Mounting Pad Installation; Mounting Pad Specifi Cations - Linear SWC Installation Manual

Mounting Pad Installation

The gate operator mounts bolted to a custom poured
concrete mounting pad. The pad supports the operator and
prevents it from twisting during operation.
An optional post mount kit is also available (P/N 2120-483)
which allows installation without a concrete mounting pad.
Mounting Pad Specifi cations
Recommended pad size is 24" x 20" x 18" deep minimum.
Pad depth should be set according to local codes and at
least as deep as frost line.
If soil conditions may cause the operator and pad to shift or
twist during operation, anti-rotation legs may be required.
Use two 6" diameter, 10" deep legs to counteract this
problem as shown.
5/8" J-bolts may be set into the concrete before it sets
following the dimensions shown, or drilled after the concrete
sets.

WARNING
The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for
vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access
opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to
promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons
will not come into contact with the vehicular gate during the
entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
WARNING
The gate must be installed in a location so that enough
clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures
when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment.
Swing gates shall not open into public areas.
✓ NOTE: Maximum gate opening angle is approximately 95 degrees,
depending on gate width. If larger opening angle is required,
non-standard positioning of the operator and modifi ed articulating
arms may be required. Contact the factory for technical information,
pricing, and availability.
