Post Mounting Instructions - Linear SWG Installation Manual

SWG OPERATOR INSTALLATION GUIDE
POST MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR MODEL
Use two 3 - 3 1/2" diameter galvanized posts and secure with concrete
footings as shown, length to be determined by local codes, frost line
depth, and soil conditions.
Attach the operator with the U-bolts, side plates and hardware pro-
vided. There are four side plates. The 3/16" side plates go on the inside
top of the operator, while the two 1/2" side plates go on the inside
bottom (see the illustration at right). The operator should be positioned
at a level to allow the arm to be installed at mid-height on the gate.
"H" dimension can vary depending on gate construction. Make sure
the posts do not protrude above the operator cabinet.
Assemble the arm components as shown on page 7.
The operator is intended for installation only on
gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be sup-
plied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian
access opening shall be designed to promote pedes-
trian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will
not come in contact with the vehicular gate during
the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
