m Disconnect Power from the gate
operator!
m The tail end of the gate should
extend approximately 24" beyond the edge
of the driveway. If this is not the case, an
extension tail will need to be added to the
gate. This will give room for the gate opera-
tor. Make the extension tail 24" X 24" as
shown. If the gate has not yet been fabri-
cated, add 24" to the length of the gate.
m If no concrete surface exists to
attach the gate operator to, make a cement
pad 16" X 24" X 10" (4" above ground).
Place the shortest pad edge even with the
driveway edge. Place the longer edge of the
pad 1" away from the gate.
m If the steel mounting stand will be
used, place the shortest edge of the stand 4"
from the driveway edge and place the
longest edge of the stand 4-1/2" away from
the gate. The top of the steel stand may sit
on the ground or the stand may be elevated
to keep the operator above snow, flooding
etc. Make a post hole and cement the stand
in place, making sure the stand is level and
square to the gate.
