Installation Pointers
The proper position of the Primary and Secondary Brackets (post bracket)
and gate bracket is crucial to the efciency and leverage of the gate opener.
Attention needs to be paid to both its correct height and its position on the
post in respect to the relationship between your gate hinge pivot point and
the motor pivot point on the bracket. Once you have determined the general
desired height of the actuator arm, position the bracket and take note of the
dimensions.
Its best to locate the gate opener arms in approximately the middle between
the top and bottom of the gate. This will prevent the gate from twisting or
exing and provide a more even pull and push over the entire gate.
Pull-to-Open and Push-to-Open (Terminology) see page 17
• For pull-to-open gate - Arm is fully retracted when the gate is fully opened
(gate pulls inwards)
• For push-to-open gate - Arm is fully extended when the gate is fully
opened (gate pushes outwards)
Mounting of the Control Box
Select a at and sturdy surface for the mounting of the control box.
Care must be taken to ensure that the mounting screws and holes on the
control panel are
properly sealed to prevent water seepage and insects into the control box
(silicon around screws).
Water damage or insect damage to the control board will void your warranty.
The mounting point guides located in your control box serves only as
reference and a guide for your installation. We recommend that the mounting
points be lower then the control board, so that in the unlikely event that water
seeps in, it will not ow onto the control board.
