Once you have setup your post bracket and secondary bracket, then secure
the actuator arm to the secondary bracket with the bolt supplied.
With the gate in the open position and the arm fully extended, attach the
standard gate bracket to the actuator arm (don’t secure with bolt just yet) then
swing the arm with the gate bracket to the position point on your gate (which
should be close to your template marking).
If possible, clamp your gate bracket to the gate, see pg.30 (ensure that the
actuator arm is level). Now do a test run with the motor cables direct to a 12v
battery (if you were supplied with a battery in your kit then use this, otherwise
any 12v battery will do).
Attach the red cable to your negative terminal and blue cable to your positive
terminal to retract the actuator arm till your gate is fully closed or max
retraction has been reached (which ever comes rst).
If your gate fully closes with no binding (see binding image pg 32) on the rear
cap and secondary bracket and your arm is not running parallel (refer to page
31 - 32) with the gate at any point (open or closed) then you can go ahead and
secure your gate bracket to the gate with the mounting bolts supplied.
If your setup doesn’t comply with these checks then you will need to adjust
your pivot point at the secondary bracket and repeat the above process.
