FAAC Model S418 Swing Gate Operator
3.3 INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS
Determine the assembly position of the operator, referring to Figure 4 and related table. It is a good idea at this stage to choose
whether or not you want to use the built in mechanical positive stops; eliminating the mechanical stops increases the working stroke of
the operator and values A and B must be changed.
