front of this manual (pages 4-11) for mounting requirements and limitations.
Temporarily mount arm in desired position determined by next page’s dimensions. Manually swing gate to the OPEN and CLOSE
positions. When satisfied with gate positions, permanently mount brackets making sure that arm is LEVEL.

If brackets are going to be welded to the gate and/or wall, only tack weld or clamp the brackets with the arm attached. Protect
the arm from welding sparks during tack welding. Remove arm before completely welding around the brackets. Make sure
the brackets are level when tack welding them! The arm will not operate properly if not level.
Welding Brackets to Surfaces
Gate Support Bar
A support bar that spans the entire length of the gate must be installed to keep the pickets from bending. Do not mount the
front bracket directly to gate pickets!
Flex Conduit
