Installation of the Opener
Caution:
*Be sure that the opener is installed in a level
and paralleled position. Improper installation
could result in property damage, severe injury,
and/or death.
* Before starting installation, ensure that there
is no point of friction during the entire
movement of the gate and there is no danger of
derailment.
* Ensure that the safety side rollers are present.
Necessary Tools: The following tools may be
necessary to install the Gate opener. You will need
screwdrivers, an electric drill, wire cutters and a
wire stripper, a socket set, and possibly access to a
welder.
When install the opener, you should build a
concrete pad to support the base plate of opener in
order to maintain proper stability.
The installation proceeds are as follows:
1.Assemble the Base Plate and fix the Opener to
the Base Plate.
2.Dig a hole for a concrete pad which should be
approximately 60 x 32 x 35cm (24〞x 13〞x 14〞).
It may protrude 10 cm (4”) above ground and 25 cm (10”) in depth underground. Increase the pad height if
necessary to protect the system from flooding, heavy snow etc.
3. Prepare one or more conduits for the electrical cables before pour concrete. Remember that cable
conduits have to pass through the hole on the base.
4. Pour concrete and before it starts to harden, check that it is parallel to the gate leaf and perfectly level.
5. Mark the position of four expansion anchors according to the position of mounting hole on the base plate.
Double check your marking, move the base plate and drill the 4 holes using a 14mm (9/16”) masonry bit. Put
the 4 expansion anchors (provided) into the holes and firmly tighten.
6. Mount the base plate to the concrete Pad and firmly tighten, enabling the opener is firmly secured
on the concrete pad during the whole gate travel.
Manual Operation
You can open the gate by manual when power failure. And the opener should be put in the manual
(emergency release) position before fitting the
chain, installing the opener and limit switch. The
