Installation Overview
Preparation for Installation
There are two installation types for the gate opener, Pull-to-Open and Push- to-Open. In the Push-to-Open installation, gate opens out from the property. A Push-To-Open Bracket (PSO part) is required to be used for each gate.
NOTE: Ensure the gate does not open into public areas. One more person will help when installing.
The gate opener is mounted to the gate and to the gate post. Both round and square posts can be used because the Post Brackets are curved. When mounting the Post Brackets, use bolts long enough to pass through the entire post. M10 x 200 bolts are included. Concrete anchors are not provided. When mounting the Post Brackets to wooden posts, a larger-size washer or metal plate should be used between the bolts and the wooden post to ensure the stability of the fastening hardware. If the post is smaller than 6″ diameter or square, it should be made of metal and set in cement to ensure its stability.

Install the Opener on the Gate ­ for Pull to Open
The position of Post Bracket is very important. The following illustrations and tables are required to determine the proper mounting position for the Post Bracket. The tables show the maximum opening angle of the gate for a given A and B. For example, if A is 16cm and B is 14cm, the maximum opening angle of the gate is 110° Pull-to-Open Installation — Gate in Closed position (Moving- Rod is extended)
1. Insert the bolts through the holes of post bracket and post pivot bracket as shown. Place washers and nuts on the bottom of the bolts and hand tighten.

2. Attach the gate bracket and post bracket assy. to the opener by inserting a clevis pin. Secure the clevis pins using the hairpin clips.
3. Open the release hole plug on the top of the gate opener, insert the release key, and turn the key 90° clockwise. This releases the motor and allows the push-pull rod to be manually extended and retracted. To restore normal operation, turn the key 90° counterclockwise. 4. With the opener fully retracted and with the gate in the fully open position (for Pull-to-Open installation), place the opener with the Post Bracket Assy. and Gate Bracket on the gate post and the gate. While holding the gate opener in the level position, temporarily secure it with two C-clamps.
10

5. Make sure that there is a minimum clearance of 2.5cm between the gate and the opener and that the opener and the Post Pivot Bracket are not binding in both the gate-open and gate-closed positions. If there is not at least 2.5cm of clearance or if the opener and the Post Pivot Bracket are binding, rotate the Post Pivot Bracket and/or move the Post Bracket Assy. to obtain the minimum clearance and eliminate the binding.
11

6. Sign the bolt-hole point on the gate post and gate. Do this by placing a punch or a sign in the middle of each bolt slot on the post bracket and the gate bracket. It allows slight adjustments to the post bracket. Then remove the opener and brackets assy. by taking off the C-clamps. 7. Drill 10.5 mm diameter holes through the post and the gate at the marked locations. 8. Attach the post bracket assemblies to the gate post by inserting M10 x 200 bolts through each post bracket assy. and the drilled holes in the gate post. Fasten each bolt with one 10 washer, one 10 lock washer, and one 10 nut. 9. Attach the gate brackets to each gate by inserting two M10 x 75 bolts through the gate brackets and the drilled holes in the gates. Fasten each bolt with one 10 lock washer, and one 10 nut.
10. Cut off any part of the bolts that extend beyond the tightened nuts. 11. With the opener fully retracted and with the gate in the fully open position (for Pull-to-Open installation), insert a clevis pin through the gate opener and the Post Pivot Bracket and insert another clevis pin through the gate opener and the Gate Bracket. Secure each clevis pin with a hairpin clip.

If the arm opens halfway and fails to get to the desired open position, slightly slide the limit switch B outwards. Please repeat the above steps, until the arm could arrive and automatically stop at the desired open position. Then tighten the screw firmly. Limit setting for master gate is finished now. The slave gate is totally the same.
Setting of the Control Board
WARNING: Ensure the gate opener is Power Off when you make any adjustment of the gate opener. Keep away from the gate during you set the gate opener system in case of the unexpected gate moving. Carefully adjust the DIP switches to avoid the risk of machine damage and injury or death. Always ask the help of professional technician /electrician if you have any question. 1. DIP Switches The DIP switches are used to select pull/push to open, enable/disable auto close function, enable/disable open interval between the master and slave gate opener, enable/disable close interval between the master and slave gate opener and enable/disable photo beam function.
DIP Switch #1: Select push/pull to open If the gate opens into the property (pull to open), the DIP Switch is set to OFF (factory default setting). If your gate opens out from the property (push to open) the DIP Switch must be set to the ON position. Factory default setting is OFF. DIP Switch #2: Auto close function enabled/disabled ON ­ Auto close function enabled OFF ­ Auto close function disabled Set the switch #2 to ON to enable the auto close function. Factory default setting is OFF.
Important Note: When the auto close function is enabled, the photocell sensor is highly recommended to be installed with the gate opener for safety. DIP Switch #3: Enable/disable open interval between the master and slave gate opener ON ­ Open interval is enabled OFF ­Open interval is disabled Factory default setting is ON. NOTE: Open interval time can be adjusted by the OPEN DELAY potentiometer.

DIP Switch #4: Enable/disable close interval between the master and slave gate opener ON ­ Close interval is enabled OFF ­Close interval is disabled Factory default setting is ON. NOTE: Close interval time can be adjusted by the CLOSE DELAY potentiometer. DIP Switch #5: Photocell function enabled/disabled ON ­ Photocell function enabled OFF ­ Photocell function disabled You must set the switch #5 to ON to enable the photocell function if you want to use the photocell with the gate opener. Factory default setting is OFF. 2. Potentiometers There are 5 potentiometers located in the control board. They are used to adjust soft stop period, auto-close time, open interval and close interval time between master gate opener and slave gate opener, and the stall force.
Potentiometer A is used to adjust the soft stop period of the gate opener. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase the soft stop period, and turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the soft stop period. The soft stop period can be adjusted gradually from 1 to 5 seconds. Potentiometer B is used to adjust the auto close time of the gate opener. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase the auto close time, and turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the auto close time. The auto close time can be adjusted gradually from 3 to 120 seconds. Potentiometer C and potentiometer D are used to adjust the open interval and close interval time between the master gate opener and the slave gate opener respectively. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase the interval time, and turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the interval time. The interval time can be adjusted gradually from 1 to 9 seconds. Potentiometer E is used to adjust the stall force the gate opener. Turn the potentiometer clockwise to increase the stall force, and turn it counter-clockwise to decrease the stall force.

Maintenance
Warning: Disconnect power before servicing.
1. Using a clean, dry cloth to wipe the gate opener shaft, and then apply a silicone spray to reduce its friction. In cold climates where temperatures reach 1°C (30°F) or less, spray silicone on the actuator every 4~6 weeks to prevent freeze up. 2. Regularly check gate hinges to make sure gate is swinging smoothly and freely. Grease hinges if needed. 3. Check your installation periodically, as hardware and posts will shift. Brackets may need to be adjusted or hardware may need to be tightened. 4. Maintain the area around your gate. Keep the areas free of objects that can prevent the gate swinging freely. NOTES: 1. Inspection and service should always be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or suspected. 2. It is suggested that while at the site voltage readings be taken at the operator. Using a Digital Voltmeter, verify that the incoming voltage to the opener it is within ten percent of the opener’s rating. 3. Refer to the instructions on how to check gate force and sensitivity adjustments.

1. Exchange the wire connection of the 2 arms and check what will happen to the 2 arms. If the faulty arm is still faulty, then the arm itself is faulty. If the failure changes to the other arm which worked normally before, then the control board is faulty. 2. If the arm is confirmed faulty by step 1, you can connect the RED & BLACK wire of the arm to the 24Vdc battery to check if the arm could run normally. If so, then the limit switch of the arm is faulty. If the arm still can’t run, then the motor part which is inside the arm is faulty.
