3. Photo Sensor
4. 24V DC gate opener
5. In-ground Loop

CHECKS BEFORE INSTALLATION

Before proceeding with the installation check the following:

1. Check that the motor mounting position on the gate pillar can be done with the measurements in Figure 1 and Graph 1
2. Be sure that the gate moves freely
3. There are no obstacles in the moving gate area
4. Hinges are properly positioned and greased
5. There should be no friction between the gate leaf’s
6. There should be no friction with the ground while moving the gates
7. Check that the gate structure is suitable to install automatic gate motors
8. “C” value is 140mm
9. “D” can be measured from the gate easily
10. “A” = “C” + “D”
11. The value of “B” can be calculated from the value of “A” and the leaves opening angle

**Please make sure “B” and “A” are similar or the same in value that the leaves can be operated smoothly, also to reduce the burden of the motor.

INSTALLATION OF REAR BRACKET

Step 1: Before securing the rear bracket to the pillar check the front bracket can be welded to a solid point on the gate leaf.

• Fully close the gate.
• Connect the rear and front brackets to the motor.
• Hold the rear bracket onto the pillar with the calculated A and B values.
• Move the motor in a vertical direction until the fixing zone is in a solid area of the gate leaf for the front bracket.

Step 2: Then fix the rear bracket to the pillar.

INSTALLATION OF FRONT BRACKET

For proper operation, the front bracket should be fixed so the motor has the correct angle. Use Table 1 to
calculate the location of the front bracket.

Table 1

MOTOR FIXING

While the motor is disengaged, remove the wire cover and fix the rear bracket with the pin. The pin will slot into the hole with the threaded side up as shown in no.1. No screw is required to hold the pin in place. Attach the front bracket to the drive unit with the pin (A) and the set screw (B) provided as shown in no.2

Make sure the motor is mounted in a horizontal position, especially in these positions:

1. Gate in “CLOSE” position
2. Gate in “OPEN” position
3. Gate at “45° angle” position

Prior to welding the bracket on the gate leaf (if necessary), cover the gate opener to prevent damages from sparks.
