Figure 15 Determining Drive Arm Length for Standard Pedestal & Outward Opening Gates
If L = 934 and S = 333
then D = 934 - 333
therefore D (drive arm length) = 300.5mm
(Do NOT cut the drive arm to this length allow an
extra 50mm i.e. cut drive arm D = 350mm. See Fig. 16)

The easiest way of measuring L and S is to hold the zero mark of the
tape measure on the middle of the output shaft, and then to read off
L and S at the gate bracket.

Installations:
Determine the drive arm length (D) from
Figures 10 and 11. DO NOT CUT THE DRIVE
ARM TO THIS LENGTH. Cut the drive arm at
least 50mm longer than D. The cut length
therefore = D + 50mm (see Fig. 16)
Fit the Drive Arm
11. Once the drive arm has been cut to length,
regardless of installation type, put the gearbox
into manual mode (See Page 43)
12. Fit the drive arm and connecting arm assembly
to the motor output shaft as in Fig. 20, using the
supplied M10 or M12 bolt and washer (Check
that the flats on the shaft and clamp line up
before tightening up the bolt.)
Set the Connecting Arm
13. Prepare the connecting arm for installation, by
moving the inner tube to the retracted position
(see Fig. 17). Turn the inner tube clockwise
until the ski-pole lock starts to tighten. Do not
over tighten, as that will make the final
adjustment more difficult.
14. Open the gate, and possibly swing the drive
arm slightly, until the connecting arm can be
fitted into the gate bracket using the clevis pin
(see Fig. 19)
15. Using the gate as a lever, slowly close the
gate to extend the connecting arm. When the
gate is completely closed, the hinge points
of the connecting and drive arms must be
in a straight line (see Fig. 22).
16. In a double leaf gate system, ensure that both
gates are correctly aligned in the closed
position.
17. Carefully unhook the connecting arm from the
gate bracket making sure it's length is not
altered. Hand tighten the connecting arm ski-
pole lock and reconnect it to the gate bracket.
18. Manually operate the gate leaf and check that it opens sufficiently.
If the gate opens too little, lengthen the drive arm by 10mm and readjust t he connecting arm by
restarting from step 14.
