INSTALLATION STEP 2 INSTALL THE OPERATOR Attach the operator to the concrete pad with appropriate fasteners. The gate operator should be installed near the front roller of the gate or near the back of the gate (in the OPEN position). The space between the gate and the output sprocket must be a minimum of 4 inches. MOUNTING FOOTPRINT 10.4" (26.4 cm) 4 Concrete Anchors 1/2" x 3 1/2" 6" Above Ground Below the frost line. Check all national and local codes.
INSTALLATION STEP 3 ATTACH THE CHAIN DO NOT run the operator until instructed. 1. Manually open the gate and line up the front bracket so the chain will be level with the idler pulley and parallel to the ground. Weld the front bracket in this position. 2. Manually close the gate and line up the rear bracket so the chain will be level with the idler pulley and parallel to the ground. Weld the rear bracket in this position. 3. Route the chain through the operator. 4.
INSTALLATION To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate: • Locate entrapment protection devices to protect in BOTH the open and close gate cycles. • Locate entrapment protection devices to protect between moving gate and RIGID objects, such as posts, walls, pillars, or columns. • ALL gate operator systems REQUIRE two independent entrapment protection systems for each entrapment zone. • Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed to protect anyone who may come near a moving gate.
INSTALLATION STEP 4 continued... INSTALL ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION There are three options for wiring the entrapment protection devices depending on the specific device and how the device will function. Refer to the specific entrapment protection device manual for more information. These entrapment protection device inputs are for monitored devices, which include pulsed photoelectric sensors, resistive edge sensors, and pulsed edge sensors.
INSTALLATION STEP 5 To Operator EARTH GROUND ROD Use the proper earth ground rod for your local area. The ground wire must be a single, whole piece of wire. Never splice two wires for the ground wire. If you should cut the ground wire too short, break it, or destroy its integrity, replace it with a single wire length. 1. Install the earth ground rod within 3 feet of the operator. Check national and local codes for proper depth 2. Run wire from the earth ground rod to the operator.
INSTALLATION STEP 6 continued... POWER WIRING 1. Make sure the AC power switch on the operator is OFF (the AC power switch will turn the incoming 120/240 Vac power ON or OFF). 2. Turn off the AC power from the main power source circuit breaker. 3. Run the AC power wires to the junction box on the operator. 4. Remove the junction box cover. 5. Connect the green wire to the earth ground rod and AC ground using a wire nut. NOTE: The earth ground rod can be grounded to the chassis. 6.
INSTALLATION STEP 7 DUAL GATES ONLY There are two options for dual gate communication: wired or wireless. Follow the directions according to your application. Do not use wired and wireless communication simultaneously. WIRELESS DUAL GATES TO ACTIVATE THE WIRELESS FEATURE: 1. Choose an operator to be the network primary operator. All wireless accessories will need to be programmed to the primary operator. NOTE: We recommend that all accessories and board configurations are set on the primary operator. 2.
INSTALLATION STEP 7 continued... DUAL GATE WIRE TYPE (SHIELDED TWISTED PAIR CABLE) 22AWG up to 200 feet (61 m) DUAL GATES ONLY 18AWG - 200-1000 feet (61-305 m) Wire must be rated at 30 Volt minimum WIRED DUAL GATES Before digging, contact local underground utility locating companies. Use PVC conduit to prevent damage to cables. 1. Disconnect ALL power to the operator. 2. Trench across driveway to bury the shielded twisted pair cable. 3.
INSTALLATION To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH: • Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons (particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or KILLED by a moving gate. • Too much force on gate will interfere with proper operation of safety reversal system. • NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to move gate. • NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or sticking gate.
INSTALLATION STEP 9 (continued) ADJUST THE HANDING AND LIMITS ERASE THE HANDING 1. To erase the handing, press and hold the OPEN LEFT and OPEN RIGHT buttons simultaneously (5 seconds) until both the OPEN LEFT and OPEN RIGHT LEDs blink rapidly and the operator beeps. 2. Release the buttons and the OPEN LEFT and OPEN RIGHT LEDs will blink slowly indicating the handing will need to be set.
