Using a clamp, mount the gate bracket onto the gate.  

Do not drill and bolt yet. 

 

 

Attach the operator arm to the brackets again 

 

 

With the release lever up, move the gates manually open and closed until they are in the 
desired position  

 

 

Adjust the position of the brackets as needed. This cannot be changed once finally 
drilled and bolted. Be sure the actuator is level and the gates are in the desired position. 

 

 

When the gate opens and closes to the proper position, mount the post bracket onto the 
post with bolts.   

 

-

 

Place the post bracket on the post and mark the drilling points.  Make sure the 
bracket is level.  Then drill four 3/8 holes through the hinge post and fasten the 
bracket with nuts and washers. 
 

-

 

Note:  Drilling and bolting all the way through the post is the strongest method, but 
if it is not possible to drill through the post, you could use quarter inch self-tapping 
screws.  If that is necessary, regularly check that the screws are tight. 
 

 

Drill and bolt the gate bracket permanently 
 

 

Close and lock the release lever   
 

 

There are no limits to set, so at this point the actuator is ready to be powered up and 
used. 

 
 

 

POWER  

 
Note:  In case of a power failure, the operators may be opened and closed 
manually by unlocking and lifting the release lever on top of the operator 
arm. 

 
The recommended power for this gate operator system is 110-120V AC.  
The integrated transformer steps the power down to 24V DC to operate the 
control panel and operator arms.   
 
Please make sure to shut off the power before installation or 
maintenance. 
 
The installation of the 110V AC power supply cable to the Control Box 
should be done by a qualified professional electrician.  
 
The 110V AC power cable is already attached and the cable “pigtail”
