AR2000 SLIDING GATE OPERATOR
6
Conduit
In order to protect the wires, conduit must be preset into the concrete when it is poured. Wires
within the conduit shall be located or protected so that no damage can result from contact with
any rough or sharp part. If you have installed an external button switch, we advise you to use
two conduits: one for main power wire, another one for control wire. Always separate power
wires from control wires.
Concrete pad
The base unit of the gate operator requires a concrete pad in order to maintain proper stability.
The concrete pad should be approximately 400mm x 250mm x 200mm deep in order to provide
for adequate operation.
Anchors
You can use the anchor bolts, anchors, washers, and nuts. These anchors must be set into the
concrete when it is poured, or you can use wedge anchors.
