Release the operator as shown in Fig. 3. Put the 
operator into position and attach the rear fork to the 
rear mounting bracket using the short brass pin, 
washer, and nut. 
For inward swing, pull the piston out completely and 
push back approximately ¼” (6mm). For outward swing, 

*  For A, B, and D, if you choose one 

of these values with one asterisk, 

then you must choose the other 

values with one asterisk. 
 
 
**  For A, B, and D, if you choose 

one of these values with two 

asterisks, then you must choose the 

push the piston in completely and pull back out 
approximately ¼” (6mm). 
 

 

 

Note: 

Be sure that the operator is level and that 

the gate is against the close positive stop. 

 
Hold the front mounting bracket flush against the gate.  
Mark the location of the front mounting bracket. 
Remove the operator from the gate.  Remove the front 
mounting bracket from the swivel joint. 
 
  

 

Note: 

Clamping the front mounting bracket at the 

 marked location before checking the swing, as 
 instructed below, will ensure proper location of the 
 front mounting bracket. 

 
 Bolt or weld the front mounting bracket to the marked 
location on the gate. 
 
  

WARNING! 

Do not weld the front mounting 

bracket with the operator attached. Doing so will  
seriously damage the operator
