2.1 Preliminary checks
To ensure a correctly operating automated system, the
structure of the existing gate or gate to be built must satisfy
the following requirements:
• Leaf dimensions are within the limits
• The gate swings level
• Smooth, uniform leaf movement, without any irregular
friction during the entire travel
• Existing hinges in good condition
• Positive stops are provided in the fully opened and closed
positions
• There is a minimum clearance between the bottom
edge of gate and ground. See Fig. 6a (where ‘S’ =
thickness of guide bracket)
The FAAC 770 is an electromechanical operator for swing
gates. It is designed for in-ground installation and therefore
does not alter the appearance of the gate.
The supplied support box allows you to setup the gate before
actually installing the operator.
The 770 electromechanical operator is not reversible, so it
ensures a mechanical stop and eliminates the need for an
electric lock.
The 770 Operator is designed and manufactured to au-
tomate vehicular swing gates. Do not use for any other
purpose.

1.1 Technical Specifications
1.2 Electrical Setup
2. INSTALLATION
1.3 Dimensions
Always separate the connection cables of the low voltage
accessories from the high voltage power cables. Use separate
conduits to avoid interference.
The installer is responsible for grounding the gate and operator
systems, for providing the main power breaker switch, and for
making sure that the entire gate system meets all applicable
electrical codes.
Make sure to locate all controls that operate the gate system at
least 6 ft away from any moving parts.
