Mounting the Gate Motor (con’t)
Loosely attach the mechanical latch swing arm bracket to the bottom rail of the farm gate
approximately 800mm to 900mm from the inside of the hinge post and tighten by hand.
Place a spirit level (or a straight piece of wood with a small spirit level), on the top of the arm
bracket, level off the spirit level and mark the post on the underside of the spirit level. Measure
upwards 20mm from this mark and draw a straight line. Place the bottom edge of the mounting
cradle on this line and mark and drill the mounting holes or use the mounting template included
in these instructions. Firmly attach the mounting cradle to the post and check that the cradle is
level. Fit the drive assembly into the cradle. Ensure the washers are in place and fully tighten the
4 nuts to firmly secure the drive assembly in the mounting cradle. Remove the mechanical latch
swing arm bracket from the gate.
