3. Check position of operator and chain brackets
1). The chain brackets must be mounted to the same height as the chain on the idler wheels.
2). The operator must be parallel to the gate.
3). Make sure there is 1” distance at least between the chain box and the gate after you position the base
plate.
Installation of the Limit Switch
Before install limit switch, make sure the gate operator is put in manual operation. (the clutch connected with
gear shaft is disengaged) and the mains power supply is disconnected.
Position the two Magnet Components approximately on the gate and move the gate by hand to fix them in
place.
Fit magnets bracket
Push the gate fully closed by hand. Locate and install the magnet bracket so that the operator will stop at the
desired close position when the close limit switch approaches it.
Push the gate fully open by hand. Locate and install the magnet bracket so that the operator will stop at the
desired open position when the open limit switch approaches it.
The higher magnet component must be installed at left side and lower magnet component must be
installed at right side from the view inside of property.
Finally adjust the magnet to the proper position
by moving the gate with the motor. The magnet should be .39 - .59 “away from the magnetic limit switch. If it
is too far away, the switch will fail to work. The distance between the magnet and the operator should be 1/2”
(12mm) with the operator cover on. Adjust the position of the magnet until the positions of the opening and
closing meet the requirement.
