are present.
Necessary Tools:
The following tools may be necessary to install the Gate opener. You will need
screwdrivers, an electric drill, wire cutters and a wire stripper, a socket set, and possibly access to a welder.
When install the opener, you should build a concrete pad to support the base plate of opener in order to
maintain proper stability.
The installation proceeds are as follows:
1.
Dig a hole for a concrete pad which should
be approximately 600 x 320 x 350mm (24
〞
x 13
〞
x 14
〞
). It may protrude 100mm (4”)
above ground and 250mm (10”) in depth
underground. Increase the pad height if
necessary to protect the system from
flooding, heavy snow etc.
2.
Prepare one or more conduits for the
electrical cables before pouring concrete.
Remember that cable conduits have to pass
through the hole in the base plate.
3.
Pour concrete and before it starts to
harden, check that it is parallel to the gate
leaf and perfectly level.
4.
The four anchor bolts must be set into the
concrete when it is poured, make sure the
position of anchor bolts was placed
according to the position of mounting holes
on the base plate before concrete become
harden.
5.
Mount the base plate to the concrete pad.
6.
Place the opener onto base plate. Check that it is perfectly parallel to the gate, and then screw the four
bolts and washers supplied. It's only temporary installation. Further adjustment will be required when install
the rack.
Manual Operation
The opener should be put in the manual (emergency release) position before fitting the rack, installing the
opener and limit switch. The process is as follows:
1) Take off the rubber stopple.
2) Insert the Release Key
