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 47 x 40 x 35cm (18.5
〞
x 16
〞
x 14
〞
). It may
protrude 10 cm (4”) above ground and 25 cm (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 pour 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.
It's only temporary installation. Further
adjustment will be required when install the
chain.
