Your gate should be hung level and move freely by hand in
both directions before attaching the operator drive chain.
Slide the gate to the fully open position. Line up the slot
in the chain mounting bracket with the bottom of the idler
wheel on the operator. Mark the leading edge of the gate
frame using the chain mounting bracket as a template. Drill
Slide the gate to the fully closed position and mount the
other chain mounting bracket to the rear edge of the gate
frame in the same way.
Attach the chain to both chain mounting brackets as shown
5a. Brackets should support the chain but must not hit the
between the chain supports, as shown in Figure 6.
