GATE OPERATOR INSTALLATION

Limits Setup

STEP 1

Position the Limit Cams:

1.  Position the gate to either the open or closed limit position.

2.  Rotate the corresponding Limit Cam until the Limit Switch is engaged. The Limit 

Switch will “click” when engaged.

!

 

TECHNICAL TIP:

 The Limit Cam can be rotated by hand with limited resistance and does 

not need to be tightened further.

3.  Repeat step 1 for the opposite limit position.

4. Complete the electrical installation on the following pages.

5.  Run the operator 2 full cycles without interruption to determine if further limit 

adjustments are required.

RED

BROWN

ORANGE

YELLOW 

CLOSE LIMIT

OPEN LIMIT

Adjust the Bolt to

make firm contact 

with the Primary Arm

Tighten the Bolt Nuts

against the Bracket

STEP 2

Adjust the Positive Stop

1.  Run the gate to the Closed Limit position 

and adjust the Positive Stop Bolt to 
securely contact the Primary Arm. Tighten 
the securing nuts to the Bracket.

!

 

TECHNICAL TIP:

 The Positive Stop is 

designed to precisely align the gate(s) 
closed. You may remove the Positive 
Stop that corresponds to the Open Limit 
position.
