Step 2
(fig. 29a and 29b)
NOTE:
Gate opener (actuator) must be in the fully
retracted or closed position before attaching the gate
bracket and the post mount bracket assembly.
Attach the gate bracket and the post mount bracket
assembly to the gate opener (actuator) by inserting a
clevis pin through the holes in the gate bracket and the
post push-to-open bracket. Secure the clevis pins using
the clevis pin clips.
Push-to-Open Installation
CAUTION!
Ensure the gate does not open into public
areas and does not interfere with traffic or cause traffic
hazards.
In a push-to-open installation, the gate opener (actua-
tor) is installed while the gate is in the closed position
and the gate opens out from the property.
NOTE:
The optional push-to-open bracket is longer than
the pivot bracket included with this kit, and is required
for this installation (part #GAB1).
Step 1
(fig. 28)
Assemble the post mount bracket assembly by placing
the push-to-open bracket in between the two post
brackets. Insert the 3/8” x 2” hex bolt through the cen-
ter hole of the two post brackets and the push-to-open
bracket. Place a 3/8” washer, a 3/8” lock washer, and a
3/8” hex nut on the bottom of the 3/8” x 2” hex bolt
and hand tighten.
