Install “Physical Gate Stops
Physical gate stops MUST be installed at each end of your gate. If the
magnetic switch on the motor fails to stop the gate cycle, the gate stops will
prevent the gate from falling off the guide rollers and causing possible injury or
damage.
Installing Motor
Preparation of the concrete ground surface (base) for motor mounting
Make sure that the ground surface for the motor installation is solid and level.
A good base is paramount to the proper operation of the gate opener
system. If installing cables, place these 300mm from your wall/post and
approx. 220mm in from the corner of the wall/post. The motor mounting plate
is 170mm deep x 270mm wide. Position the motor mounting plate (
side nearest to the gate) approx. 150-160mm from the wall/post and approx.
50mm in from the post driveway corner point.

Cables from the control panel to the motor can be
per-embedded
in the base
should concealed wiring be preferred. Check with you
r
electrician. You may
have to space the bottom of the base plate with spacers to gain some height
to run wires and cables. Again check with your electrician.
Prepare for motor cable. Optional
devices
such as wired keypad, photo
beams etc. use telecom cable, cat-5 or cat-6
