Lay the top of the belt bracket on the belt. It has two holes
in it. Mark and drill two holes in the belt . Then put the
bolts through the bolt bracket assembly to hold the brack-
et to the belt.
Attach the assembled belt bracket to the belt
attachment bolt.
Run the belt over the idlers and under the mechanized
gear with the belt teeth facing up.
Repeat gate bracket and belt bracket steps on the other
side of the gate to attach the other end of the belt to the
gate. The belt may need to be cut down to be tight if you
gate is not 15 feet long including tail. Do not cut the belt
until you have run the belt through the gears to account
for the length needed for this.
Make your final tightening adjustments on the belt. The
belt should not have excessive sag in it (no more than 2
inch variance from furthest bracket to opener). To tighten
the belt after mounting, move the nuts on the belt attach-
ment bolt.
