To align the operator to the gate and bolt it down:
1. Remove the gate operator cover and place the operator on the concrete pad. Position the operator as determined in
“Gate Operator Location. Make sure the gate and operator are parallel and level with each other.
2. Mark the mounting holes and remove the operator. Drill the mounting holes to the required depth and diameter for the
sleeve anchors being used. It is recommended to use 3/8” x 4” sleeve anchors. The use of sleeve anchors allows
greater flexibility and makes the installation and alignment much easier.
3. Clean the mounting holes and install the sleeves. Position the operator over the anchors. Recheck to make sure the
gate and operator are parallel and level with each other. Tighten the anchor bolts to securely hold the operator.

1. Make sure the power switch is OFF before connecting the arm assembly.
2. Place the Arm Connector over Output Shaft.
3. Manually move the gate to align the arm with the Output Shaft and insert the Alignment Pin.
4. Move the Release Handle down to tighten. The release handle should be tightened so the arm connector does not slip
on the output shaft during gate operation
5. The Release Handle Nut Plate may be removed to adjust the Release Handle position if needed. Reconnect the plate
when adjusted.
6. Attach the top Arm Cap Cover.
