1. DESCRIPTION AND SPECIFICATION
The FAAC 418 is an automatic gate operator for swinging gate leafs. It is designed for residential applications and can accommo-
date gate leafs up to 12 ft long. The self-contained S418 operator consists of an electric motor that drives a worm screw housed in
an aluminum casing.
The non reversable mechanism guarantees the mechanical locking of the leaf when the motor is not operating. An easy-to-use
release device allows to move the leaf in case of malfunction or a power outage. The rear bracket is adjustable to gurantee maxi-
mum flexifility during the installation phase.
The S418 Operator is designed and built to automate vehicular swing leaf gates. Do not use for any other purpose.
