The 2000XLS Gate Operator firmly holds the gate in the closed position using the closed
position stop plate. The closed position stop plate helps stabilize the gate leaf in the
closed position. To further enhance the stability and security of your gate, install the
optional GTO Automatic Gate Lock (see Accessory Catalog).
Step 1
Remove hairpin, clevis pin, and washer from front
mount and close the gate (remember to support
operator). Fasten the closed position stop plate to
the end of the gate frame on the gate centerline,
but do not tighten it completely. Slide the stop
plate toward the fence post until they touch (see
illustration). Once you have moved the stop
plate to the correct position, tighten its hardware
completely.
Use the appropriate hardware for your type of gate
(use U-bolts if you have a tube or chain link gate;
wood or lag screws for wood gates; etc.). This
hardware is not provided.
Step 2
Return the gate to the open position and reattach
the gate opener to the gate.
