Determining the Mounting Position
of the Post Bracket Assembly and the Gate Bracket
Step 5
With the gate in the open position (up to 110º from its closed position), and the opener fully retracted,
adjust the post bracket assembly and gate bracket until the opener is level. While holding the opener
level, use C-clamps to
temporarily
keep the post bracket assembly and gate bracket in their respective
positions on the fence post and gate.
Step 3
Insert the
3
/
8
" x 2" bolt
through the center hole
of the post brackets
and post pivot bracket
as shown. Fasten a
3
/
8
" washer,
3
/
8
" lock
washer and
3
/
8
" nut on
the end of the bolt. DO
NOT
overtighten
the nut
because the post pivot
bracket will have to be
adjusted later.
Step 4
Attach post bracket assembly and gate bracket to the opener with the clevis pins and bushings. Secure the
clevis pins with hairpin clips.

NOTE:
The following steps are
intended for
pull-to-open
gate
installations. If you are mounting
your
opener on a
push-to-
open gate
(
e.g., a gate on a
sloped driveway) you will need
to purchase a
Push To Open
bracket
(FM148)
(see Accessory
catalog).

Open Installation
