Determining The Mounting Position
of The Post Bracket Assembly
Step PTO-1:
With the gate closed, adjust the post bracket assembly and the
gate bracket until the operator is level. While holding the
operator level, use C-clamps to temporarily keep these parts in
their respective positions on the fence post and gate.

Open Position Stop
Retracted Position (gate closed)
Extended Position (gate open)
Step PTO-2:
While gate is closed, stand inside the gate next to the fence
post. Using the setback template (insert) measure 4
1
/
2"
back from center of hinge, then make a 90
º
angle toward
the gate and measure 4
1
/
2"
. This is the point where either
one of the holes at the end of the post pivot bracket should
be. You will need to rotate the post pivot bracket or the
entire post bracket assembly to align it with the square
angle of the template.
NOTE: When you move the post pivot bracket, be sure
one of the post bracket holes is aligned with the rest of the
assembly (center hole should already have bolt through it).
Flipping the Post Pivot Bracket gives more position
options.
After verifying that you have complied with the
4
1
/
2" x 4 1
/
2"
setback, insert the
5
/
16
" x 1
3
/
4"
bolt through
the aligned holes of the post bracket and post pivot bracket
and fasten it with the
5
/
16
" washer and nut.
Round Post
Post Pivot Bracket can be moved to
achieve the 4 1/2" x 4 1/2" dimensions.
Push to Open Installation
Swinging gates shall not open into public access areas!
A "Push-to-Open" gate opens out from the property.
A Push-to-Open Kit is required for this type of installation
(see Accessory Catalog). If you have a pull-to-open gate (gate
opens into the property), return to page 12; step 5.
The operator is installed while the gate is in the closed position.
