Mounting the Operator
Step 11
Attach the operator to the securely bolted post bracket assembly and gate bracket using clevis pins, bushings, and hairpin
clips, or optional Pin Locks (see
Accessory Catalog
). Verify that the operator is level and adjust the post bracket assembly if
necessary.
Installation of the Closed Position Stop
The
GTO/PRO SW 1500
firmly holds the gate in the closed position using the positive stop plate. The positive
stop helps stabilize the gate leaf in the closed position. To further enhance the stability and security of your gate,
install the optional
GTO/PRO® Automatic Gate Lock
(
see
Accessory Catalog
).

Step 12
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.
