Installation Initial Setup 1. Ensure that your gate does not exceed your model's weight capacity and includes the following features or their equivalent. Track and Wheels End Catch Guide Rollers End Stop Figure 1 2. Ensure that your gate does not exceed 40 feet (12 m) in length. If it exceeds 20 feet (6 m) in length, you will need to purchase additional ANSI #41 chain and connect it to those provided with your device.
4. Ensure that the gate opener will have a suitable location on firm level ground at least one foot (30 cm) inside the chain bracket on the nearest end of the gate. The default settings for this motor are for placement on the right side of your gate when facing out from your property. It can be installed on the left side but some settings will need to be reversed for some functions like automatic closure to work properly.

Base Installation Your motor MUST be firmly secured for safe use. Do not attempt to use it loose or only secured to thin pavement. 1. Use the two horizontal mounting plates (I) to brace the two vertical mounting plates (J) as shown. Use the M6×20 bolts (N), spring (W) and flat washers (T), and nuts (Q) to connect the plates so that both vertical plates face inwards on top and the large holes for the foundation bolts face out. 2.
Motor Installation M10 Nut 1. Remove the plastic casing from the motor (A). 2. Connect the motor to the base using the M10 bolts (P) with their spring (Y) and flat washers (V) and nuts (S). Adjust the placement of the bolts in their slots to match the expected path of the chain as shown. Normally, the path of the chain will be 1¼ to 1½ inches (32–39 mm) from the inner edge of the gate.

Chain Installation 1. Close the gate. 2. Install the gate brackets (H) at or near each end of your gate. They should face in towards your property and be located at the same height as the two smaller sprockets on the motor. The nearest bracket should be at least one foot (30 cm) away from the motor. Figure 13 Use the square bolts (G) or a similar fastener around the gate posts, adjusting as needed to fit them securely. Connect the brackets' components as shown.
3. Fasten one of the chains (E) to the tie rod of the bracket farther from the motor by opening, positioning, and resealing its final chain link. Tie Rod If necessary, repeat the process to connect the two chains to one another or even to add additional lengths of chain. ONLY use ANSI #41 chain with this device and do not use any chain longer than 40 feet (12 m). Chain Link Chain Figure 16 4.
Magnetic Limit Installation 1. Place the motor in manual mode. Move the gate to the position you want it to go to when fully open. 2. Find the post on the open gate about 6–8 inches (15–20 cm) farther away from your driveway than the middle of the motor. 3.98 in. (10.1 cm) Using this gate opener without its magnets in the correct position risks damage to the motor and to the gate, including possible derailment. 3. Find the position on that post exactly 3.98 inches (10.

Initial Testing Left-Mounted 1. If the motor is located on the right side of your gate, the direction switch on its circuit board should be toggled to Forward (FWD). If it is located on the left side, toggle the switch to Reverse (REV). 2. Clear any obstacles from the gate’s path and keep all bystanders away. 3. Activate the power to your motor. The POWER and IR indicator lights should come on. 4. Test the infrared sensors by blocking the path between the two sensors with any obstacle.
Remote and Wireless Keypad Pairing 1. Up to 23 additional remote or wireless control buttons can be paired to the gate’s circuit board. Be sure that they use the 433.92 MHz radio band or can be configured to do so. NEVER pair the same button to 2 different gates or devices at the same time. Disconnect the motor from power, open its covers to expose its circuit board, Figure 26 and restore power. 2. Press the pairing button (AN). The remote indicator light (LEARN) should come on. 3.
Troubleshooting Potential Problems Possible Solution(s) The gate does not open or close normally and no indicator lights activate on the circuit board, even when pressing the TEST button. Verify that the power supply is functioning properly. Check that the fuse is not blown. Have a certified electrician rewire your system. Remove any obstacles which might be in the gate's path. The door opens but does not close.
