!!4. Using a tape measure, snap line or some-
thing else straight, draw a line where the full
closed point of the gates will be. Then from the
center of that line measure in towards the prop-
erty 1 inch. This will be where the arms in the
fully extended position will mount to the gate.
(Second example to the right)
NOTE: Why do this you may ask. This is be-
cause even though the arms have reached
their full extension momentum of the gate
will carry the gate an inch further by just
turning the base gears of the operator.
5. Manually release the opener arms. Do this
by removing the black cap o the top, inserting
the release key and turning it until the gears are free turning.
6. With the arms still fully extended attach the gate mounting bracket to the end of the arm using
the provided nut and bolt. Insert the base of the opener in the column bracket and place the gate
bracket against the gate while the gate is set at an inch open. This will be the correct mounting
position for the gate bracket. After attaching the bracket, be sure to relock the operator arm for
regular operation.
