Determining The Mounting Position of The Post Bracket Assembly

Push-to-Open Installation
Swinging gates shall not open into public access areas! Review IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
A "Push-to-Open" gate opens out from the property. The operator is installed on this type of gate while in the closed (not
open) position. Because every gate installation varies, the push-to-open installation of the GTO/PRO 2000 and GTO/PRO
2200 will need to be customized. In most cases this only requires drilling two new holes in the post bracket.
The operator and brackets are installed on the gate post in the same way as pull-to-open installations. The post bracket is
mounted at the inside edge of the post. The post pivot brackets are attached with one bolt at the pivot point and the
operator(s) is attached at the rear mount. See pages 11-14, Steps 1-9 for details.

Step PTO-2:

Find a position for the post pivot brackets where the operator has clearance in both the
open and closed positions and clamp operator into position (see examples of clearance on
page 15; step 10). Mark the point on the post pivot bracket where the 1/2" holes will need
to be drilled. Drill the holes then secure the post pivot bracket using the 1/2" bolt, spacer,
washer and lock nut.
