USING AN EXISTING PAD
In many applications, SwingSmart may be a
replacement operator for an existing gate system.
Make sure the pad is level and inspect the pad for:
z
Compliance with local building codes.
z
Appropriate distance from the gate. Refer to
.
z
Appropriate dimensions for SwingSmart
installation.
z
Durability.
To use an existing pad, take the following steps:
1.
Remove any existing equipment from the pad.
2.
Measure the pad to ensure it is sized properly
for SwingSmart.
3.
Mark the center shaft location.
4.
Follow the steps in Mounting the Operator.
CAUTION
Consider positioning the operator so existing
conduit exits through the cutout in the
SwingSmart base plate. Cutting small holes
in the base plate for pre-existing conduit is
permissible, but not recommended because
it can impair the strength of the chassis and
void the Limited Warranty.
UNPACKING THE OPERATOR
