Use tapped holes and hex 
bolts to hold linkage arms 
in place (2x) while setting 
the limit switches.

Mount bracket approximately 25 inches 

(63cm) from base of operator.

Set screw 

(used to prevent locking 

of the elbow joint)

CAUTION

Use the supplied set screw to 

prevent the arm from locking. 

The intent of the offset is that, upon gate strike, 

the elbow will bend and the taper clamp will slip, 

minimizing damage to the gearbox and operator.
