pad to support the base plate of opener in order to maintain proper stability.
The installation proceeds are as follows:
1.
Dig a hole for a concrete pad which should be approximately 50 x 30 x 35cm (20
〞
x 12
〞
x 14
〞
). It may
protrude 10 cm (4”) above ground and 25 cm (10”) in depth underground. Increase the pad height if
necessary to protect the system from flooding, heavy snow etc.
2.
Prepare one or more conduits for the electrical cables before pour concrete. Remember that cable
conduits have to pass through the hole in the base plate.
3.
Pour concrete and before it starts to harden, check that it is parallel to the gate leaf and perfectly level.
4.
Mark the position of four expansion anchors according to the position of mounting hole on the base plate
as soon as concrete become harden. Double check your marking, move the base plate and drill the 4 holes
using a 10mm (3/8”) masonry bit. Put the 4 expansion anchors (provided) into the holes and firmly tighten.
5.
Place the opener onto base plate. Check that it is perfectly parallel to the gate leaf, and then screw the
four nuts and washers supplied. It's only temporary installation. Further adjustment will be required when
install the rack or chain.
Manual Operation
The opener should be put in the manual (emergency release) position before fitting the rack, installing the
opener and limit switch. The process is as follows:
1) Insert and turn the key clockwise 45° to slide the lock cover. Now the key slot appears.
2) Insert the T-handle Key
（
provided
）
to the key slot and turn it in counter-clockwise 135° to disengage the
clutch between the gear shaft and power output. Now the opener is in the manual operation.
Fit the Rack
There are two kinds of rack available as per buyer’s option, which are steel reinforced plastic rack and
galvanized steel rack. The galvanized steel rack is usually used for the heavy duty gate.
A. Fit the plastic rack reinforced with steel
1. Start with gate in closed position
2. There are four sections of plastic rack which is one meter length, each section for standard package. (you
can order extra rack from dealer if necessary)
3. Put one end of rack section on the gear of opener as a temporary support.
Make rack level and mark the rack’s mounting holes (four holes) on the gate.
4. Fit the rack by self-threading screws. This kind of plastic rack is quieter and allows height adjustments to
be made even after it has been fixed. Please keep 1.0mm space between the rack and the gear to avoid the
weight of the gate leaf effect on the opener.
