Inward swinging gate:
You need to determine whether to attach the rear
mounting bracket directly to the post (or wall) or to
notch the post and install a recessed liner. Large pillars
require a recessed liner to house the rear mounting
bracket and part of the operator so that the pillar will
not interfere with the swing of the gate when it is fully
opened.
To determine whether you need a recessed liner,
measure the distances B and D (shown in Fig. 9) on your
gate. If your measure of B or D is greater than the
dimensions shown for your operator in Figure 9, notch
the post and construct a recessed liner for the post
mounting bracket (see Figure 7). The recessed liner
should be constructed of 3/16 or 1/4 in. steel with a
minimum interior height of 8in. (20.32 cm) so as to
allow you to meet the required dimensions shown in
Figure 9. Make sure the recessed liner is securely
embedded in the post (or wall).
There are two parts to the rear mounting bracket. The
horizontal bracket attaches to the operator, and the
drilled plate that can be bolted to the gate post. Weld
the two parts together and bolt the assembly to the gate
post or column. Note, though, that use of the vertical
rear mounting plate is optional.
Once you have positioned the rear mounting bracket,
attach the bracket to the post (or wall or recessed liner),
making sure the dimensions on your gate system match
those shown in Figure 9.
Outward swinging gate:
If you are installing the 415 L LS Operator to swing the
gate outward, construct a steel elbow of sufficient size
to attach to the gate pillar and rear mounting bracket
(see Figure 10 for elbow dimensions).

Disengage the operator’s manual release (see figure 2).
You should be able to lengthen or shorten the cylinder
by pulling or pushing the cylinder. Lengthen or shorten
the operator to the required distance for your gate
installation:
Inward swinging: Lengthen the piston rod until
the appropriate limit led (FCC or FCA) goes
out on the control panel.
Outward swinging: Shorten the piston rod until
the appropriate limit led (FCC or FCA) goes
out on the control panel.
With the gate in the fully closed position, temporarily
clamp the front mounting bracket (previously attached
to the operator) to the gate leaf and insure that the
cylinder is level.
Manually open the gate to ensure full swing of the
operator.
Remove the operator from the front mounting bracket
for welding.
With the operator detached from the front mounting
bracket, permanently attach (weld or bolt) the front
mounting bracket to the gate leaf (see Figure 8).
Once the front mounting bracket is welded or bolted in
place, you can reattach the operator to the bracket.
