1.5.4 Center – Post Mount
1. Install an endless idler assembly (p/n
2600-818) at each end of the gate
opening (figure 21). Note that the gate
travels between the fence and the chain
in this type of installation. IMPORTANT!!
Be sure that the idler post/mount
assembly is secure.
2. Secure the chain brackets to the gate as
shown in figure 19. The chain brackets
should be attached to the gate frame so
that they are approximately one (1) inch
apart.
Figure 19
3. Route the chain through the gate
operator: under the chain guide idlers
and over the drive sprocket (Figure 21),
and then around the two idler
assemblies.
4. Attach the chain to the chain bolts using
the master links supplied, and then
attach the chain bolts to the chain
brackets using the hardware supplied
(figure 19). Make any adjustments to the
chain length at this time.
5. Adjust the chain bolts to tighten the
chain. The chain should sag no more
than one (1) inch per 10 feet of travel. Do
not over tighten the chain.
IMPORTANT!! Be sure that the chain
is parallel to the gate (figure 20).
Installing the chain in any other
manner will cause excessive noise,
chain idler wear and chain stretching.

6. Manually operate the gate to be sure that
the chain is not binding and that the gate
operates easily.
