REAR INSTALLATION
DO NOT run the operator until instructed.
NOTE: This installation will require two extra idler pulleys.
Move the back pulley to the bottom hole in the operator.
Close the gate and align the bottom bracket so the chain will be level with the
bottom idler pulley and parallel to the ground. Weld the bottom bracket in this
position.
Align the top bracket so the chain will be level with the top idler pulley and
parallel to the ground. Weld the upper bracket in this position.
Route the chain through the operator.
NOTE: Make sure the gate is closed BEFORE connecting the chain.
Connect the chain to the brackets using the eye bolt hardware. Chain should not
be too tight or have excessive slack.
NOTE: The chain should have no more than 1 inch of sag for every 10 feet of
chain length.
STANDARD INSTALLATION
DO NOT run the operator until instructed.
Open the gate and line up the front bracket so the chain will be level with the
idler pulley and parallel to the ground. Weld the front bracket in this position.
Close the gate and line up the rear bracket so the chain will be level with the
idler pulley and parallel to the ground. Weld the rear bracket in this position.
Route the chain through the operator.
NOTE: Make sure the gate is closed BEFORE connecting the chain.
Connect the chain to the brackets using the eye bolt hardware. Chain should
not be too tight or have excessive slack.
NOTE: The chain should have no more than 1 inch of sag for every 10 feet of
chain length.

EARTH GROUND ROD
Proper grounding gives an electrical charge, such as from an electrical static
discharge or a near lightning strike, a path from which to dissipate its energy safely
into the earth. Without this path, the intense energy generated by lightning could be
directed towards the gate operator. Although nothing can absorb the tremendous
power of a direct lightning strike, proper grounding can protect the gate operator in
most cases.
Use the proper earth ground rod for your local area. The ground wire must be a
single, whole piece of wire. Never splice two wires for the ground wire. If you should
cut the ground wire too short, break it, or destroy its integrity, replace it with a single
wire length. NOTE: If the operator is not grounded properly the range of the remote
controls will be reduced.
Install the earth ground rod within 3 feet of the operator.
Attach the ground wire to the ground terminal on the control board.
