4. Посібник із встановлення

This section provides a visual guide to the installation process. For detailed written instructions, please refer to the included paper manual.

4.1. Mounting Base Installation

The mounting base must be securely installed on a stable concrete pad. Ensure the base is level and positioned correctly relative to your gate. Four foundation bolts need to be pre-buried in the concrete for secure attachment.

4.2. Установка ланцюга

Attach the drive chain to the gate opener's sprocket and secure it to the gate using the provided tie rods. Ensure the chain has appropriate tension. If the included 20ft chain is not sufficient, additional chain can be purchased separately.

4.3. Magnet Installation

Install the magnetic limit switch blocks on the gate. The close limit magnet should be positioned so that the height between the magnet and the chain is approximately 42mm (1.65 inches). The open limit magnet should be positioned so that the height between the magnet and the chain is approximately 104mm (4.09 inches). These magnets define the gate's open and closed positions.

4.4. Power Line Installation

Connect the power line to the control board. The power line needs to be prepared by the customer according to local electrical codes and safety standards.

4.5. Infrared Sensor Connection

Connect the infrared photocell sensors to the control board. The wires for the sensors need to be prepared by the customer. Ensure correct wiring to enable the safety reversal feature.
