Determining the Mounting Position
of the Post Bracket Assembly and the Gate Bracket
Step 5
With the gate in the open position (80º to 110º from its closed position), adjust the post bracket assembly and gate bracket
until the opener is level. While holding the opener level, use C-clamps to temporarily keep the post bracket assembly and
gate bracket in their respective positions on the fence post and gate.
Step 3
Insert the 3 / 8 " x 2" bolt through
the center hole of the post
brackets and post pivot bracket as
shown. Fasten a
3 / 8 " washer and
nut on the end of the bolt. DO
NOT overtighten the nut because
the post pivot bracket will have to
be adjusted later.
Step 4
Attach post bracket assembly and gate bracket to the opener with the clevis pins and washers. Secure the clevis pins with
hairpin clips.

NOTE: The following steps are
intended for pull-to-open gate
installations. If you are mounting
your opener on a push-to-open gate
(e.g., a gate on a sloped driveway)
you will need to purchase a Push To
Open bracket (see Accessory
catalog). Also, see Push-to-Open
Installation beginning on page 29.
