4. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
THE PY300DC WILL HANDLE GATE WEIGHTING UP TO 300KG AND UP TO
8M IF THE PROPER INSTALLATION PROCEDURES HAVE BEEN FOLLOWED.
THE PY300DC GATE OPERATOR OPERATES BY FORCING A DRIVE RACK BY A
DRIVE GEAR. THE ENTIRE CONFIGURATION IS SHOWN IN THE DIAGRAM
BELOW. THE GATE OPERATOR MUST BE INSTALLED ON THE INSIDE OF THE
GATE.
GATE PREPARATION
BE SURE THE GATE IS PROPERLY INSTALLED AND SLIDES SMOOTHLY BEFORE
INSTALLING THE PY300DC SLIDING GATE OPERATOR. THE GATE MUST BE
PLUMB, LEVEL AND MOVE FREELY.
CONDUIT
IN ORDER TO PROTECT THE WIRES, USE PVC CONDUIT FOR LOW VOLTAGE
POWER CABLE AND CONTROL WIRES. CONDUIT MUST BE PRESET INTO THE
CONCRETE WHEN IT IS POURED. WIRES WITHIN THE CONDUIT SHALL BE
LOCATED OR PROTECTED SO THAT NO DAMAGE CAN RESULT FROM
CONTACT WITH ANY ROUGH OR SHARP PART.
CONCRETE PAD
THE BASE UNIT OF THE GATE OPERATOR REQUIRES A CONCRETE PAD IN
ORDER TO MAINTAIN PROPER STABILITY. THE CONCRETE PAD SHOULD BE
APPROXIMATELY 400MMX250MMX200MM DEEP IN ORDER TO PROVIDE FOR
ADEQUATE WEIGHT AND STRUCTURE TO INSURE PROPER STABLE
INSTALLATION.
ANCHORS (FIG 2)
YOU CAN USE ANCHOR BOLTS, ANCHORS, WASHERS AND NUTS. THESE
ANCHORS MUST BE SET INTO THE CONCRETE WHEN IT IS POURED OR YOU
CAN USE WEDGE ANCHORS TO FASTEN THE OPERATOR.

OPERATOR BASE
AFTER THE CONCRETE HAS HARDENED, MOUNT THE GATE OPERATOR BASE TO
THE CONCRETE PAD. VERIFY THAT THE BASE IS PROPERLY LEVELED. USING
BOLTS AND WASHERS, MOUNT THE GATE OPERATOR TO THE BASE AND
INSERT THE COVER. CHECK THE OPERATOR AND MAKE SURE IT IS LINED UP
WITH THE GATE.
INSTALLATION OF RACK
•FIX THE THREE NUTS (IN THE SAME PACKAGE WITH RACK) ON THE RACK
ELEMENT
