B. INSTALLATION WITH CONCRETE
Assemble the base plate bracket as shown in fig 1.
Fig 1
Run Conduit and power cables, accessories and sensor cables through the slot in the base
plate before pouring concrete. Make sure you have enough length on the cable to wire into
the control card.
While pouring the concrete, make sure that the base plate is level horizontally and straight
with respect to the gate.
After pouring concrete, make sure that the threaded part of the anchor TruBolts are clean.
Do not work on it until the concrete is hard.

E. GEAR RACK INSTALLATION
1. Move the Gate leaf to fully closed position.
2. Place the first piece of the rack over the pinion leaving about 1.5mm gap and mark the
drilling point on the gate, drill a pilot hole and screw the rack using the self-tapping screw
with the reinforcing plate.
3. Move the gate manually, making sure that the rack is resting on the pinion and fix all
other screws.
4. Bring the next rack and join it to the previous one by slotting it into inter-connecting slots.
5. Repeat this process until the gate is fully covered from fully open to fully close positions.
F. CHECK GEAR RACK INSTALLATION
Make sure that the rack is constantly in full contact with the pinion for the full open and
close travel cycle.
Manually check if the gate reaches the mechanical stop limits and make sure there is no
friction during gate travel.
Do not use grease or other lubricants between rack and pinion

G. LIMIT SWITCH ADJUSTMENT
Install the limit switch magnets as shown in fig 6.
The limit switch magnets should be initially installed at least 50mm before the end of travel
on both sides. Final adjustment should be done after successful travel learning with the
control card.
Adjustments of the limit switch should be done after all other components are installed
securely.

H. Manual Release
The operator has an unlocking mechanism. Once it’s unlocked, the gate can be operated manually
in both directions. The unlocking key is needed to unlock the motor. Please keep the key in a safe
place for later use. The manual release lever is located towards the bottom of the operator. (See
pictures below). Use the key to unlock the manual release lever. Once unlocked pull the lever so
that it’s perpendicular to the motor. The gate can now be used manually.
I. ELECTRICAL CONNECTION
After successful motor installation, refer to the user manual of the control card
for automatic operation setup.
J. SOLAR CHARGE MONITORING APP*
Once the gate is fully commissioned and operational, the solar charging monitoring app can be
downloaded from the app store. This app will show the user the battery status in real time,
charging current, battery voltage and the output of the solar panel. To download the app, go to
the app store and search for VictronConnect.
*Do not change any setting of the solar controller. It has already been optimised for the Li-
ion battery. Any changes will void the warranty and can cause damage to the battery and
the solar changer.
