e Estate Swing is only to be used for vehicular swing gates in a Class I setting.
e Estate Swing automated system was designed and built for controlling vehicle access.
Do not use for any other purpose.
e external automation with an electro-mechanical non-reversing linear arm automates
residential swing-leaf gates with leaves of up to 12’ in length. It consists of an irreversible
electro-mechanical operator with built in opening and closing limits and utilizes a worm
screw system. e irreversible system ensures the gate is mechanical locked when the
motor is not operating. A lock still needs to be installed if security or high winds are a
concern. A manual release makes it possible to move the gate in the event of a power-cut
or fault.

To ensure safety and an efficiently operating automated system, make sure the following conditions are
observed.
t e gate and post must be suitable for being automated. Check that the structure is sufficiently strong and
rigid, and its dimensions and weights conform to those indicated on page 1.
t Make sure the gates move smoothly without any irregular friction during entire travel.
tMake sure the hinges are in good condition. Ball bearing hinges are ideal for gates weighing over 200 lbs. or
over 10’ in length.
tMake sure the gate is plumb and level.
te fence post must be secured in the ground with concrete. is will prevent alteration of alignments and
leveling during installation and during cycles.
Notes: 1) When laying electrical cables, use appropriate rigid and/or flexible tube.
2) Do not run any wires in the same conduit as 110 AC power that may be in the area.
is will cause danger of electrocution.

Manual Operation & Installation

E-SC 400/ 402 Classic Series Instruction Manual
Manual Operation
2.1
Manual operation mode will disengage the gears from the
motor and allow the gates to be open and closed manually. It
is also useful for emergency situations where as using the
motor is not an option for operation the gates.
Fit the supplied release key in the hole and turn it clockwise
until the key stops and does not spring back to its original
position.
Restoring Standard Operation
To avoid an involuntary pulse activating the gates during the maneuver, switch off
all power before re-locking the operator.
Fit the supplied release key in the hole and turn it until the key springs back to its original
position.

e gate opener is designed to be on the inside of the property and pull the gate in
towards the property.
A = distance from center of hinge to rear of column.
B = distance from hinge to perpendicular intersection of the center of the motor.
C = distance from hinge to center of gate mount bracket.
e A measurement shown above shows the ranged measurements for the setback.
e measurments for B and C, however, are constant.

Installation of Operator
2.3
e operator base plate and articulated arm are designed either for right-handed or left-handed
installation. ere is no pre-determined designation.
3) Use the template to find the correct setback for your
motor. e measurement goes from the hinge of the gate to
the drive shaft of the motor.
4) Check to make sure you have clearance for your motor
from the face of the column. You must have at minimum of
7 inches from the face of the column to the drive shaft of the
motor.
1) On a piece of cardboard, create a template. From a corner
of the cardboard, measure your Ameasurement. Cut at that
point and back to the corner.

2) On the same piece of cardboard, 90 degrees from the first
measurement, mark and cut your Bmeasurement.

5) Find your horizontal position on the column for your
motor bracket. e motor bracket should be centered at the
end of the B measurement. Using a carpenters pencil, make a
vertical mark on the two sides of the bracket.
7) Place the bracket in the final position that is matched up
horizontally and vertically to the above two steps. If purchas-
ing your own anchor bolt, drill the holes using a 1/2 inch
masonry bit. If using the provided anchor bolts, drill the
holes using a 15 mm masonry bit.
6) Find your vertical position of the column for your motor
bracket. Identify the horizontal bar on the gate you are going
to attach the motor arm to. e top of the horizontal bar on
the gate being used for mounting should be level with the
bottom of the motor bracket.
TIP: Take a level and rest one end of the level on the top of
the lip of the bottom of the bracket. Place the other end of
the level resting on the top of the gate’s horizontal bracket.
8) Using the provided long bolts, attach the rear of the motor
to the bracket.

9) Using the Cmeasurement from the hinges, find the
correct location for your gate bracket. Mark the bracket posi-
tion and drill 5/16” holes in the horizontal bar on the gate.
Bolt the bracket to the gate.
11) Place a washer on top of the bracket and the end of the
curved motor arm on top of the washer.
Place a second washer on top of the motor arm and then
secure the setup in place using a lock nut. e lock nut
should be tightened to hold the bolt in the bracket but not so
tight it restricts pivoting.
10) Insert the 1/4” x 2” carriage bolt up from the bottom of
the bracket, so the square head of the carriage bolt fits into
one of the holes of bracket.
TIP: Most use of the center hole, which is the intended hole
of usage. However there are multiple holes for adjustment
after the brackets are mounted.
12) Insert the 1/4” x 11/2” carriage bolt through the straight
motor arm so the square head fits into the square hole of the
arm.

13) Flip the bracket so the bolt is facing up. Place a washer
between the two arms and join them together.
14) Place another washer on top of the curved bracket that is
being joined to the straight bracket. Tighten together using a
lock nut so that bolt stays in the square hole, however, it is
still loose enough to pivot.
15) Attach the motor arms to the bottom of the motor using
the provided bolt.
