Important Safety Warnings
Please read these important safety warnings before attempting to install
or use this product.
Do not operate the gate motor unless the gates are in full view and free
from objects such as cars and other obstructions.
Children must be supervised near the gates at all times, especially
when the gate motor is in use.
Ensure that the obstruction sensing function of the gate motor is
operational and adjusted as necessary.
Keep hands and any loose clothing well clear of the gate(s) and gate
motor at all times.
Before attempting to service the gate motor or removing the cover, turn
off and / or disconnect the power to the gate motor. If you are unable to
do this, then we strongly recommend you call an electrician. Care
should be taken as there are moving components inside the gate
motor that may cause damage or personal injury.
Keep any gate controllers out of reach of children. Any wired or wireless
controllers must be installed away from any moving parts, and it must
be at a minimum height of 1.5m from the ground.
Regularly check that all safety features and safety accessories are fully
functioning.
Warning:
Failure to comply with these safety warnings or installation instructions
may result in serious personal injury and/or property damage.

Installation Checklist
Read all instructions and data sheets before installing the gate motor kit. Failure to follow the instructions
could void warranty.
Ensure the gate is in good condition, opens and closes freely for its full length of travel and it does not hit
or bind on the driveway or garden beds. Remove any wheels that are fitted to the gate.
Ensure the gate is correctly and securely mounted to the post which is firm in the ground.
Generally, the gate motor requires about 400mm to 500mmside clearance from the gate hinge to allow
the arms to rotate around during the opening of the gate.
We recommend 1.5mm twin active lighting cable for power supply wiring and 1mm figure 8 wire for wiring
push buttons and other auxiliary items.
Place the gate motors on a suitable work bench. Unpack the motors and remove the metal motor cover.
Visually inspect the motor to ensure nothing has moved during transit. Refer to the “DC 2 Circuit Board”
data sheet included with this manual and familiarise yourself with the layout and location of the items and
wiring terminals.

INSTALLATION AND SET UP
INSTRUCTIONS

© 2012 G Force Automac Gates All Rights Reserved
We recommend the gate motor settings and direction of rotation be set up and tested prior to
installation. Place the gate motors on a suitable work bench.
Care should be taken as there are moving components inside the gate
motor that may cause damage or personal injury.
Determine which side of the gates to mount the MASTER motor to (the gate motor with the
circuit board and battery). Typically, the master motor is located on the side of incoming power.
Some double gates require a time delay in opening / closing to prevent the two gates clashing.
Determine which gate will need to open first & therefore close last. Typically, one or other of the
gates may be fitted with a ‘lip’ or ‘tab’ to help align the gates when closed. The lip or tab may be
fitted to the leading edge of the first-closing gate or the trailing edge of the last-closing gate.
The motor (master motor or slave motor) of the first opening gate / last closing gate must be
connected to Motor M1 terminal. (See above)

Care should be taken as there are moving components inside the gate mo-
tor that may cause damage or personal injury.
Activate the gate motor using one of the handset remote. When the gate motors are first activated only
one motor may operate to synchronise both motors. If this happens, wait for the gate motor to complete
its rotation and stops.
Check the rotation of the motor shafts are turning in the correct directions for opening the gate and the
GREEN LED light is on OR the correct directions for closing the gate and the RED LED light is on. The
motors should rotate in opposite directions.
If one of the motors is going in the wrong direction, disconnect all power. Refer to the “DC2 Circuit Board”
data sheet included with this manual and locate the ‘Motor M1’ and Motor M2 terminals on the circuit
board. Identify which motor is going in the wrong direction and the motor terminals the motor is connected
to (Motor M1 Terminals OR motor M2 Terminals). Swap the red and black motor wires (or white wire as
per photo below) connected to Motor terminals on the circuit board. The red wire should be connected to
the terminal that had the black wire (or white wire as per photo below) connected to it and the black wire
(or white wire as per photo below) should be connected to the terminal that had the red wire connected to
it. This will reverse the direction of the motor.
Press the handset again to stop the motors and press the handset again to reverse the motor direction.
To stop the motor, press the remote handset or disconnect a battery lead.

DC2 Circuit Board Adjustments
Motor Torque / Obstruction Sensing / Auto Reverse Adjustment
Refer to the “DC2 Circuit Board” data sheet included with this manual and locate the ‘Motor
Force’ trim pot on the circuit board.
This adjustment controls the motor torque and obstruction sensing of both gate motors. The
motors need to have enough torque (force) to fully open and close the gate. However, the more
torque the motor has, the less obstruction sensitivity there is and therefore the gate may hit an
obstruction more forcefully.
Turn the Motor Force trim pot anti-clockwise to increase sensitivity to an obstruction or turn the
Motor Force trim pot clockwise to increase the motor torque (force) of the motor.

Maintenance
1. A regular cleaning to remove dust & dirt. A small soft brush will suffice.
2. Approximately every 6 months remove the motor cover, clean with a soft brush and spray
inside the motor cover. Spray with a surface spray suitable for crawling insects, slugs and
snails. DO NOT SPRAY ANY ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS.
3. Check Battery terminals for corrosion. If present, bushing with a wire brush or dipping the
actual terminals – ‘hot water’ will remove it. A light spray with WD40 will help keep them
clean.
4. Using a small screwdriver, tighten all terminal block screws and ensure any cables are not
frayed at the ends.
5. Ensure Receiver is firmly mounted.
6. Tighten all mounting and attachment bolts.
7. Check screws on Push Button covers are intact and tight.
8. If Photocells (Sensors) are fitted, remove covers and gently brush any cobwebs, etc. away.
Check operation and replace.
Finally, there is usually no substitute for good housekeeping. Ensuring the Motors and the
area around the Motors and Gates are free of rubbish, leaves, infestation of insects and
trimming of plants will help to give a long and trouble free life.
Should you be unsure of any points above, PLEASE contact us.
