SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
During operation, the gate should not under any circumstances obstruct public path ways and roads (public area). When using tools
and small parts to install or carry out repair work on a gate, exercise caution and do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing.
To avoid serious personal injury due to entrapments, remove any locking device fitted to the gate in order to prevent damage to the
gate.
Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local building and electrical installation regulations. Power cables must only be
connected to a properly earthed supply.
Disconnect electric power to the system before installation, maintenance, repairs or removing covers. A dual pole isolating switch
must be provided to the mains power supply (permanently-wired installation) to guarantee all-pole disconnection (isolating switch or by
a separate fuse). The repairs and electrical installations may be performed only by an authorized electrician. Emergency Stop Button
must be installed for emergency case based on the risk assessment.
Any possible entrapment caused by the moving gate leaf(s) between gate & walls must be eliminated by respecting the given safety
distances in accordance with the AS/NZS 60335.1 in conjunction with AS/NZS 60335.2.103 and/or with safety devices (e.g. safe
edge).
Testing of the safety function of the drive system is recommended to be carried out at least once a month. Refer also to
manufacturers instruction of the gate system components.
After the installation a final test of the full function of the system and the safety devices must be made.
After installation and commissioning, all users must be instructed in the function and operation of the swing gate opener.
It is important to make sure that the gate always runs smoothly. Gates which stick or jam must be repaired immediately. Employ a
qualified technician to repair the gate, never attempt to repair it yourself. This device is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with restricted physical, sensory or mental abilities or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised by a
person responsible for their safety or have received instruction in how to use the device. If necessary, control equipment MUST be
mounted within sight of the gate and out of reach of children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
device. Do not allow children to operate push button(s) or remote(s). Misuse of the gate opener system can result in serious injury.

INTRODUCTION
Before installing the gate opener, ensure that the gate is opening smoothly. Determine the dimensions based on
the opening angle provided in Table 1 (below) to confirm the position where the post bracket will be mounted.
Ensure that all the required cables (power cable, accessory cables etc) are prepared and laid correctly.
NOTE: All crushing points must be secured by an entrapment protection according to AS/NZS 60335.1 in conjunction with
AS/NZS 60335.2.103.
PLANNING

Wind Load Rating for Swing Gate Operators
We do not have wind load ratings on our gate openers, as Chamberlain is not responsible for how gate installers design their gates.
Recommendations
• Do not use a solid leaf/panel gate in windy areas.
• Use a light weight picketed slide or swing gate to minimize the wind force.
• Try using a maglock or e-lock to keep the gate securely shut.
• It may be needed to hold the gate(s) open or close, in windy applications.
• When selecting an opener, be sure to select the correct opener for the size of gate.
• You may need to adjust the gate force margins in high wind applications.
Power Wiring
1. The 240V AC opener is supplied with a mains power plug pre-assembled ready for installation.This may require mains power
supply to be provided close to the opener by a licensed electrician.
2. The 24V AC opener will require a low-voltage power supply from the transformer box (MGTR3-120VA) to the gate opener.
3. The recommended cable sizes for the connection between the transformer box and the Low Voltage (LV) openers:
• Flexible 3 core cable:
• Less than 20m, minimum 1.5mm²
• 20m to 50m, minimum 2.5mm²
• 50m to 100m, minimum 4mm²
4. It is recommended that the Low Voltage (LV) power cable is run inside conduit to the opener as per local installation requirements.
Suitable cable glands must be used that provide sufficient cable restraint against a minimum of 30 N pull force.
Earthing Recommendations
Proper earthing of the opener is recommended to improve the radio range of transmitters and wireless accessories.
• The 240V AC unit is earthed using the standard AC power plug provided
• For the Low Voltage unit earthing can be achieved by running an earth wire back to the transformer box
• Alternatively connect the earth wire supplied with the LV unit to a suitable earth point on the operator base plate
• The use of an extension antenna kit SWG-ANT-EV may also be used to improve the radio range.
Additional Accessories
The vehicle loops allow the gate to stay open when vehicles are obstructing the gate path. Suggested for vehicles 4.2m or longer.
Vehicle loops are not required but are recommended. Before installing any accessories be sure to complete a site check to determine
the best device(s) the site needs.

DETERMINE THE POSITION OF THE POST BRACKET
7
1. Determine the A and B dimension in base on the opening angle provided in Table 1 to confirm the position where the post bracket
will be mounted.
2. The max dimension for C, should be the B dimension minus the 60mm (refer to the tables below).
3. For optimal mechanical advantage A and B dimension shall be equal or close. Therefore limit the difference between A and B
within 40mm.
NOTE: Smaller A and B dimensions determine higher peripheral speed of the leaf. Higher differences between cause greater speed and
force variations during the gate opening and closing movement. It is always good practice use all available travel of the operator.

11
INSTALLATION
1. Using the fixed post bracket as a reference, mark and drill the holes for the post bracket.
2. Attach the post bracket to the post using appropriate fixings. Masonry fixings are supplied, if required. The correct fastening
material must be used based on existing installation (building / material substance). Please consult the gate manufacturer.
3. The slots on the post bracket allow for alignment. When the post bracket is level (see figure 1), tighten the nuts.
4. Attach the live post bracket to the fixed post bracket as per figure 2.

THE PROTECTOR SYSTEM™ (IR BEAMS) (OPTIONAL)
NOTE: Merlin strongly recommends that The Protector System™ (IR Beams) be installed on all gate openers.
Compatible Protector System™ (IR Beams) are 772ANZ and GPS15 Monitored Safety Beams.
The Protector System™ (IR Beams) can be configured to function differently when connected to IR1, IR2 or IR3
inputs.
1. Connect the Protector System™ (IR Beams) to IR1/GND or IR2/GND and or IR3/GND.
2. The IR Beams can be configured to monitor in the open or close direction or both (see section 22 IR Behaviour).
3. The IR Beams will automatically learn to the opener after they have been connected and are default to monitor the close direction.
4. If you need to remove the IRs, you will need to unlearn them from the opener. This is done by switching off the mains power off
and on again twice.
