Q36-98 Installation
Step 1 - Install Release Bracket
Start by pushing trip handle to release front gate.
Using the /" wrench, remove trip handle (See Fig 1). Save removed
bolt & nut. Replace with Top Release Bracket, making sure top link
is tilted back. Afx through rear-most hole with saved bolt nut.
Using the /" socket and /"
box-end wrench, attach Top
Release Bracket and Bottom
Release Bracket together with
the Release Bracket Bolts and Nuts. Be Sure to include the Spacers
between the Top and Bottom Brackets (See Fig 2). Tighten all
connections securely.
Step 2 - Install Spring/Spring Attachment
Locate and install the Spring Release Bracket, just below and forward of, the Release Brackets previously
installed (See Fig 3). Note that the spring attachment link faces toward the rear of the chute. Afx with
Bolt & Nut and tighten securely. Attach spring from Bottom Release Bracket (See Fig 4).
Check Bracket/Spring for free operation.
Step 3 - Install Return Handle Brackets
Using the /" socket & Breaker Bar, remove the bolts holding the manual
gate-closing handles and discard the bolts & nuts used to attach them.
Attach the Return Handle Brackets over the gate-closing handles. The oblong
plate will locate on top of the gate-closing handle, and, ears of bracket
arms will face inward (See Fig 5). Use the provided 2" Handle Bolts & Nuts
and snug enough to allow movement.
NOTE: DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN as
this will prevent the forward/backward
movement of the handles.
Attach other end of Return Handle to
the slot in the Release Bracket installed
earlier (See Fig 6). Using the /"
socket & Breaker Bar, SNUG bolt & nut enough to allow movement, but
DO NOT OVER-TIGHTEN.

Step 4 - Install Control Box
Find and remove 4 screws from the Cover of the
Q36-98
Control Box (See Fig 7).
Place Control Box on top rail of chute just behind Release Bracket.
Slide Control Box forward so that the tongue
of the Release Bracket slides into slot and
latches inside the Control Box
(See Fig 8).
Lift Cover off Control Box and lay back onto
chute top rail. Attach Control Box to top rail with
Box Brackets, bolts & nuts (See Fig 9).
Step 4a - Connect Power Supply
IMPORTANT: To maintain the charge of the storage battery during shipment,
a protective plastic cap covers the positive lead
(See Fig 10).
Remove this protective cap and attach the duplexed
wires to the positive lead on the battery (See Fig 11).
NOTE: Q36-98 Control Box will not operate if these wires
are not connected to the storage battery.
Step 4b - Measure Location
Use Tape Measure to locate the Control Box approximately 16½" to 17½" from back of chute to back of
Control Box (See Fig 12a, Fig 12b, Fig 12c). Tighten all 4 bolts and nuts securely.
Replace Cover, replace and tighten screws.
Step 5 - Installation Complete
Close Front Gate. Turn on Power Switch (See Fig 13). Front Gate will release,
which indicates the
Q36-98
is active and functioning
Chute Is now ready to operate with the Q36-98 Solar Powered
Control Box. Operation is easily handled with one button on the
Remote (See Fig 14). Remote is programmed from the factory,
but if an additional remote is desired, it will need
to be programmed to your Control Box (See Step 6).

screws holding the cover (See Fig 16). Turn power
on, Green LED power light will illuminate. Press
and hold the function button until Red LED light
illuminates (See Fig 17).
2. While red LED light is on, press the button on the
