10 Control Box and Electrical Components Single Gate Operator P arts List OTHER MATERIALS YOU MAY NEED BEFORE YOU START THE INSTALLATION: Depending on the type of gate and fence post, you may need some additional materials/hardware. Some of these items can be found in the GTO/PRO Accessory Catalog . • All gates will need a stop post in the open p[...]

11 Preparing the Gate Step 1: The gate must be in proper working order, plumb, level and swinging freely on its hinges. Do not use wheels on gate. The gate must move smoothly and evenly throughout its swing, without binding or dragging on the ground . Gates over 250 lb. should have ball bearing hinges with grease fittings. Step 2: The fence post mu[...]

12 Installing The Post Bracket Assembly The position of the post bracket determines the leverage of the operator and the clearance between the operator and the gate. The post bracket is designed to work on a flat fence post. Fence posts must be at least 6” square in order to mount the post bracket. NOTE: The best method of attaching the post brac[...]

13 Step 6: Place the rounded ends of post pivot brackets inside the post bracket. Align the holes in the post pivot brackets with holes in the post bracket (see illustration). Insert 1 / 2 " x 3 3 / 4 " hex head bolt through post pivot brackets and post bracket; tighten the nut. Step 5: Drill holes in fence post as marked using a 1 / 2 &q[...]

14 IMPORTANT: Thin walled tube and panel gates MUST be reinforced as shown to prevent damage to gate and operator. Step 8: Position rear mount between post pivot brackets. Place 1 / 2 " washers between rear mount and post pivot brackets. Align 1 / 2 " hole in rear mount and washers with holes in post pivot brackets. Attach the rear mount [...]

15 Step 10: Open the gate to the desired position (at least 10º and no greater than 110º). Position the operator so that the gate bracket just rests against the gate. Check the clearance between the operator and the gate. The operator should only make contact with the gate at the gate bracket. However, there should not be too much clearance betwe[...]

16 Step 14: Remove the hairpin clip and clevis pin from the gate bracket and move the gate so that you can install the open position stop post. Secure stop post in the ground (and seat in concrete). Installing the Open and Closed Position Stops Step 13: With the gate still in the open position, measure approxi- mately 3/4 of the distance to the end[...]

17 Step 15: Close the gate. Position the closed position stop plate on the end of the gate frame at mid-height. Extend the stop plate to make contact with the fence post at that position. Install the closed position stop plate using appropriate hardware for the type of gate (U-bolts for tube or chain link gate, wood or lag screws for wood gates, et[...]

18 Step 17 Make sure the control box power switch is in the OFF position. Unscrew and remove the control box cover and slide the battery into position with its terminals to the left ( see illustration ). Push battery down until it fits snugly in control box. Connect the BLACK battery wire to the NEGATIVE ( – ) battery terminal. Connect the RED ba[...]

19 • The transformer is intended for indoor use. If the transformer can only be plugged into an outside electrical outlet, a weatherproof housing or cover (available at electrical supply stores) must be used. • Solar power options are available; see Solar Chart on next page. • All low voltage wire used for powering the GTO/PRO gate operators [...]

20 Step 23: Feed the low voltage wires upward through the strain relief on the control box. Pull 6" to 8" of wire into the control box and tighten the screw on the side of the strain relief to secure wires. Step 22: Install low voltage wire ( see Accessory Catalog) to connect the control box to the transformer. This wire should be buried [...]

21 Step 25: Strip 1 / 2 " off the ends of the low voltage wire and attach ends to the transformer terminals; red lead to RED, black lead to BLK . A dab of household petroleum jelly on each terminal will help prevent corrosion. We recommend crimping a spade-tongue terminal ( not provided ) to the end of each wire before attaching it to the tran[...]

22 CONTROL BOARD SET TINGS The four DIP switches on the control board match the operator with the type of gate on which it is installed. For example, gates may pull-to-open or push-to-open. Prior to packaging, the GT O/PRO 2000 series control board was configured for single swing gates that pull-to-open (open into the prop- erty). If your gate type[...]

23 P otentiometers The three (3) potentiometers on the control board operate like a volume control on a radio. They control the auto close timer , inertia, and obstruction sensitivity of the operator . Use a small slotted screwdriver to turn the arrow in the center of the potentiometer . Clockwise rotation increases the setting ( MAX ). Countercloc[...]

24 2. Set the transmitter DIP Switches There are nine (9) transmitter DIP switches; each of which can be placed in three different positions ( + , 0 , – ). DO NOT set all the switches in the same position, such as all +, all 0 , or all – . Once the DIP switches have been set to a personal code, replace and close the access cover. WARNING: No ot[...]

25 Mounting the Receiver Use the transmitter to check the range of the receiver before permanently mounting it. Consider the following when mounting the receiver: • Receiver cable length is 10 feet (receivers with a longer cable are available as special order items; call the GTO Sales Department ). NEVER splice receiver cable! • Run the cable t[...]

26 Step 29: Remove the rear cover of the operator to gain access to the limit switches and the limit switch cams. Setting the Closed P osition Limit Switch Step 30: F or P ull-to-Open Installations: The open position of the gate was determined when you installed the GTO/PRO 2000 on the open gate (page 15, Step 12). The outer switch cam is used to a[...]

27 Step 31: Secure all bolts, nuts, and washers on the post bracket and gate bracket assemblies. Cut off the ends of the bolts extending beyond the tightened nuts. Step 32: Install warning signs on both sides of the gate ( see page 7 ) using nylon cable ties ( provided ) or screws.[...]

28 Connecting Additional Safety Devices The GTO/PRO 2000 series operators are equipped with built-in obstruction sensitivity . These operators are designed to stop and reverse the gate for 2 seconds when it comes in contact with an obstruction. However , obstruction sensitivity , even when properly adjusted, may not be sensitive enough to prevent b[...]
