• Ensure that the gate opens and closes properly.
• Remove all unnecessary components from the gate (e.g. cables, chains, brackets).
• Render any installations inoperable that will no longer be needed after the operator system has been installed.
• Before commencing cabling works it is very important to disconnect the operator system from the electricity supply.
Ensure that the electricity supply remains disconnected throughout the cabling works.
• Adhere to the local protection regulations.

• Install the operator system with the gate in the CLOSED position.
• Install all the impulse transmitters and control devices (e.g. remote control buttons) within sight of the gate and at a
safe distance from the moving parts of the gate. A minimum installation height of 1.5 m must be observed.
• Ensure that no part of the gate extends across public footways or roads when the installation is complete.
