Owner's Manual

LEFT- OR RIGHT-HAND INSTALLATIONS
The LPX1000 operator can be configured for left- or right-hand gate
installations. See Figure 16. On a normal drive installation, when
standing inside the gate and facing outwards, if the operator is on the
right side of the gate, it's a right-hand installation. If the operator is on
the left side of the gate, it's a left-hand installation.
The operator is shipped from the factory configured for right-hand
installations. If it is installed in a left-hand installation, make sure the
main power switch is off and locate the 8-pin, motor wire connector in
the upper center of the controller board. See Figure 17.
Pinch the locking tabs on the two sides of the connector and remove it
from the connector labeled, "RIGHT-HAND". Then plug it into the
connector labeled, "LEFT-HAND".
Locate the 3 position limit switch wire harness connector midway down
on the right side of the controller board. Switch it to the position
labeled, "LEFT-HAND". The operator is now configured for a left-
hand installation.
