Installation Guide

Open and close gate by hand. If binding occurs, adjust the

strike bracket and/or lock mounting bracket until the lock

sits in the strike bracket without any binding. Check for

alignment of strike pin with slot in the lock housing. (Fig. E)

Fully tighten lock nuts on both brackets.

You are now ready to power the lock. Attach the two

wires from the electric lock to those leading to the correct

terminals on your operator board. (For USAutomatic

openers, see Wiring Chart)

When using the electric lock with other brands of gate

openers, it is important to note that the lock is designed

for intermittent activation only. The electric lock only needs

power upon opening. Power applied for extended periods

of time will damage the electric lock.

You are now ready to test the lock for proper operation with the operator.

IMPORTANT! Keep hands clear of any Moving parts

during powered operation or testing!

Re-connect operator arm.

Reconnect power to operator (motor plugs)

Initiate operator to open and visually observe lock to see if Lock Pin retracts

during opening and extends during closing. It is important that power is only

applied during the opening cycle. All power to the electric lock should be

off during the closing cycle or in the rest position. If the lock retracts and

extends properly, install strike pin with clevis clip or padlock.

Gate operator limit switches should be reset at this time if necessary to ensure

proper lock closure. After all adjustments and tests have been completed, tighten

nuts and cut off any excess bolt length.

The electric lock is now ready for full operation.
