Specifications
Start and stop post, bracket or door stop. Although the FAAC features soft
start/stop it is still necessary to have a closed stop post for 3 reasons:
1) During the learn mode the gate will need to make contact with a closed
stop point to learn its limits (open as well if doing 1 touch programming,
unnecessary if doing manual programming.)
2) A closed stop point is necessary for proper operation of your opener
cycles and stabilization of the closed position.
3) Having a start and stop point permanently in place may extend the life
of the operator by absorbing some of the momentum of the gate during
open and close cycles.
16 gauge 2 conductor stranded direct burial low voltage wire will be
required to run power to your operator. Length is determined by distance
between transformer power supply and the control box.
2 - 3/8” Carriage Bolts with nuts and washers will be needed to connect
the “L” shaped. Length will be determined by the size of your posts.
A metal support bracket may be needed to achieve the appropriate 5”x 5”
setback. The metal support bracket will be bolted or welded to your post to give a
larger amount of space to mount the provided mounting bracket.
A voltage meter may be necessary to run diagnostic checks.
