If you have any questions about the requirements for proper installation of this gate operator contact technical support at 800-421-1587

Always Check the Gate’s Action

It’s very important before installing the gate operator to make sure the gate slides free and level throughout the entire opening distance. If the gate does not seem to operate properly, it may affect the operator performance or greatly shorten the life of the unit. The gate should also be designed so that airﬂ ow is ample to prevent wind resistance and drag.

Gate Operator Classiﬁ cations

All gate operators can be divided into one of four different classiﬁ cations, depending on their design and usage. Install this gate operator only when the operator is appropriate for the construction and usage class as deﬁ ned below:

• Class I Residential Vehicular Gate Operator

A vehicular gate operator intended for use in a home or for one to four single family dwellings with a common garage or parking area associated with these dwellings.

• Class II Commercial / General Access Vehicular Gate Operator

A vehicular gate operator intended for use in a commercial location or building such as a multi-family housing unit of ﬁ ve or more single family units, hotel, retail store or other building servicing the general public.

• Class III Industrial / Limited Access Vehicular Gate Operator

A vehicular gate operator intended for use in an industrial location or building such as a factory or loading dock area or other location not intended to service the general public.

• Class IV Restricted Access Vehicular Gate Operator

A vehicular gate operator intended for use in a guarded industrial location or building such as an airport security area or other restricted access locations not servicing the general public, in which unauthorized access is prevented via supervision by security personnel.

Regulatory Warnings

Read the following before beginning to install this slide gate operator:

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH TO PERSONS, REVIEW THESE INSTALLATION SAFETY

STEPS BEFORE PROCEEDING

1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

2. Read the yellow “Safety Instructions” brochure enclosed with the

packet of information. If any pages are missing or are unreadable,

or you do not have the safety instructions, please call Linear at

1-800-333-1717 to request additional copies.

3. ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO THE POWER SUPPLY MUST

BE MADE BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN AND MUST OBSERVE ALL

NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.

4. A separate power-disconnect switch should be located near the

operator so that primary power can be turned off when necessary.

5. Install the enclosed warning signs on both sides of the gate. A

minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each

side of the gate where easily visible.

6. Never reach between, through or around the fence to operate the

gate.

7. Never connect a button station within reach of the gate or on the

side of the gate operator.

8. Do not adjust the operator controller’s current sensing feature too

high. It should be adjusted high enough to keep the gate from falsely

triggering the sensing, but no higher than necessary for the gate to

operate. DO NOT DEFEAT THE PURPOSE OF THIS FUNCTION!

9. You must install all required safety equipment.

10. UL325 Compliance requires the use of contact edges or photoelectric

controls on all automatic or remotely-controlled gate operators.

11. The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for

vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access

opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to

promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will

not come into contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path

of travel of the vehicular gate.

Wiring Speciﬁ cations

Refer to the following steps for details on power and accessory wiring for the operator.

WARNING

ALL AC ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO THE POWER SOURCE AND THE OPERATOR MUST BE MADE BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN AND MUST OBSERVE ALL NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.

USE COPPER WIRE ONLY!

AC Power Wiring

1. Find the listing on this page corresponding to the model, voltage and horsepower rating of your operator.

2. The distance shown in the table is measured in feet from the operator to the power source. DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM DISTANCE. These calculations have been based on standard 115 V and 230 V supplies with a 10% drop allowable. If your supply is under the standard rating, the runs listed may be longer than what your application will handle, and you should not run wire too near the maximum distance for the gauge of wire you are using.

3. When large-gauge wire is used, a separate junction box (not supplied) may be needed for the operator power connection.

4. Wire length calculations are based on the National Electrical Code, Article 430 and have been carefully determined based on motor inrush, brake solenoids, and operator requirements.

5. Connect power in accordance with local codes. The green ground wire must be properly connected.

6. Wire insulation must be suitable to the application.

7. Electrical outlets are supplied in all 115 VAC models for convenience with occasional use or low power consumption devices only. If you choose to run dedicated equipment from these devices, it will decrease the distance for maximum length and the charts will no longer be accurate.

DC Control and Accessory Wiring

1. All control devices are now 24 VDC, which can be run up to 2000 feet with 14 AWG wire.

2. Control wiring must be run in a separate conduit from power wiring. Running them together may cause interference and faulty signals in some accessories.

3. A three-wire shielded conductor cable is required to connect two operators together for dual operation. You must use Belden 8760 Twisted Pair Shielded Cable (or equivalent) only – P/N 2500-1982, per foot). See Page 23 for details of this connection. Note: The shield

wire should be connected in both the operators.

Mounting Pad Installation

The gate operator mounts bolted to posts secured in concrete footings. The posts support the operator and prevent it from moving during operation. For optional pad mounting instructions, see Linear drawing #2700-360.

Gate Preparation

Before installing, make sure the gate rolls or slides freely, and that all exposed rollers are properly covered. The gate must be covered with fabric with openings no larger than 2-1/4” in size, to a minimum height of 72” above ground level. On picket-style gates, if pickets are spaced less than 2-1/4” apart, mesh is optional.

Mounting Speciﬁ cations

Use two 3 - 3-1/2” OD galvanized posts and secure with concrete footings as shown, length to be determined by local codes, frost line depth and soil conditions.

Attach the operator with the U-bolts, side plates and hardware provided. Four 3/16” side plates go on the outside top and bottom, two 1/2” side plates go on the inside top, and two 3/16” side plates go on the inside bottom (see the illustration at right).

To assemble the drive chain and gate brackets, refer to Page 4. Make sure that the chain sag does not exceed recommended sizes and that the chain does not come into contact with the moving parts of the gate or ground.

WARNING

The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will not come into contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.

WARNING

The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment.

Gate Bracket and Chain Assembly

✓ NOTE: The item numbers shown in these illustrations

are for reference only. For the actual part numbers, refer to the parts lists in the rear of this manual.

Assemble a gate bracket (1) to the front edge of the gate, using two U-bolts (2), and mounting hardware (3). Before tightening down completely, be sure the bracket is parallel to the gate. Tighten the U-bolt hardware the rest of the way, then screw the square head bolts (4) into the threaded holes in the gate plate until they bottom out against the gate. These will help keep the bracket from twisting on the pipe.

Slide a threaded chain pin (5) through the bracket as shown, with spring (6), ﬂ at washer (10), and two hex nuts (7). Attach one end of the drive chain (8) to the chain pin using master link (9) and begin unrolling the chain toward the operator.

Remove the rain cover from the back of the slide gate operator. Carefully thread the drive chain under the ﬁ rst idler, over the drive sprocket, and then under the last idler. Make sure you feed most of the chain through the idlers and sprocket before attaching the chain to the back end of the gate.

Assemble the other gate bracket on the rear edge of the gate, using the same process as the front gate bracket. Once this is done, take the other chain pin, spring and jam nuts and assemble with the end of drive chain and the other master link.

At this point you should be able to adjust the chain tension by tightening the jam nuts on each end. Approximately 1/4” to 3/8” of slack per foot of drive chain is acceptable. Make sure the chain does not drag on the ground, across the gate rollers or the idler frame of the operator.

Additional mounting holes have been provided in the gate bracket for installer convenience.

Operator Setup

Controller Access

The Controller is protected by a plastic dust cover (single phase models only). To remove the dust cover, loosen the cover’s wing-screw and lift the cover off (see Figure 6).

Manual Disconnect

The manual disconnect shifter lever and the locking lever is illustrated in Figure 7. They can be found at the center bottom of the operator cabinet. (The handle of each has been ﬁ nished in easy to spot red ﬁ rm-grip coating.)

To disconnect the unit for manual operation, grasp the handle of the spring-loaded shifter lever and pull it directly toward you until the spring-loaded locking lever snaps into place behind it. This action disengages the pinned shifter block from the drive mechanism and holds the block in the disengaged position.

To re-engage the operator, move the locking lever to the right, releasing the spring-loaded shifter lever to snap back into the engaged position.

WARNING

ALL AC ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO THE POWER SOURCE AND THE OPERATOR MUST BE MADE BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN AND MUST OBSERVE ALL NATIONAL AND LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES

LOOSEN KNOB TO REMOVE CONTROLLER COVER

Figure 6. Controller Access

TO MANUALLY MOVE THE GATE, PULL SHIFTER LEVER TO DISENGAGE THE DRIVE TRAIN

GATE LIMIT SETTINGS WILL NOT BE AFFECTED WHEN GATE IS MANUALLY MOVED

AC Power Connection

All Linear gate operators are supplied with a power disconnect switch to turn on and off the power available to the operator. Following wiring speciﬁ cations on Page 2, incoming power should be brought into the operator and connected to the labeled pigtails from the disconnect box. A wiring connections print can also be found on the label inside the cover of the operator.

Proper thermal protection is supplied with the operator. The motor contains a thermal overload protector to guard from overheating the motor due to overload or high-frequency operation. This overload protector will reset automatically after the motor cools down.

Earth Ground

Install a ground rod and connect it to the operator’s frame in every gate operator installation. A good earth ground is necessary to allow the Controller’s built-in surge and lightning protection circuitry to work effectively. The physical bolting of the operator to the mounting posts is not sufﬁ cient for a good earth ground.

✓ NOTE: Do not splice the ground wire. Use a single piece of solid

copper 12 AWG wire between the ground rod and the operator.

1. Install an 8-foot long copper ground rod next to the operator mounting pad within three feet of the operator.

2. Use a clamp to connect a solid copper 12 AWG ground wire to the ground rod.

3. Route the ground wire to the operator.

4. Connect the ground wire to the operator’s frame.

Operator Setup (Cont.)

Open and Close Limit Adjustment

The limit nuts are not preset at the factory and must be adjusted for the gate in each installation. The limit switches are activated by two threaded nylon rotary limit nuts which are attached to a threaded limit shaft driven by a chain and sprockets from the main drive shaft. REMOVE THE CARDBOARD FILLER

BEFORE ADJUSTING THE LIMIT NUTS.

The Controller is factory setup for right hand installations. The OPEN limit switch is the one closer to the front of the operator. In left hand installations, the CLOSE limit switch is the one closer to the front of the operator (see Figure 9).

CAUTION

If the operator is installed in a left-hand installation. Set the Controller to left-hand operation BEFORE running the operator for the ﬁ ne setting of the limit nuts. Failure to do so will result in over-shooting the limit switches, and can cause damage to the operator and/or gate. Refer to programming on Page 11.

Limit Nuts Rough Adjustment

Before running the operator, set the limit nuts as follows:

1. With the gate connected to the gate operator in a mid-travel position, the power disconnect switch turned OFF, disconnect the operator by using the manual disconnect lever, once the operator has been disconnected, manually move the gate by hand to within a foot of its fully open position (the foot of distance is necessary to allow for coasting of the operator after the limit switch is tripped).

2. Once the gate is in this position, adjust the OPEN limit nut until it activates the limit switch for open. Press down the detent plate and rotate the nut along the threaded shaft (see Figure 10).

3. After setting the open limit, move the gate to one foot from fully closed and repeat the process for the CLOSE limit nut.

Limit Nuts Fine Adjustment

After ﬁ nishing the rough limit nut adjustments, reposition the gate to approximately the center of travel.

1. Re-engage the operator using the disconnect handle.

2. Turn the power disconnect switch ON.

3. Stand clear of any moving parts and press the OPEN button.

4. After the gate opens, press the CLOSE button.

5. Observe the gate in both directions as it runs through each complete cycle. Adjust the open or close limit nuts again if necessary. Fine levels of adjustment can be made by adjusting a few teeth on the nut at a time. If the gate stops during travel, you may need to adjust the Open or Close Current Setting or the Maximum Run Timer (see Pages 12-13).

Torque Limiter Adjustments

Before adjusting the torque limiter, make sure the gate is in good working condition. One person should be able to move the gate by hand. Be certain the gate moves freely and without binding throughout its travel. Torque limiters are set light at the factory and must be adjusted during installation. Adjust the torque limiter tight enough to keep it from slipping during normal operation. See Figure 11.

To adjust the torque limiter in model HSLG:

1. Loosen the jam nut.

2. To increase the output, turn the adjustment nut clockwise one ﬂ at, or 1/6 turn, at a time until desired output is obtained. To reduce the output, turn the adjustment nut counterclockwise one ﬂ at, or 1/6 turn, at a time until desired output is obtained.

3. Tighten the jam nut against the adjustment nut when ﬁ nished.
