GTO 4000XLS Instruction Manual © 01.10.12 23
If this operator will be used with gates that are mounted on masonry, brick, or rock (etc.) columns, read
the following carefully before proceeding
A. The simplest solution is to install the operator in a push-to-open conguration. The minimum
clearance is easier to achieve and clearance is no longer a problem, since the operator will be
pushing the gate away from the column instead of pulling it toward the column. It is recommended
that you place a steel plate between the operator mounting brackets and masonry surface for
additional strength.
B. If a push-to-open installation is impossible due to trac hazards, terrain, etc., another option is to re-
hang the gate. You may hang it on a post, either in the center of the column or at the back corner, or
move the gate to the back corner of the column.
C. The most dicult solution is to cut a notch in the column to accommodate the operator and power
cable.ThisjobisNOTfortheinexperienced!*
