 Installation Steps

 Preparation before Main Machine Installation
Before installing the door opener, please confirm that the door were installed correctly, please ensure that the door can be manually operated smoothly, and the door limit stopper can effectively prevent the door to continue moving. Please keep a distance of 40-50mm between the door bottom and the ground for installing the electric lock. If electric lock is not required, the distance between the door bottom and the ground should be ≥20mm; The recommended mounting height of the 2 main machines is around 300 ~ 800mm above the ground, and make sure there are reliable fixed points for mounting brackets.

Cable bury
In order to ensure the normal operation of the door opener and protect the cable from damage, please use two PVC pipes to bury the motor and power cables, and the control cables separately. One PVC pipe for motor and power cables, the other one for control cables.

Mounting brackets fixing
In order to install the SW400DC main machines firmly, it is recommended to use the expansion screws to fix the mounting brackets.

 Accessory Installation

•  Before installing the main machines, please install the wall bracket on the wall first, then fix the connecting bracket, finally install the front mounting bracket on the door. Note: Please detect by gradienter before fixing to ensure that the front mounting bracket and the connecting bracket are in the same level.
• The connecting bracket and wall bracket can be connected according to different conditions, please refer .
• Users should prepare power cables for the control box and the main machines by themselves due to the different installation environment. The cores for the control box power supply cable should be more than 3, the cores for the motor cable is 2. If users need to install external accessories like electric lock, infrared sensor, alarm lamp, external button switch etc., please increase the embedded cables accordingly, please make sure the sectional diameter of electric lock cable is over 1.5mm², sectional diameter of other cables is over 0.5mm². The cable length should be determined by users according to their installation situations.
  Note: The outlet on the PVC pipe should be downward in order to avoid the rain water flowing into the pipe along the cable.
