Difficulty installing Faac gate opener - grigadale - 07-05-2012

I purchased a Faac gate motor, control unit and two remotes from a showground. Two years later I am ready to install. I have made and installed the gate with spline welded below pivot. The motor, control unit and remotes each have manuals containing information poorly translated into English and I cannot follow them. I am trying to email Faac UK for advice but so far received no response. Are there local installers? I live near Oswestry, Shropshire.

If these are original FAAC parts, you can also look here for English installation instructions:

Though (or maybe because) I'm not a native English speaker myself, I find the English versions of most of their manuals rather well written but the truth is that most of them are meant for a technical audience and not DIY users.

BTW, which models are your operator, control board, receiver and remotes ?
