Compatibility and Installation Notes

This motor is suitable for sliding gates up to 800 kg, provided the gate track, rack, alignment, limit switch position, electrical supply, and safety accessories are installed correctly. Professional installation is strongly recommended because wrong force settings, poor rack alignment, or incorrect photocell wiring can create gate failure or injury risk. The F-500 manual also recommends photocell installation to reduce body injury or property damage risk and explains travel-limit learning requirements; review the technical guidance in the Foresee F-500 installation manual before installation.
