Determine A-B dimensions and set end positions

The swing gate operator twist 200 E is used as an example to show how to determine the A-B dimensions and how to set the end positions. The diagram can be transferred to the swing gate operators twist M, twist ML, twist 200 EL, twist 350 and twist XL. The possible A-B dimensions can be found in the A-B dimension tables of the respective assembly and operating instructions. It is shown how the travel length can be extended and shortened with the setscrews.
