Safety Precautions 

 

 

Please read the following as common-sense reminders for the installation and use of the 
Gatekeeper YG.  This is an electrical/mechanical device that can cause injury or death! 
 

 

Installing the YG-5602/1 Gate Opener requires standard 110V or 230V electrical 
wiring.  This work should be performed by a professional electrician.  Mis-wiring 
could cause personal injury or DEATH!  To prevent electrocution, be sure to turn 
off all power to the YG-5602/1 until installation is complete. 

 

 

Please keep hands, fingers and loose clothing away from moving parts as they 
may be dragged into moving parts. 

 

 

The gate may move at any time.  Ensure all persons are clear of the gate when it is 
moving to avoid injury.  Do not touch the gate while it is moving.  Do not pass 
through gate until all motion is completed.  

 

 

Do not allow children or pets near your gate.  Keep remote controls away from 
children.  Place controls where they cannot be reached through the gate. 

 

 

To avoid electric shock, unplug unit before opening case. 

 

 

Make sure the battery inside the opener is fully charged before use.  Achieve this 
by plugging in the Control Box for at least one hour before you begin 
programming. 

 

 

Before installation, use the key to unlock the linear actuators. 

 

 

The automatic gate opener must be grounded by connecting the electrical ground 
wire to the controllers’ ground terminal. 

 

 

Additional safety equipment such as photoelectric sensors, safety edges, roller 
guards, and warning signs should be installed. 

 

 

In the event of power failure, an emergency release key operates the gate 
manually. 

 

 

Do not modify the components of the automated system; serious personal injury 
or property damage may occur.
