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.
