PLEASE READ THIS FIRST!
iii
Thank you for purchasing a
GTO/PRO® 4000XL
When correctly installed and properly used, your
GTO/PRO®
4000XL Operator
will give you many years of reliable service. Please read the following information to ensure you
have the correct system for your particular needs. This manual will enable you to properly install your
GTO/PRO®
4000XL Automatic Gate Operator
.
The
GTO/PRO® 4000XL Operator
is designed for installation on a
pull-to-open or push-to-open single leaf
gate.
The gate must not exceed 20 feet in length (per leaf) nor weigh more than 1000 pounds (per leaf) (please see
Technical Specifications
on page 10). The
GTO/PRO® 4000XL Operator
can be used on vinyl, aluminum, chain
link, farm tube, and wrought iron gates. Use on solid (wood) gates is not recommended. Solid surface gates have a
high resistance to the wind. If the wind is strong enough, the operator will obstruct and stop.
The
GTO/PRO® 4000XL Operator
accommodates extra transmitters, digital keypads, solar panels, push buttons,
automatic gate locks, and other access control products. These optional accessories (see the
Accessory Catalog
) are
available.
The
GTO/PRO® 4000XL Operator
features
adjustable obstruction sensing.
This safety feature makes the gate
stop and reverse direction within 2 seconds when it comes in contact with an obstruction.
MIN
is the factory setting;
meaning the gate will exert the minimum force on an obstruction before it stops and reverses direction.
The
GTO/PRO® 4000XL Operator
also has an
adjustable auto-close feature
. After the gate reaches the fully open
position, it can be set to remain open up to 120 seconds before automatically closing. Pressing the transmitter button
at any time after the gate opens fully will cause it to close immediately.
OFF
is the factory setting; meaning the gate
will stay open until you press the transmitter (or keypad, etc.) again.
