Setting the Closed Position Limits

for Pull to Open Applications

Your GTO PRO® has two Limit Settings

1) 

OPEN Limit setting:

 (Gate in the OPEN POSITION / FACTORY SET  NOT ADJUSTABLE)  The open limit setting is 

the fully open position. The tube on the operator arm must be fully retracted.

2) 

CLOSED Limit setting:

 (Gate in the CLOSED POSITION)  To achieve optimum closed position, you are required 

to complete the following SEVEN STEPS:

Step 1

Confirm that the power switch is in the ON position, and the gates are in the OPEN POSITIONS.

Step 2

Activate your openers by pressing the entry transmitter button. Your gates should now be moving from the fully open 
positions toward their closing position. Prepare to STOP gate that reaches the desired closed position first by pressing the 
entry transmitter button again. This step may be repeated until desired close position is achieved.  Once the desired CLOSED 
position has been achieved, proceed to step 3.

Step 3

Note which gate has reached the desired closed position (typically it's the slave gate), program the closed limit setting by 
pressing and holding the corresponding 'LEARN MAST LIMIT' or 'LEARN SLV LIMIT' for 5 seconds.

Step 4

Press the transmitter button and allow the gates to return to the fully open position. YOUR FIRST GATE’S CLOSED 
POSITION LIMIT IS NOW PROGRAMMED.

Step 5

Activate your openers again by pressing the entry transmitter 
button. Your gates should now be moving from the fully open 
positions toward their closing position. The first gate will 
stop at the spot you just programmed and the second gate will 
continue to close until you press the transmitter button again. 
The optimum CLOSED POSITION for the second gate is 
when it closes firmly, without excess tension, against the first 
gate. This step may be repeated until desired close position 
is achieved.  Once the desired CLOSED position has been 
achieved, proceed to step 6.

Step 6

Repeat step 3 for the other gate that has not been set in step 3. 

Step 7

Press the transmitter button and allow the gates to return 

to the fully open position. BOTH YOUR MASTER AND 

SLAVE GATE’S CLOSED POSITION LIMITS ARE NOW 
PROGRAMMED.

NOTE:

 

For heavier gates you may need to increase the stall force (see pg 24). If the gate still does not open or close to the 

limits you have set, check to ensure that the gate installation was performed correctly according to the guidelines set forth on 
page 11. If the transmitter does not activate the gate operator you may have to reset the transmitter code (see pg 25).
