If a vehicle tries to push gates
open, arms will give when NOT
in the locked position and allow
gates to move without damaging
the gate operators.
The tamper relay will be
activated for a few seconds
which will trigger a camera or
alarm system if desired.
When replacing an existing gate operator, the arm may not be able
to conform to the preferred arm position (90° from gate in open
position). The positions illustrated below can be acceptable as long
as the gate operator cycles smoothly and there is
NO
gate hesitation
when gate starts cycling in either direction.
After you’re satisfied testing the arm in the
FULL OPEN
and
FULL CLOSED
positions, weld gate bracket and arm.
