IMPORTANT: Save these safety instructions. Make sure everyone who is using or will be around the gate
and gate opener are aware of the dangers associated with automated gates. In the event you sell the
property with the gate opener or sell the gate opener, provide a copy of these safety instructions to the
new owner.
Should you lose or misplace this manual, a copy can be obtained by downloading one from the Mighty
Mule web site (www.mightymule.com), by contacting GTO Access Systems, LLC., at 3121 Hartsfield Road,

Required Safety Precautions for Gates
Install Warning Signs
Warning signs
alert people of automatic gate operation and are
required
when installing the Mighty Mule Gate Opener.
The Warning Signs included must be installed on both sides of each gate. Furthermore, a walk-through gate must be
installed if pedestrian traffic is expected near the vehicular gate. We recommend using the GTO Bulldog Pedestrian Gate
Lock [FM145] (page 26) for controlled access.
Entrapment Protection
GTO’s inherent obstruction settings, even when properly adjusted,
may not be sensitive enough to prevent bodily
injury in some circumstances.
For this reason, safety devices such as safety edge sensors (or photoelectric sensors),
which stop and reverse gate direction upon sensing an obstruction, are suggested for enhanced protection against
entrapment.
