END-USER SAFETY WARNINGS
The manufacturer of the gate operator does not know what type of gate you have, or what type of automatic
system is installed on your gate. Be sure you've been fully instructed on the sequence of operation for your
specific gate system(s). Keep gate properly maintained and have a qualified service person make repairs.
1.
▲
Be sure the following safety instructions are distributed to all persons authorized to use your gate.
2.
▲
KEEP GATEWAY CLEAR (Front and back) AT ALL TIMES. Your automatic gate is not for
pedestrian use. No one should ever cross the path of the moving gate.
3.
▲
Do not allow children to play near your gate, or to operate the gate.
4.
▲
Do not operate your gate system unless you can see it when the gate moves.
5.
▲
Be sure a push-button or key switch has been installed for manual electric operation in the event your
radio or card control does not work. Any mounted control station should be located a minimum of 10
feet from the gate so the gate cannot be reached through or touched. Any push-button located in a
building should be installed within sight of the gate.
DO NOT operate any controls without watching the movement of gate.
6.
▲
If your gate has open rollers, be sure roller guards have been purchased and installed.
7.
▲
Your gate system is required to have a primary and a secondary entrapment safety system installed
and maintained (See page 7 & 8).
8.
▲
If your gate closes automatically, loop detectors should be installed to detect the presence of a
vehicle.
9.
▲
DO NOT
increase current sensor adjustment to compensate for a damaged gate. The gate should
always be maintained to operate manually as easily as possible to provide maximum protection.
10.
▲
Check all safety systems at least once per month for the correct force, speed, and sensitivity. Gate
must reverse when hitting a rigid object, or when non-contact sensor is activated. If these functions are
observed to operate improperly, discontinue use and service immediately!
11.
▲
Your operator is equipped with a pad lockable emergency disconnect for manual operation. Be sure
you have a key and understand how to operate this equipment. To operate this equipment safely, you
must receive detail instruction on the operation of the manual disconnect from your installing dealer. If
you have not received instruction, (See Fig. 7) or contact the factory.
NEVER OPERATE THE
MANUAL RELEASE WHEN THE GATE IS MOVING.

You are responsible for ensuring that warning signs are installed and maintained on both sides of
your gate.
