PLEASE READ THIS FIRST!

Thank you for purchasing a GTO/PRO® 4000/4200. When correctly installed and properly used, your GTO/PRO®
4000/4200 Operators 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® 4000/4200 Automatic Gate Operators.
The GTO/PRO® 4000/4200 Operators are designed for installation on a pull-to-open leaf gates (gates that open
into the property). By purchasing an accessory bracket, the GTO/PRO® 4000/4200 Operators can accommodate
push-to-open gates (gates that open out from the property). The gates 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® 4000/
4200 Operators 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® 4000/4200 Operators accommodate 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® 4000/4200 Operators feature adjustable obstruction sensing. This safety feature makes the gates
stop and reverse direction within 2 seconds if they come in contact with an obstruction. MIN is the factory setting;
meaning the gates will exert the minimum force on an obstruction before they stop and reverse direction.
The GTO/PRO® 4000/4200 Operators also have an adjustable auto-close feature. After the gates reaches the fully
open position, they can be set to remain open up to 120 seconds before automatically closing. Pressing the transmitter
button at any time after the gates open fully will cause them to close immediately. OFF is the factory setting; meaning
the gates will stay open until you press the transmitter (or keypad, etc.) again.
