IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Entrapment Protection
GTO’s internal 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 augmented protection against
entrapment.
Required Safety Precautions for Gates
Warning Signs
The warning signs (at left) must be installed
on both sides of the gate (see page 7 for
details).
Warning signs alert people of automatic gate operation and are required when installing the GTO/PRO 1000 and
series gate operators. Furthermore, a walk-through gate must be installed if pedestrian traffic is expected near the
vehicular gate. We recommend the GTO Bulldog Pedestrian Gate Lock (see Accessory Catalog) for controlled access.
1. KEEP CLEAR! Gate may move at any time.
2. Do not allow children to operate gate or
play in gate area.
3. This gate is for vehicles only. Pedestrians
must use a separate entrance.
