Gate Operator Installation Checklist
1. The gate has been checked to make sure it is level and moves freely in both directions.
2. Potential pinch areas have been guarded so as to be inaccessible OR have
sensing edges and/or photo beam obstruction detection devices installed.
3. The installer has installed one or more contact or non-contact
obstruction sensing devices, if required for this installation.
4. If pedestrian traffic is expected, a separate pedestrian gate has been installed, a minimum
of seven feet from the gate system. All pedestrian traffic must use the pedestrian gate.
5. Warning signs have been installed on each side of the gate in highly
visible locations. These signs must remain at all times.
6. There are no controls installed on the gate operator, or within 10 feet of the gate.
7. The Dual Sense Technology™ feature has been properly adjusted and tested to make
sure that the gate stops and reverses a short distance with minimal resistance applied.
8. Reviewed and understand all of the operational functions,
obstruction sensing devices, warning beeper and reset, etc.
9. Review and understand the proper use of the operator’s manual disconnect feature. The
manual disconnect must never be used while the gate is in motion. The power switch
must be turned off before using the manual disconnect and disengaging the operator.
10. Reviewed all safety instructions, and keep the safety instructions
and owner’s information sheets for reference.
11. Review and understand the maintenance schedule for both the gate and the gate operator.
