Always Check the Gate’s Action
It’s very important before installing the gate operator to
make sure the gate slides free and level throughout the
entire opening distance. If the gate does not seem to
operate properly, it may affect the operator performance
or greatly shorten the life of the unit. The gate should also
be designed so that airflow is ample to prevent wind
resistance and dra g.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH TO
PERSONS, REVIEW THESE INSTALLATION SAFETY STEPS
BEFORE PROCEEDING
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
2. ALL ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO THE POWER
SUPPLY MUST BE MADE BY A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN
AND MUST OBSERVE ALL NATIONAL AND LOCAL
ELECTRICAL CODES.
3. A separate power-disconnect switch should be located near
the operator so that primary power can be turned off when
necessary.
4. Install the enclosed warning signs on both sides of the gate.
A minimum of two (2) warning signs shall be installed, one
on each side of the gate where easily visible.
5. Never reach between, thro ugh or around the fence to operate
the gate.
6. Never connect a button station within reach of the gate or on
the side of the gate operator.
7. Do not adjust the operator controller’s current sensing feature
too high. It should be adjusted high enough to keep t he gate
from falsely triggering the sensing, but no higher than
necessary for the gate to operate. DO NOT DEFEAT THE
PURPOSE OF THIS FUNCTION!
8. You must install all required safety equipment.
9. UL325 Compliance requires the use of contact edges of
photoelectric controls on all automatic or remotely -controlled
gate operators.
10. The operator is intended for installation only on gates used
for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate
access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be
designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gates
such that persons will not come into contact with the
