Alpha/Delta (Kinetic Operator) Installation and Maintenance Manual Revision 1 - MAY 2023
21
SAFETY STANDARDS - INSTALLER'S RESPONSIBILITY
Safety Standards - Installer's Responsibility
• Study the entire contents of this manual prior to installing, operating, or maintaining the Kinetic gate
operator. Taking extra time to align the gate operator and verify a fully functional installation will
reduce maintenance, guarantee longest system life, and ensure customer satisfaction.
• Verify the gate operator usage class for the site. Refer to “Identifying Gate Operator Category and
Usage Class” on page 27 . Install Kinetic only when the gate operator class is correct for the site
and type of gate.
• Install an automatic operator only on gates that comply with ASTM F2200 Gate and Fence Standards.
Screen or enclose openings in the gate per UL 325 Safety Standards.
- All horizontal slide gates must guard or screen openings from the gate’s base support to a minimum
height of 4 feet (122cm) above the ground. This must prevent a sphere of 2.2 inches (57mm) in
diameter from passing through an opening in the gate or the adjacent fence that is covered in the
gate’s open position.
- Physical stops exist in the gate construction to prevent over-travel in both directions and guard posts
prevent the gate from falling in the event of a roller failure.
• Before attaching the operator to the gate, slide the gate in both directions. Make sure it is level and
moves freely. A gate that slides easily reduces strain on operator components. Gravity should play no
part in the opening or closing of the gate.
• Make sure all exposed pinch points, rollers and wheels are guarded.
• To reduce the risk of entrapment throughout the entire travel path, make sure the gate is installed in
a location so enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening or
closing. Minimize the parallel gap between the gate and the fence.
• Make sure a separate walk-through entrance is nearby. Make certain a clear pedestrian path is
designated and signs direct pedestrians to the walk-through gate. The automated gate entry is for
vehicle use only. No one should cross the path of a moving gate.
• Install the gate operator on the secure (non-public) side of the gate. Locate controls (Open, Close,
Stop/ Reset) where a user will have a clear view of the gate.
• Mount access control devices beyond reach of the gate. The control devices that operate the gate
must be:
- Located in a clear line of sight to the gate.
- Mounted beyond 6 feet (183cm) of the gate, to prevent users from touching or accessing the gate
while operating the controls. People attempting to access the controls by reaching through or around
the gate can be seriously injured or killed by the moving gate.
