IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING To reduce the risk of severe injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children.
3. Always keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF
THE MOVING GATE.
4. Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or when
an object activates the non-contact sensors. After adjusting the force or the limit of travel,
retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator properly can increase the
risk of injury or death.
5. Use the manual release only when the gate is not moving.
6. KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the owners manual. Have a qualified service per-
son make repairs to gate hardware.
7. The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use separate entrance.
8. Every gate operator installation M
MU
US
ST
T have secondary protection devices
against entrapment, such as edge sensors and photo beams more in particularly
in places where the risk of entrapment is more likely to occur.
9. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Install the gate operator only when:
a) The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate and the usage Class of the gate
(refer to page 5),
b) All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate
to a minimum of 4 feet (1.22 m) above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inch (57.2 mm)
diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and in that
portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position,
c) ALL EXPOSED PINCH POINTS ARE ELIMINATED OR GUARDED, AND
d) GUARDING IS SUPPLIED FOR EXPOSED ROLLERS.
2. 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 gate such that persons will not come in contact with the
vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.
3. The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate
and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging
gates shall not open into public access areas.
4. The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation
of the gate operator. Do not over-tighten the operator clutch or pressure
relief valve to compensate for a damaged gate.
5. The gate operator controls must be placed so that the user has full view
of the gate area when the gate is moving AND AWAY FROM THE GATE

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
6. Controls intended for user activation must be located at least six feet (6) away from any mov-
ing part of the gate and where the user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or
through the gate to operate the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls shall have a secu-
rity feature to prevent unauthorized use.
7. The Stop and/or Reset button must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the
reset control shall not cause the operator to start.
8. All warning signs and placards must be installed where visible in the area of the gate. A minimum
of two placards shall be installed. A placard is to be installed in the area of each side of the
gate and be visible to persons located on the side of the gate on which the placard is installed.
9. For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor (Photo beam or like) in
accordance with section 31.1.1 of the UL325 standard:
a) See instructions on the placement of non-contact sensors for each Type of
application (refer to page 6),
b) Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when
a vehicle, trips the sensor while the gate is still moving, and
c) One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment
or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or
barrier (refer to page 6).
d) Use only Omron E3K-R10K4 photoelectric eye to comply with UL325
10. For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor (Edge sensor or like) in
accordance with section 31.1.1 of the UL325 standard:
a) One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or
obstruction exists, such as at the leading edge, trailing edge, and post mounted
both inside and outside of a veh
