NOTE:
When servicing or performing any maintenance to the gate operator always check the inherent
reversing system and secondary (external) reversing devices (loops, photo eyes, etc). If the inherent
reversing system cannot be made operable, remove the gate operator from service until the cause of
the malfunction is identifi ed and corrected. Keeping the gate operator in service when the inherent
reversing system is malfunctioning creates a hazardous condition, which can result in serious injury or
death if entrapped in the gate.
