INTRODUCTION
This operator is intended to be installed on vehicular Class I or Class II gates as defined by
UL-325. Maximum gate load should not exceed 650 pounds.
PLEASE READ THIS ENTIRE MANUAL CAREFULLY PRIOR TO INSTALLATION.
Perform the installation in step-by-step order you will achieve optimal results. We
strongly recommend that all installation and service personnel pay particularly close
attention to the safety systems section of this manual and UL-325. In addition to the
current sense feature that is provided, other safety devices are necessary to make
each particular installation as safe as possible to reduce the risk of personal injury
and/or property damage. A trained and authorized service technician or the
factory should be consulted for assistance.
Cautions - Very Important
Do not attempt to enter the gate area while the gate is moving. Wait until the gate comes
to a complete stop.
Operate the gate only when it is fully visible, free of persons or obstructions, and
properly adjusted.
Do not allow children to play in the area of the gate. Do not allow anyone to ride on the
gate.
Do not allow children to play with the remote/transmitter or any other activation
device.
Do not attempt to "beat the gate" while the gate is opening or closing. This is
extremely dangerous.
Test the current sense feature and all safety devices regularly to insure correct
operation.
Study the entire Safety Section (page 22-25), paying particularly close attention to the
Entrapment zones on page 23-25 and be aware of these areas not only during use but
also during any adjustments to the unit.
