ALWAYS KEEP
SAFETY
IN MIND WHEN ADJUSTING OR
SERVICING YOUR AUTOMATIC GATE OPENER!
IMPORTANT: For safety reasons the obstruction setting or
Stall Force on the Mighty Mule Gate Opener control board
comes from the factory set at
MIN (minimum). In many gate
installations this setting will need to be adjusted to overcome
the weight and size of the gates.
The Stall Force potentiometer on the control board operates
like a volume control on a radio. It controls the amount
of force the opener will apply to an obstruction before it
automatically stops and reverses direction for approximately
two (2) seconds.
Use a small flathead screwdriver to turn the arrow in
the center of the potentiometer. Adjust the control from
the MINIMUM position where the gate operates without
obstructing from its own weight or the wind conditions in
your area.
NOTE: You may need to increase the
stall force in cold weather due to increased
resistance from gate hinges.

CLOSE TIME
Set Auto-Close Time
The Auto-Close determines how long the gate will remain open
before it automatically closes. The factory setting is OFF. Use a
small flat blade screwdriver, you can adjust the settings to OFF,
or from 3 to 120 seconds.
NOTE: Auto-Close timer is disabled (gate will not automatically
close) if gate is not at the fully open position.
