IMPORTANT UL-325 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

AX3024U/ AX5024U

It is extremely important that all parties involved in the installation and operation of the gate operator system read and
understand the following warning instructions.

WARNING – To reduce the risk of 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 stop 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 emergency release only when the gate is not moving.

6. KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the installation manual and have a qualified service person make repairs to
gate hardware.

7. The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use separate entrance.

8. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Instructions regarding intended installation of the gate operator.

A. Install the gate operator only when:

1. The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate and the usage Class of the gate.

2. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of
4 feet (1.22m) above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inch (57.2mm) 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.

3. All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded.

4. Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.

B. The operator is intended for installation only on gates 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.

C. The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied betweehbe employed, and adjacent
structures when openening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates shall not open into public access
areas.

D. 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.

E. For gate operators utilizing Type D protection:

1. The gate operator controls must be placed so that the user has full view of the gate area when the gate is not
moving.

2. The placard provided marked in letters at least 1/4 - in (6.4mm) high with the word “WARNING” and the
following statement or equivalent: “Moving Gate Can Cause Serious Injury or Death” shall be placed adjancent
to the controls.

3. An automatic closing device (such as a timer, loop sensor, or similar device) shall not be employed.

4. No other activation device shall be connected.

G. All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded.

H. 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
area.

I. Controls intended for user activation must be located at least six feet (6’) away from any moving 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 security feature to prevent unauthorized use.

K. For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor:

1. See instructions on the placement of non-sontact sensors for each type of application.

2. Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle, trips the sensor while

the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier.

L. For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor:

1. One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the
leading edge, trailing edge, and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate.

2. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vehicular vertical lift gate.

3. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the pinch point of a vehicular vertical pivot gate.

4. A hardwired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so that the communication between the
sensor and the gate operator is not subjected to mechanical damage.

5. One or more contact sensors shall be located on the inside and outside leading edge of a swing gate.
Additionally, if the bottom edge of a swing gate is greater than 6 inches (152mm) above the ground at any
point in its arc of travel, one or more contact sensors shall be located on the bottom edge.

M. A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the gate where easily visible.

a. Power should be disconnected before installing or servicing a gate operator.
b. All electrical wiring should comply with all local building and electrical codes.
c. All entrapment zones and pinching points should be covered.
d. All safety devices should be tested to assure their proper functionality.
e. The operation of the gate system: operator, controls and safety devices should be reviewed with the end user
or owner, who should be informed of the need for periodic maintenance of the safety and control equipment.
f. All installation operating and safety manuals should be left with the owner.

N. All gate operators systems should include safety devices such as reversing edges or photocells in order to provide
added protection. These safety devices should be installed in accordance to the design and application of the system
being installed.
