children.
Always keep people and objects away from the gate. No one should cross the path of the
moving gate.
This operator must be tested monthly. The gate must reverse on contact with a ridged object or
stop when an object activates the non-contact sensors. After adjusting the force or the limit
travel, retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator properly can
increase the risk of injury.
let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from
injury:
Keep gates properly maintained. Have a qualified service person make repairs to gate
hardware. It takes many years of experience to make proper adjustments to gate hardware or
operators.
There is nothing on a gate operator that is easily repaired without a great deal of experience.
Save yourself some time and call a qualified Gate Service Contractor who knows your type of
gate operator.

*Confirm that the gate is designed and built according to current published industry standards.
*Confirm that all appropriate safety features and safety accessory devices are being incorporated,
including both primary and secondary entrapment protection devices.
*Make sure that the gate works freely before installing the operator.
*Repair or service worn or damaged gate hardware before installation of the operator.
*Eliminate all gaps in a sliding gate below a 4 foot height that permits a 2 ¼ inch sphere to pass
through any location, including the area of the adjacent fence covered when the gate is in the open
position.
*Eliminate all gaps in a swinging gate below a 4 foot height that permit a 4 inch sphere to pass through
any location, including the hinge area of the gate.
*Operator must be disconnected from the power source before attempting any installation of
accessories.
*Install this gate operator according to our installation instructions.
*Adjust the operator clutch or load sensing device to the minimum force setting that will still allow for
reliable gate operation.
*Install the operator inside the fence line(do not install the operator on the public side of fence line).
*Install a proper electrical ground to a gate operator.
*Install controls where users cannot touch or reach through the gate to operate the controls.

DIFFERENT UL 325 CLASS TYPES
Class one: Residential
A vehicle gate operator intended for use at a home of one to four single family dwellings, garages or parking area.
Class Two: Commercial or General Public Access
A vehicular gate operator intended for use at a commercial location or building such as a multi-family housing unit (five or
more single family units), hotel, garages, retail stores, other buildings servicing the general public.
Class three: Industrial or limited Access
A vehicular gate operator intended for use at an industrial location or building such as a factory, loading dock area, or other
locations not intended to service the general public.
Class Four: Restricted Access
A vehicular gate operator intended for use at a guarded industrial location or building such as airport security areas or other
restricted access locations not servicing the general public where unauthorized access is prevented via supervision by
security personnel.
Other components required to satisfy UL 325
Each class must have a primary and secondary means to sense and react to obstructions within two seconds.
The six types of obstruction sensing systems are:
Type A:
Inherent obstruction sensing system. This system must sense and initiate the reverse of the gate within two seconds of
contact with a solid object.
Type B 1:
Provision for connection of a non-contact device can be used, such as a secondary protection.
Type B2:
Provision for connection of a contact sensor. Examples include an edge device or equivalent. This can be used for
secondary protection.
Type C:
Inherent adjustable clutch or pressure relief valve.
Type D:
Provision for connection of or provided with and actuation device requiring continuous pressure.
Type E:
Inherent audio alarm.
