Important Notes

ENG

FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY AND KEEP THEM FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

WARNING

• Intended for use with children

from 6 months through 24 months.

• Check the stability of the gate

and tighten all hardware and mountings regularly.

• To prevent serious injury or death,

securely install gate or enclosure and use according to manufacturer’s instructions.

• Never use with a child able to

climb over or dislodge/open the gate or enclosure.

• Do not use if any part of gate is

broken or missing.

• Never use if gate is less than

child’s height.

/4of

• When installed as instructed, between two clean structurally sound surfaces, this gate conforms to:

ASTM F-1004-09 United States Standards EN 1930:2000 European Standards

This gate is designed for children from 6 months to 24 months. Since each child’s skills develop at different ages, these age parameters should be monitored against your child’s own development.

• Discontinue use if any part of gate is damaged.

• This product will not necessarily prevent all accidents. Never leave child unattended.

• Use only spare parts available from KidCo.

• Never allow child to climb or swing on gate.

• Use only with the locking/latching mechanism securely engaged.

• Closely supervise child when gate is installed at the top of stairs.

• Never climb over the gate.

• Never hang or tie toys etc. to any part of the gate.

Maintenance

• No part of the gate requires lubrication.

• Clean using warm soapy water, or a damp cloth.

• Do not use abrasive cleaners or bleach.

• If using outdoors, and to help prevent rust, treat metal parts with a rust inhibitor. Some rusting may still occur.

Gate Installation

For further clarification, please see back of user guide for corresponding drawings.

1. Important-Gate must be installed in a

structurally sound opening. The gate must be mounted to a rigid surface. Ensure mounting surface (wall, door frame, stairposts, etc.) is strong, rigid and has an even surface.

2. If using gate on a stairway, it must be placed either on top stair or on lowest stair at the bottom. (Figs. 1 & 2)

3. When assembling the gate, it is important that the sections fit without any distance between rails or bars. (Fig 3).

FINDING APPROPRIATE WIDTH OF GATE

With the two sections aligned against each other, place gate against one side of opening where it is to be installed. The distance between the opposite side of gate and wall/doorframe must be between 2” – 4

5. Once proper gate width is achieved, place assembly parts (d1) and (e1) on top gate rail, and place assembly parts (d2) and (e2) on bottom rail. Insert screws (f) and screw sockets (g) into all four assembly fittings according to (Fig 4).

6. Place handle and hinge parts (h), (i), (j) and (k) onto the gate.

Insert the screws (l) and the screw sockets (m) into all four parts according to picture. Do not fully tighten yet. (Fig. 5)

7. HINGE SIDE MOUNTING

Screws provided are for mounting directly into wood. If mounting into brick, drywall or other surfaces, use appropriate hardware. If installing into hardwood (i.e. oak), drilling a pilot hole may be necessary.

Cut out templates along all dotted lines, separating template (a) from (b).

Hold template (a) vertically and completely outstreched against mounting surface with the end marked " " even with the floor. Mark screw hole positions. Remove the template. (Fig. 6)

8. Using 2 wood screws (o) mount upper hinge bracket (n) with the hole and the post pointing up, in top 2 screw hole positions. Using 2 wood screws (o) mount lower hinge bracket (p) with angled side facing down, in bottom 2 screw hole positions. (Fig. 7)

/4”. (Fig.3)

9. LOCKING SIDE MOUNTING

Hold template (b) vertically and completely outstreched against mounting surface with the end marked " " even with the floor. Mark screw hole positions. Remove the template. (Fig. 8)

10. Determine which direction the gate should

open. For the top of stairways, gate should never open out over the stairs. Insert stop pin (t) into holes of lower locking bracket (s). Insert stop clip (y) into upper latch (r). (Fig. 9) The longer portion of the stop pin and the outer edge of the stop clip should both be on the same side. Important – The gate cannot open to the stop pin/stop clip side. Using 2 wood screws (o) mount lower locking bracket (s) with hole facing up, in bottom 2 screw hole positions. Using 2 wood screws (o) install upper locking bracket (w). Place part (r) onto upper locking bracket (w). (Fig. 10).

11. Place gate onto hinge parts. Next, place

spring (u) and hinge cap (v) onto upper hinge bracket post. (Fig 11)

12. IMPORTANT: ENSURE HINGE CAP CAN-

NOT BE PUSHED UP AND IS LOCKED IN PLACE (Fig. 12)

Center gate in the opening. Loosen screws on parts (h), (i), (j), and (k) and adjust so they rest securely into hinge and locking side brackets. The distance between gate and wall/doorframe must be between 1” – 2

If gate is installed on an angle, part (r) will need to be rotated so that the gate handle rests securely inside upper locking bracket. (Fig.14) Once the gate handle rests securely inside locking bracket, slide locking cap (q) onto upper locking bracket (w).

IMPORTANT: ENSURE LOCKING CAP CANNOT BE PUSHED UP AND IS LOCKED IN PLACE.

Be certain to tighten all gate screws (h), (i), (j) and (k).

/8”. (Fig 13)

Operation

3. To open gate, pull top locking latch back-

wards with your thumb and lift gate up and out of hinge. (Fig. 15).

Window Barrier Installation

Gate must be installed in one of two ways: either inside window casing (Fig. 16) or directly onto face of window casing (Fig. 17).

Follow ’gate’ installation instructions through #6. After cutting out templates (a) and (b), hold template (a) vertically and completely outstreched against mounting surface with the end marked ""even with bottom of window or resting on window sill. Do this for both templates and continue following ’gate’ installation instructions until #12.

If mounting directly to face of window casing, stop pin (t) will not be needed. If mounting inside window casing, continue following ’gate’ instructions exactly from #12 through completion.

IIMMPPOORRTTAANNTT

If gate is outside mounted to a wall or window (instead of a doorframe), it is very important that the wall hardware is flush with the edge.

When the gate is in place make sure that: (Fig. 18)

a) The distance between the wall/door frame and the 1st bar is between 1” – 2 sides. b) The distance between the floor and the lowest part of the gate frame is between

/4” – 21/2”.

/8” on both

4. When closing gate, be sure that both upper

and lower locking side parts are resting securely in brackets and the upper latch is locked.

c) The spring is placed on top of hinge part on gate. It must not be underneath.

d) The stop pin is placed so that the gate can not open out over the stairs - if any.

e) The catch on the handle can move freely (back and forth) and that it fits properly into the slot on the upper locking bracket.

f) All screws are tightened.

NOTE. GATE SHOULD ALWAYS BE IN THE LOCKED POSITION. IF GATE IS OPEN AND EXCESSIVE PRESSURE IS APPLIED, (SUCH AS STANDING OR SWINGING ON THE GATE) STRUCTURAL DAMAGE MAY OCCUR.

15. Temporary Removal

The gate may be removed by pressing back on the locking tab on top of upper hinge while sliding the hinge cap up. Remove spring and lift gate off top and bottom hinges. FOR SAFETY

REASONS, RETURN SPRING AND HINGE CAP ONTO HINGE POST, MAKE SURE CAP IS LOCKED IN PLACE.
