OPERATION
RESET SWITCH/MANUAL DISCONNECT
The reset switch is located on the front of the operator and serves several functions. When referring to “toggling”
the reset switch it means pressing the reset switch to the RESET/DISCONNECT position, then back to the NORMAL
OPERATION position.
Toggling the reset switch will stop a moving gate during a normal open/close cycle, like a stop button. The operator
does not need to be reset after doing this. The reset switch will disable the gate in the present position and will
energize the solenoid lock for two minutes and disable the maglock for two minutes.
MODEL CSL24V SLIDE GATE
OPERATOR
Press the reset switch to RESET/
DISCONNECT to allow the gate to be
opened and closed manually. To
resume normal operation press the
reset switch to NORMAL OPERATION.
MODEL CSW24V SWING GATE
OPERATOR
Press the reset switch to RESET/
DISCONNECT. Release the handle on
the operator arm to allow the gate to
be opened and closed manually. On a
dual gate application the handle must
be released on both operators. To
resume normal function tighten the
handle by pushing it down.

OPERATION
OPERATOR ALARM
If a contact sensor detects an obstruction twice consecutively the alarm will sound
(up to 5 minutes) and the operator will need to be reset. If a command is given
after the initial 5 minutes the operator will beep.
When the inherent force of the operator (RPM/current
sensor) detects the following (twice consecutively) the
alarm will sound (up to 5 minutes) and the operator
will need to be reset:
Debris is on the gate's track
such as mud, rocks, dirt, etc.
(Slide Only)
Gate hinges are too tight or
broken and the gate is not
moving freely. (Swing Only)
The gate has one or more
broken axles or wheels.
(Slide Only)
A foreign object is on the gate
frame while the gate is moving.
(Swing Only)
The gate is hitting a wall or
vehicle.
The gate wheel is off the gate
rail. (Slide Only)
The gate is moving and a car
pushes the gate.
(Swing Only)
The gate does not meet
specifications.
The operator arm or gate is
incorrectly installed.
(Swing Only)
The gate hits the driveway, curb
or other, and gets stuck or bent
in an awkward position.
(Swing Only)
Remove any obstructions. Toggle the reset switch to shut off the alarm and reset the operator. After the operator is
reset, normal functions will resume.
REMOTE CONTROL
Once the remote control has been programmed operator will operate as follows:
When gate is in the closed position, activation of the remote control button will open the gate. During the open cycle
another activation of the remote control will stop the gate and the next activation of the remote control will close
the gate. When the gate is in the open position, activation of the remote control button will close the gate. If the
remote control is activated while the gate is closing, the gate will stop and the next activation will open the gate.

BATTERIES
Batteries will degrade over time depending on temperature and usage. For best performance, the batteries should
be replaced every 3 years. Use only LiftMaster part 29-NP712 for replacement batteries. The operator comes with
two 7AH batteries. Two 33AH (A12330SGLPK) may be used in place of the 7AH batteries.
The batteries contain lead and need to be disposed of properly. Batteries do not perform well in extremely cold
temperatures.
NOTE:
If your application includes a heater, two 33AH will not fit into the operator enclosure (swing only).
The operator alarm will beep 3 times with a command if the battery is low.
DRIVE CHAIN (SLIDE ONLY)
Over time, the drive chain on the operator will stretch and need to be tightened. To tighten the drive chain adjust
either of the two chain eye bolts.
NOTE: The chain should have no more than 1 inch of sag for every 10 feet of chain length.
