damage and any shortage of parts. Please
note that if accessories were ordered with this

Safety Information
Vehicular gate systems provide convenience and security. Gate systems are
comprised of many component parts. The gate operator is only one component. Each
gate system is specifically designed for an individual application.
Gate operating system designers, installers and users must take into account the
possible hazards associated with each individual application. Improperly designed,
installed or maintained systems can create risks for the user as well as the bystander.
Gate systems design and installation must reduce public exposure to potential hazards.
A gate operator can create high levels of force, in its function as a component part of a
gate system. Therefore, safety features must be incorporated into every design.
Specific safety features include:
Gate EdgesEnclosed TrackVertical Posts
Guards for exposed
rollers
Screen Mesh
Important instructions follow. These instructions are intended to highlight certain safety
related issues. These instructions are not intended to be comprehensive. Because
each application is unique, it is the responsibility of the purchaser, designer, installer
and end user to ensure that the total gate system is safe for its intended use.

Safety Instructions
Select instructions are highlighted with this precautionary symbol (see left margin).
Failure to follow these selected instructions can result in serious injury or death.
STEP 1: BEFORE INSTALLATION
1
Confirm gate operator model is specified by Installation and Maintenance
Manual for application type, gate size and frequency or use.
2
Confirm ALL appropriate safety features, such as gate edges, photo-electric
sensors, vertical posts and enclosed tracks, are specified.
3
Confirm gate system design reduces pinch points and protects against
entrapment.
4
Confirm gate system design has pedestrian access separate from vehicular
entrance.

Repair or service worn or damaged gate hardware before installation of
operator.
To avoid installation hazards, review the gate system operation and
installation procedures, such as manual disconnect mechanism procedure.
Confirm control design prohibits unauthorized use.
STEP 2: DURING INSTALLATION
1
Disconnect power at service panel before making any electrical connection.
2
Avoid pinch points, be aware of all moving parts.
3
Adjust clutch or load sensing device to minimum force setting.
4
Do not over-tighten cutch or adjust force setting above minimum.
5
Install controls where user cannot touch gate while operating controls.
6
Install controls where user has full view of gate operation.
7
Install two or more warning signs on the gate to alert persons in the area of
automatic gate operation. Warning signs must be conspicuous.

Safety Information
Safety Precautions for Open-Roller Gates and
Ornamental “Grill Type” Gates
OPEN-ROLLER GATES
Injuries occur when people get their or feet caught between the top or bottom of the
gate and the gate roller. This potential pinch-point should be guarded against at all
times. Enclosed style gate tracks are available for refitting of these rollers from
many fence suppliers. Also, roller guards are available for installing over the
rollers.
One ore more contact sensors shall be located at the leading edge, trailing edge,
and post-mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate.

Safety Information
ORNAMENTAL “GRILL TYPE” GATES
Injuries occur when people put their hands and arms through openings in the grill
and the gate is operated. They cannot retract their arms and it gets caught between
the moving gate grill and the stationary fence post or fence. This potential hazard
can be averted by placing a screen mesh on the gate to prevent access through
openings anywhere the gate may travel.

B.
These calculations are based on the National Electrical Code and allows for a
5% voltage drop.
C.
Supply voltage must be within 10% of the operator’s rating under load
conditions.
D.
These calculations are based on stranded copper wire.
E.
It is highly recommended that only 90% of the distances shown be used; this will
allow for a 10% safety factor.
F.
For dual units, the distance shown should be cut in half.
G.
When wire larger than 12 gauge is used, a separate junction box will be required
for operator power connections (not supplied).
H.
All local codes must be strictly adhered to.
I.
Do not run control wires in the same conduit with power wires.
