important safety information
WARNING – To reduce the risk of injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
18 3/4”
14 5/8”
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 owner’s manual. 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

ul 325 compliant
installation requirements
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 exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded.
B The operator is intended for installation only on gates used 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 between the gate and adjacent structures when
opening 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 moving,
2 A gate operator shall additionally be provided with a placard that is marked in letters at least 1/4-in (6.4-mm) high with
the word “WARNING” and the following statement or the equivalent: “Moving Gate Has Potential of Inflicting Injury or
Death - Do Not Start Gate Unless Path is Clear”.
3 An automatic closing device (such as a timer, loop sensor, or similar device) shall not be employed, and
4 No other activation device shall be connected.
F Controls intended for user activation must be located at least ten feet (10’) 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.
G The Stop and/or Reset button must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause
the operator to start.
H A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the gate where easily visible.
I For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor:
1 See instructions on the placement of non-contact 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 gate is
still moving, and
3 One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the
perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
J 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 at 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 A wireless device such as one that transmits radio frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator for entrapment protection
functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures
natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless device shall function under the intended end-use conditions.
6 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 (152 mm) above the ground at any point in its arc of travel, one or
more contact sensors shall be located on the bottom edge.
7 One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vertical barrier (arm).

intended use of
swing gate operator
The operator is intended for use on a VEHICULAR swing gate ONLY. It is intended to be used WITH appropriate entrapment
protection safety devices and in-ground vehicle loop detection system.
Closing Gate Protection Photocell: Helps protect the gate operator
from accidentally closing on vehicles in the gate’s closing path.
Warning Signs: Should be installed
on both sides of gate area and
easily visible.

installation
Read and understand this entire manual before installation. Check with the local building department prior to installing this gate
operator to comply with local building code requirements. 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
should not open into public access areas.
Gate Operator position
The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to installation of the gate operator.

Retro-Fit Arm Option
When replacing an existing gate operator, the arm may not be able
to conform to the preferred arm position (90° from gate in open
position). The positions illustrated below can be acceptable as long
as the gate operator cycles smoothly and there is NO gate hesitation
when gate starts cycling in either direction.

optional remote power supply kit - max magic box
A remote power supply is for installations where it is too costly or difficult to trench a 115/230 VAC power line to the operator
but instead run a low voltage power line to the operator. A MAX Magic Box Kit (sold separately) is required to remotely install
the MAX PS-24 power supply.
Install the MAX Magic Box near the 115 VAC or 230 VAC input AC power source, up to 1000 ft away from gate operator.
Remove MAX PS-24 power supply from gate operator and place in MAX Magic Box. See page 19 for MAX Magic Box wiring
instructions.
NOTE: A MAX Magic Box kit is required for EACH gate operator when using dual gate operators.
