Carefully read follow, and accept all safety precautions and warnings before attempting to install and use
gate swing linear arm operator, incorrect installation can lead to severe injury or death.
- The gate operator must be installed by a certified (licensed) gate technician; otherwise serious personal
injury or property damage may occur.
- Installing a gate operator may require installation of standard 110v-120v AC electrical wiring. This work
should only be performed by an experienced electrician. Miswiring could cause personal injury or death.
- Never let children operate the gate or play around the gate. Keep the remote control away from children.
- Always keep people and objects away from the gate. Cars, people, and objects should never enter when
the gate is closing.
- Verify that this operator is proper for the type, weight, and size of the gate.
- Make sure the gate has been properly installed and swings freely in both directions with no resistance.
Repair or replace all worn or damaged gate hardware prior to installation.
- Test gate operator monthly. The gate must reverse when in comes in contact with a solid object, or stop
when an object activates the non-contact sensors. after adjusting the force or travel limit, re-test the gate
operator. Failure to maintain the gate operator properly can increase the risk of injury or death.
- Use the emergency release only when the gate is not moving.
- Keep the gate and gate operator properly maintained. Read the maintenance section of this manual and
follow the maintenance schedule. Have a certified service technician make repair or install gate operator
hardware(s).
- Gate operator can use a huge amount of force to open and close the gate. Therefore, safety features
must be taken into consideration when installing and using a gate operator. Specific safety feature include:
photoelectric sensors, edge sensors (contact), moving gate warning signs, guards for exposed rollers,
screen mesh, vertical posts, and more.
- 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.
- Entrapment is defined as when a person, vehicle, or object is caught or held in a position that increases
the risk of injury.
- Access controls intended for users must be located at least 6 feet (1.8m) 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.

- A minimum of two (2) warning signs shall be installed, one on each side of the gate that is easily visible.
- Gate auto closed timer function is not recommended unless loop detectors are installed.
- The gate must have sufficient room when opening and closing. Swinging gates should open inwards and
not into public access areas. The gate must be properly installed and move freely in both directions.
- Install the gate operator only when: 1) The operator is appropirate for the construction of the gate and the
usage class of the gate, 2) All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded.
- 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) The placard shall be placed adjacent to the
controls, 3) An automatic closing device (such as timer, loop sensor, or similar devices) shall not be
employed, and 4) No other activation device shall be connected.
- The gate operator is intended for installation only on vehicular gates. Pedestrians must access a
separate entrance. The pedestrian entrance shall be designed for pedestrian usage. The gate must be
installed in a location so that pedestrians will not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire
path of travel of the vehicular gate.
- For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor, 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.
- For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor: 1) one or more contact sensors shall be located at the
leading edge, trailing edge, and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular 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 contact sensor 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 of impeded by building structures, natural land-
scaping or similar obstructions. A wireless contact sensor shall function under the intended end-use cond.
- Controls intended to be used to reset an operator after 2 sequential activations of the entrapment
protection device(s) must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate. Outdoor or easily accessible controls
shall have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use.
