Instructions regarding intended installation:
Vehicular gates should be constructed and installed in accordance with ASTM F2200; Standard Specification for Automated
Vehicular Gate Construction. For a copy of this standard, contact ASTM directly at 610-832-9585; [email protected]; or
www.astm.org.
Important Safety Instructions
WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
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 gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.
4. Test the operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or stop or reverse 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!
•Install the gate operator only if:
1. The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate and the usage class of the gate.
2. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 4 feet
(1.22 m) above the ground to prevent a 2 ¼ inch (57.2 mm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings
anywhere in the gate, and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position.
3. All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded.
4. Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.
•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.
•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.
•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, pressure relief valve or reduce reversing sensitivity to compensate for a damaged gate.
•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 warning placard shall be placed adjacent to the controls.
3. An automatic closing device (such as a timer, loop sensor, or similar device) shall not be employed.
4. No other activation device shall be connected.
•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 should have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use.
•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.
•A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the gate where easily visible.
•For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor:
1. See the 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 in the opening direction.
3. One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exist, such as the
perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier.
ASTM F2200 Standard for Gate Construction

6003-065-J-7-10 5
•For gate operators utilizing contact sensors:
1. One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exist, 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 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 or
impeded by building structures, natural landscaping or similar obstructions. A wireless contact sensor shall function
under the intended end-use conditions.
6. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vertical barrier (arm).
Vehicular gate operator products provide convenience and security. However, gate operators must use high levels of force
to move gates and most people underestimate the power of these systems and do not realize the potential hazards associ-
ated with an incorrectly designed or installed system. These hazards may include:
•Pinch points
•Entrapment areas
•Reach through hazards
•Absence of entrapment protection devices
•Improperly located access controls
•Absence of vehicle protection devices
•Absence of controlled pedestrian access
In addition to these potential hazards, automated vehicular gate systems must be installed in accordance with the UL 325
Safety Standard and the ASTM F2200 Construction Standard. Most lay persons are unaware of, or are not familiar with,
these standards. If an automated vehicular gate system is not properly designed, installed, used and maintained, serious
injuries or death can result. Be sure that the installer has instructed you on the proper operation of the gate and gate
operator system.
Be sure that the installer has trained you about the basic functions of the required reversing systems associated with your
gate operating system and how to test them. These include reversing loops, inherent reversing system, electric edges,
photoelectric cells, or other external devices.
•This Owner’s Manual is your property. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
•Be sure that all access control devices are installed a minimum distance of 10 feet away from the gate and gate
operator, or in such a way that a person cannot touch the gate or gate operator while using the device. If access
control devices are installed in violation of these restrictions, immediately remove the gate operator from service
and contact your installing dealer.
•Loops and loop detectors, photo-cells or other equivalent devices must be installed to prevent the gate from
closing on vehicular traffic.
•The speed limit for vehicular traffic through the gate area is 5 MPH. Install speed bumps and signs to keep
vehicular traffic from speeding through the gate area. Failure to adhere to posted speed limits can result in
damage to the gate, gate operator, and to the vehicle.
•Be sure that all persons who will use the gate system are familiar with the proper use of the gate and gate
operator and are familiar with the possible hazards associated with the gate system.
•Be sure that warning signs are permanently installed on both sides of the gate in an area where they are fully
visible to traffic.
•It is your responsibility to periodically check all entrapment protection devices. If any of these devices are
observed to function improperly, remove the operator from service immediately and contact your installing or
servicing dealer.
•Follow the recommended maintenance schedule.
•Do not allow children to play in the area of the operator or to play with any gate-operating device.
•To remove the gate operator from service, operate the gate to the full open position and then shut off power to
the operator at the service panel.

SECTION 1 - INSTALLATION
1.1 Manual Key Release
Manually key release the actuator. Powered shaft can be
pulled out.
It is important to consider hinge placement on a pilaster
when installing the gate. Placing hinges close to the
edge of the pilaster can eliminate a potential entrapment
area (See Swing Gate Requirements on page 8).
Powered Shaft
Prior to
beginning the
installation of the swing
gate operator, we suggest
that you become familiar with the
instructions, illustrations, and wiring
guide-lines in this manual. This will help
insure that your installation is performed in an
efficient and professional manner compliant with
UL 325 safety and ASTM F2200 construction standards.
The proper installation of the vehicular slide gate operator is an
extremely important and integral part of the overall access control
system. Check all local building ordinances and building codes prior to
installing this operator. Be sure your installation is in compliance with local
codes.
The actuator arm can be manually operated in case of power failure. Never manually release the arm until you have verified that
ALL power has been shut-off to it (Including batteries).

1.4 Mounting Actuator Arm
Gate must be in good working condition before the actuator arm can be installed. Determine what direction the actuator arm
will open the gate: “Opening to the Outside” or “Opening to the Inside” Installation (See 2 previous pages).
If brackets are going to be welded to the gate and/or wall, only tack weld the brackets with the arm attached. Protect the arm
from welding sparks during tack welding. Remove arm before completely welding around the brackets. Make sure the
brackets are level when tack welding them! The arm will not operate properly if not level.
It is very important that the powered shaft is not fully extended when installed on the gate (bottoming out). This will damage the
arm. To prevent this, manually release the arm and fully extend the powered shaft. Rotate it back two full turns before
installing the arm.
This illustrates when the gate is “Opening to the Inside” Only.
Front bracket and operator
always stay in a fixed location.
Rear bracket is adjusted for
gate hinge inset.
A support bar that spans the entire length of the gate must be installed to keep the pickets from bending. Do not mount the
front bracket directly to gate pickets!

Install Warning Signs
1.5 Mounting Control Box with Conduit
This DoorKing Swing Gate Operator is shipped with two warning signs. The
purpose of the warning sign is to alert uninformed persons, and to remind
persons familiar with the gate system, that a possible hazard exists so that
appropriate action can be taken to avoid the hazard or to reduce exposure
to the hazard. See page 9 for suggested mounting positions of signs.
•Permanently install the supplied warning signs in locations so
that the signs are visible by persons on both sides of the gate.
•Use appropriate hardware such as wood or sheet metal screws
(not supplied) to install the warning signs.
Primary
Actuator
Cable
Secondary Actuator Cable Conduit
Control Box must be
properly grounded.
Power Conduit Loops Conduit
Position the control box on the wall, close enough to the operator so the primary operator cable can be easily routed inside
the box. Make sure that the control box is mounted high enough off the ground that it will NOT come in contact with standing or
flowing water. This will damage the internal components. Secure the control box to the wall with appropriate hardware (not
included). Control box has predrilled mounting holes. All power and control wires should be routed to control box in conduits
with sweeps. Never run low voltage rated wire insulation in the same conduit as high voltage rated wire insulation.
Permanent wiring must be installed to the operator as required by local electrical codes. It is recommended that a licensed
electrical contractor perform this work. Check local building codes prior to installing any permanent wiring to ensure all wiring
and connections comply with local electrical code requirements.
•3/4” conduit recommended. Use only sweeps for conduit bends and NOT elbow connectors. Elbows will make
wire pulls very difficult and can cause damage to wire insulation.
•Remove fragile components from control box to protect them during installation if necessary.

Before attempting to connect any wiring to the control box, be sure that the circuit breaker in the electrical panel is in the OFF
position. Permanent wiring must be installed to the control box as required by local electrical codes. It is recommended that a
licensed electrical contractor perform this work.
Since building codes vary from city to city, we highly recommend that you check with your local building department prior
to installing any permanent wiring to be sure that all wiring to the control box (both high and low voltage) complies with
local code requirements.
THIS GATE OPERATOR MUST BE PROPERLY GROUNDED!!

In addition to the inherent entrapment sensing system, this operator has provisions for the connection of a non-contact (type
B1) secondary entrapment protection device. This is required by UL 325 standards. DoorKing highly recommends installing
loops and loop detectors to enhance this secondary entrapment protection.
Entrapment protection devices are required to reduce the risk of injury. Install sensors where the risk of entrapment or obstruc-
tion exists while gate is moving.

2.4 Main Terminal Wiring
Controls must be far enough from the gate so that the user is prevented from coming in contact with the gate while operating
the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls should have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use. When installing
electrical equipment make certain all wiring complies with local code requirements. Do not power any control devices from the
circuit board other than low voltage devices.
