ii LPA 3000XLS/3200XLS Instruction Manual
Thank you for purchasing a Linear PRO Access 3000XLS/3200XLS. When correctly installed and properly
used, your LPA 3000XLS/3200XLS operators will give you many years of reliable service. Please read the
following information to ensure you have the correct system for your particular needs. This manual will
enable you to properly install your 3000XLS/3200XLS Automatic Gate Operators.
The 3000XLS/3200XLS operators are designed for installation on pull-to-open dual leaf gates. The gates
must not exceed 16 feet in length nor weigh more than 650 pounds* per leaf (please see Technical
Specications on page 1). The 3000XLS/3200XLS operators can be used on vinyl, aluminum, chain link,
farm tube, and wrought iron gates. Use on solid (wood) gates is not recommended. Solid surface gates
have a high resistance to the wind. If the wind is strong enough, the operators will obstruct, stop, and
blow fuses.
The 3000XLS/3200XLS can be installed on push-to-open gates with the addition of two (2) push-to-open
brackets [R4388].
The 3000XLS/3200XLS operators accommodates extra transmitters, digital keypads, solar panels, push
buttons, automatic gate locks, and other access control products. These optional accessories are noted
with the symbol.
The 3000XLS/3200XLS operators feature adjustable stall force. This safety feature makes the gates stop
and reverse direction within two seconds when it comes in contact with an obstruction. The “MIN” setting
means the gate will exert the minimum force on an obstruction before it stops and reverses direction.
The 3000XLS/3200XLS operators also have an adjustable auto-close feature. After the gates reach
the fully open position, they can be set to remain open from 3 to 120 seconds before automatically
closing. Pressing the transmitter button at any time after the gates fully open will cause them to close
immediately. “OFF” is the factory setting; meaning the gates will stay open until you press the transmitter
button (or keypad, etc.) again.
Please call Linear PRO Access at [phone] for more information about our professional line of gate
operators and accessories. Our Sales Department will be glad to give you the name and phone number of
a Linear PRO Access dealer near you.

LPA 3000XLS/3200XLS Instruction Manual iii
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Because automatic gate operators produce high levels of force, consumers need to know the potential
hazards associated with improperly designed, installed, and maintained automated gate operator
systems. Keep in mind that the gate operator is just one component of the total gate operating system.
Each component must work in unison to provide the consumer with convenience, security, and safety.
This manual contains various safety precautions and warnings for the consumer. Because there are
many possible applications of the gate operator, the safety precautions and warnings contained in
this manual cannot be completely exhaustive in nature. They do, however, provide an overview of the
safe design, installation, and use of this product. CAREFULLY READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS, WARNINGS, AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS TO ENSURE THE SAFE
SYSTEM DESIGN, INSTALLATION, AND USE OF THIS PRODUCT.
Precautions and warnings in this manual are identified with this warning symbol. The symbol
identifies conditions that can result in damage to the operator or its components, serious injury, or
death.
Because GTO automatic gate operators are only part of the total gate operating system, it is the
responsibility of the installer/consumer to ensure that the total system is safe for its intended
use.
How To Manually Open and Close the Gate:
CAUTION: The gate can be opened and closed manually when the operator is disconnected.
ONLY disconnect the operator when the power switch is OFF and the gate is NOT moving.
Disconnecting the Operator
1. Turn operator power switch (Control Box) OFF.
2. Remove hairpin clip, clevis pin, and bushing from both the front and
rear mounting points.
3. Remove the operator from the mount.
CAUTION: Because the LPA gate operator is battery powered,
disconnect the operator ONLY when the power switch on the contol
box is turned OFF. Unplugging the transformer does not turn power
to the operator OFF.
NOTE: Substitute a Pin Lock [FM345] for the clevis pin on the front
mount of the gate operator to prevent unauthorized removal of the
operator from the gate.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
For The Consumer
WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Failure to meet the requirements set forth in the instruction manual
could cause severe injury or death, for which the manufacturer cannot be held responsible.
2. When designing a system that will be entered from a highway or main thoroughfare, make sure the system is placed
far enough from the road to prevent traffic congestion.
3. The gate must be installed in a location that provides adequate clearance between it and adjacent structures when
opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates must not open into public access areas.
4. The gate and gate operator installation must comply with any applicable local codes.
I. Before Installation
1. Verify this operator is proper for the type and size of gate, its frequency of use, and the proper class rating.
2. Make sure the gate has been properly installed and swings freely in both directions. Repair or replace all worn or
damaged gate hardware prior to installation. A freely moving gate will require less force to operate and will enhance
the performance of the operator and safety devices used with the system.
3. Review the operation of the system to become familiar with its safety features. Understand how to disconnect the
operator for manual gate operation (page iii).
4. This gate operator is intended for vehicular gates ONLY. A separate entrance or gate must be installed for
pedestrian use (page vi).
5. Always keep people and objects away from the gate and its area of travel. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH
OF A MOVING GATE.
6. Pay close attention to the diagram below and be aware of these areas at all times.
Entrapment Zones for a proper Pull-To-Open installation:
Zone 1 – leading edge of the gates.
Zone 2 – between the gate and the gate post.
Zone 3 – the path of the gate.
Zone 4 – the space between the gate in the open position and any object such as a wall, fence, etc.
Zone 5 – pinch points between the operator and gate.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
II. During Installation
1. Install the gate operator on the inside of the property and fence line. DO NOT install an operator on the outside of
the gate where the public has access to it.
2. Be careful with moving parts and avoid close proximity to areas where fingers or hands could be pinched.
3. Devices such as contact sensors (safety edges) and non contact sensors (photo beams) provide
additional protection against entrapment.
4. If push buttons or keypads are installed, they should be within sight of the gate, yet located at least 10 feet from any
moving part of the gate (see diagram below). Never install any control device where a user will be tempted to
reach through the gate to activate the gate operator.
5. Do not activate your gate operator unless you can see it and can determine that its area of travel is clear of people,
pets, or other obstructions. Watch the gate through its entire movement.
6. Secure outdoor or easily accessed gate operator controls in order to prohibit unauthorized use of the gate.
III. After Installation
1. Attach the warning signs (included) to each side of the gate to alert the public of automatic gate operation. It
is your responsibility to post warning signs on both sides of your gate. If any of these signs or warning decals
become damaged, illegible or missing, replace them immediately. Contact LPA for free replacements.
2. The gate is automatic and could move at any time, posing a serious risk of entrapment. No one should be in
contact with an activated gate when it is moving or stationary.
3. Do not attempt to drive into the gate area while the gate is moving; wait until the gate comes to a complete stop.
4. Do not attempt to “beat the gate” (drive through) while the gate is closing. This is extremely dangerous.
5. Do not allow children or pets near your gate. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep ALL
gate controls away from children and unauthorized users; store controls where children and unauthorized users do
not have access to them.
6. KEEP GATE AND GATE Operator PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Always turn power to operator OFF before
performing any maintenance. Regularly grease the gate hinges. Apply silicone spray to a soft, dry cloth and clean
the push-pull tube at least once a month.

Required Safety Precautions for Gates
Install Warning Signs
Warning signs alert people of automatic gate operation and are required when installing the GTO Gate Operator. The
Warning Signs included must be installed on both sides of each gate. Furthermore, a walk-through gate must be installed
for pedestrian traffic. We recommend using the GTO Bulldog Pedestrian Gate Lock [FM145] for controlled
access.
Entrapment Protection
The gate operator’s inherent obstruction settings, even when properly adjusted, may not be sensitive enough to
prevent bodily injury in some circumstances. For this reason, safety devices such as safety edge sensors (or
photoelectric sensors), which stop and reverse gate direction upon sensing an obstruction, are suggested for enhanced
protection against entrapment.

LPA 3000XLS/3200XLS Instruction Manual vii
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Secondary Means of Protection Against Entrapment
As specified by Gate Operator Safety Standard, UL 325 (30A.1.1), automatic gate operators shall have an inherent
entrapment sensing system, and shall have provisions for, or be supplied with, at least one independent secondary
means to protect against entrapment. The 3000XLS/3200XLS utilizes Type A, an inherent (i.e., built-in) entrapment
sensing system as the primary type of entrapment protection. Also, the 3000XLS/3200XLS has provisions for the
connection of Type B1 or B2 protection to be used as the secondary type of entrapment protection, if desired.
1. For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor (e.g., photo-electric sensor– Type B1) in accordance with UL 325
(51.8.4 [h]):
A. Refer to the sensor manufacturer’s instructions on the placement of non-contact sensors for each type of
application.
B. 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.
C. 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.
2. For gate operators utilizing a contact sensor (e.g., safety edge sensor– Type B2) in accordance with UL 325 (51.8.4
[i]):
A. One or more contact sensors shall be located at the leading edge, bottom edge, and post edge, both inside and
outside of a vehicular swing gate system.
B. A hard wired 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.
C. 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 obstruction. A wireless contact sensor shall
function under the intended end-use conditions.
You may want to consider adding photo beams to your installation. GTO Photo Beams [R4222] provide a “non contact”
means of entrapment protection.
ENTRAPMENT ALARM (UL 325; 30A.1.1A)
The 3000XLS/3200XLS Gate Operators are designed to stop and reverse within 2 seconds when a gate comes in
contact with an obstruction. Additionally, these operators are equipped with an audio entrapment alarm which will
activate if the unit obstructs twice while opening or closing. This alarm will sound for a period of 5 minutes, or until
the operator receives an intended signal from a hard wired entry/exit source (e.g. push button control or keypad) and
the gate returns to a fully open or fully closed position. Turning the power switch on the control box OFF and back
ON will also deactivate the alarm. Wireless controls such as transmitters and wireless keypads will not deactivate the
alarm.

8. Materials You may Need for the Installation:
Depending on the type of gates and posts, you may need some additional materials/hardware.
• Low voltage wire [RB509]. Length depends upon the distance between the transformer power
supply and the control box. (Page 17)
• If the gate is more than 1000’ away from an AC power source you will need to use at least one 10
watt Solar Panel [FM123] to trickle charge the battery. (Page 2)
• PVC Conduit. (Page 7)
• The diameter of the post should be at least 6” in order to mount the post bracket. (Page 7)
• Depending upon the diameter of the post, you may need longer bolts than those provided. Bolts
should be at least 1” longer than the diameter of the post. (Page 7)
• Metal plate for wooden posts. (Page 7)
• A horizontal or vertical cross members or mounting plates may be needed to mount the operators
to the gates. (Page 3)
• Some types of installations require U-Bolts. (Page 11)
• Surge protection for transformer. (Page 18)
• Weatherproof cover for transformer if installed outside. (Page 18)
• For push-to-open applications you must have two (2) PTO Brackets [R4388).

9. Installation Overview
Pull-To-Open Gates (Gate Opens into the Property)
The diagram shown below is an example of a Pull-To-Open installation on a chain link fence and dual
gate. Mounting the operators on masonry columns requires special procedures; see Column Installation
Information on page 28. Furthermore, if you have a Push–To–Open gate, see Push–to–Open Installation
on page 26 before proceeding.
Install the Master Gate Operator (3000XLS)
Install the Post Bracket Assembly
The post bracket is designed to work on a at post. Posts
must be at least 6” square in order to bolt the post bracket.
When using bolts to mount the post bracket, the bolts must
completely penetrate the post.
• The best method of attaching the post bracket to a
metal post is welding.
• If your post exceeds 8”, it will be necessary to use hex
head bolts longer than those supplied.
• Round wood posts (no smaller than 8” diameter) may
be notched to create a at surface for attaching the
post bracket.
• Wood posts will require a metal plate (not provided)
between the nuts and post to prevent the operator
from pulling the bolts and washers through the wood.
• A post smaller than 6” in diameter should be made
of metal instead of wood so that it will remain stable
while the operator is moving the gate.
• Masonry columns will require masonry anchors/
hardware (not provided).

Step 1
Close the gate and place your level
against the horizontal cross member.
Position the level so that the top should
be in the center of the cross member
and overlaps the post. Scribe a line
across the cross member and post.
You will use this line to help determine
position of post and gate brackets.
Step 2
Position the post bracket on the post with the mounting holes
centered over the scribe line. The post bracket should be
ush with the edge of the post closest to the gate. Mark the
position of post bracket holes on the post.
Step 3
Drill holes through post as marked using a 3/8” drill bit. Install
the post bracket using the 3/8” x 8” hex head bolts and 3/8” at
washers, lock washers, and nuts (provided).
Step 4
Place the end of post pivot bracket with two holes inside the
post bracket. (Notched end of Post Pivot Bracket should face
gate, to accommodate the operator arm.) Align the back hole
in the post pivot bracket with back hole in the post bracket.
Insert 3/8” x 3” hex head bolt and washer through post pivot
bracket and post bracket and secure with 3/8”washer, lock
washer and nut.

Step 5
Position the operator rear mount between post pivot bracket.
Place a 1/2”bushing above the rear mount and a 3/16” bushing
under the rear mount. Align the hole in rear mount, bushings
and post pivot bracket and secure with the 2 1/2” clevis pin
and hair pin clip.
Step 6
Place a 3/16”bushing under the front mount and attach the
gate bracket to the front mount using the 1 3/4”clevis pin and
hairpin clip.
Check Clearance
Step 7
Open the gate to the desired open position. Position the
operator so that the gate bracket rests against the gate along
the level scribed line. Check the clearance between the
operator and the gate. The operator should only make contact
with the gate at the gate bracket. There should be a minimum
clearance of 2”between the widest part of the operator arm
and the gate.
When you have achieved the best position for the post pivot
bracket in the open position, insert the 3/8” x 3” bolt and 3/8”
at washer through the aligned holes of the post bracket and
post pivot bracket to hold it in place.
Clamp the gate bracket to the gate using c-clamps or another
type of clamp.
IMPORTANT: While determining the position of the post
pivot bracket, be sure that the position allows for minimum
2“ of clearance between the gate and the operator in both
the open and closed positions. This clearance will give the
operator the most ecient leverage point for opening and
closing the gate and, more importantly, provides the least
possible pinch area.

Step 8
Remove the clevis pin from the front
mount and while supporting the gate
operator, swing the gate and gate
operator to the closed position. With
the gate and gate operator in the closed
position check the clearance and be sure
that the gate operator is not binding at
the post pivot bracket.
If you don’t have 2”clearance or the
gate operator is binding on the post
pivot bracket, remove the bolt in the
post bracket and readjust the pivot
bracket until you can achieve the proper
clearance.
With the post pivot bracket in the optimum position for clearance and freedom of movement, replace
the bolt in a post bracket adjustment hole and secure with 3/8”washer, and lock nut. Return the operator
to the open position and reattach the gate bracket. Recheck the gate operator level and clearance in the
open position. Adjustment of the gate bracket will be necessary if the post bracket was moved. After
verifying clearance, make sure the gate bracket is clamped securely.
Install Gate Bracket
Step 9
Detach the front mount from the gate
bracket. Check that the gate bracket
holes are centered over the scribe
line. Mark the gate in the center of the
gate bracket holes. Remove the gate
bracket and drill the 1/2” holes through
the gate cross member and attach the
gate bracket using the 1/2” x 2 3/4” bolts,
washers and lock nuts.
Attach Operator
Step 10
Make sure the gate is in the open
position and the operator arm is fully
retracted. Attach the operator to the
securely bolted post bracket assembly
and gate bracket using clevis pins,
bushings, and hairpin clips, or optional
Pin Lock [FM345]. Verify that the
operator is level, bolts are tight, and
adjust the post bracket assembly if
necessary.
