IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
It is important that only qualifi ed
installers handle installation of
HySecurity Gate vehicular gate
operators.
A “qualifi ed” installer has
one of the following:

A minimum of three years experience installing
similar equipment.

Proof of attending a HySecurity Technical
Training seminar within the past three years.

Significant manufacturer endorsements of
technical aptitude in gate operator installation
and operation.
Underwriter Laboratories (UL) and the American
Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) are
responsible for current safety standards and
regulations regarding gate operators and
automated gates. All aspects of gate installation
must comply with the appropriate safety standard.
For the most up-to-date ASTM F2200 Gate and
Fence Standards, refer to
www.astm.org. For UL
325 Safety Standard, refer to
www.ul.com.
A moving gate or barrier arm can cause serious
injury or death. To reduce the risk of injury or
death:
1.
READ AND FOLLOW ALL
INSTRUCTIONS. Read gate
operator’s product manual and
review all product labels and
literature prior to installing,
operating, or maintaining automatic
gate operator.
WARNING
A moving gate or barrier arm can cause serious
injury or death. Start gate operator only when
the gate's travel path is clear.
2. Never let children operate or play with gate
controls. Keep all remote controls, especially
radio transmitters, away from children. Do not
allow children to play on or around gate or
gate operators.
3. Always keep people and
objects away from gate. NO
ONE SHOULD CROSS THE
PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.
Start gate operator only when a
gate’s travel path is clear.
4.
Test gate operator monthly. Gate MUST
reverse on contact with a rigid object or stop
when an object activates non-contact sensors.
After adjusting force or limit of travel, retest
gate operator. Perform routine tests of
entrapment protection sensors, such as photo
eyes and gate edges. Failure to adjust and
retest gate operator properly can increase risk
of injury or death.
5. KEEP GATES PROPERLY
MAINTAINED. Read product
manuals. Have a qualified
service person make repairs
to gate hardware. Replace
batteries in accessory or
entrapment sensory devices.
6.
Use emergency release only when gate is not
moving.
7.
Automated gate entry is for vehicle use only.
Pedestrians must use a separate entrance.
Make sure a separate walk-through entrance
is nearby. Make certain a clear pedestrian path
is designated and signs direct pedestrians to
walk-through gate. No one should cross path
of a moving gate.
8. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
INSTALLER'S SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Study entire contents of this
manual prior to installing,
operating, or maintaining gate
operator. Taking extra time to align
gate operator and verify a fully
functional installation reduces
maintenance, guarantees longest system life,
and ensures customer satisfaction.

Verify gate operator usage class
for the site. For all gate operators
other than Crash-rated, refer
to Identifying Gate Operator
Category and Usage Class in
product manual. Install operator
only when gate operator class is
correct for site, size, and type of gate.

Install an automatic operator only on gates
that comply with ASTM F2200 Gate and Fence
Standards. Screen or enclose openings in gate
per UL 325 Safety Standards include:
• All horizontal slide gates must guard or
screen openings from gate’s base support
to a minimum height of 6 feet (183 cm)
above ground. This must prevent a sphere of
2¼-inches (57 mm) in diameter from passing
through an opening in gate or adjacent fence
that is covered in gate’s open position.
• Physical stops must exist in gate construction
to prevent over-travel in both directions and
guard posts must be installed to prevent gate
from falling in event of a roller failure.

Before attaching operator to gate, move gate
or barrier arm in both directions. Make sure it
is level and travels freely. A gate or barrier arm
that moves easily reduces strain on operator
components. Gravity should play no part in gate
opening or closing.

Never over-tighten a clutch or pressure relief
valve to compensate for a stiff or damaged gate.

Make sure all exposed pinch points,
rollers and wheels are guarded.
Reduce entrapment risk throughout entire travel
path, make sure gate is installed in a location so
enough clearance is supplied between gate and
adjacent structures when opening or closing.
Minimize parallel gap between gate and fence.

Install the gate operator on the secure (non-
public) side of the gate. Swing gates can not
open into public areas.

Mount access control devices beyond gate
reach. Permanently mounted control devices
that operate gate must be:
• Located in a clear line of sight
to gate. Locate controls (Open,
Close, Stop/Reset) where a user
will have a clear view of gate.
Activation of stop/reset shall
not start the operator.
• Mounted beyond 6 feet (183cm)
of any moving part of the gate, to
prevent users from touching or
accessing gate while operating
controls.
• People attempting to access
controls by reaching through or around gate
can be seriously injured or killed by moving
gate.
•
Incorporate a security feature to prevent
unauthorized use.

Gate operator must be properly grounded and
permanently wired to incoming power per local
codes. Input voltage must match junction box
voltage label.

HySecurity gate operators have terminals for
direct connection of up to three (3) external
entrapment protection sensors so pedestrians
are protected from entrapment in both directions
of gate travel and all hazard areas are fully
protected. On hydraulic gates, set pressure
relief valve at lowest allowable setting that
will reliably operate gate. Pressure relief valve
controls applied force of operator and sensitivity
of inherent entrapment sensor (IES). Note that
no IES exists in barrier arm operators.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Install at least two (2) WARNING signs (two are
supplied), with one on the inside and one on
the outside of gate so they are clearly visible
from both sides of gate. Installing clearly visible
WARNING as you approach the gate from either
side is a requirement for UL 325 compliance.

Connect radio and other remote access controls
(non-resetting) to RADIO OPTIONS terminal.

Open and close gate to confi rm that it was
properly installed and to ensure reduced risk
of entrapment. Verify clearance between gate
and adjacent structures per UL 325 Safety
Standards. Have a qualifi ed gate technician test
gate monthly.

When you complete installation, show end user
how to:
• Remove cover. Turn power off and on to
demonstrate relearn limits after DC/AC cycles.
• Turn DC power switch off, which disengages
motor, and manually push gate.
• Use Emergency Stop Button located on
operator. For some operators, it can be
accessed through a hole in the cover.

Never disable the Warn Before Operate buzzer.
This buzzer provides an alert that gate is about
to move.
NOTICE
Save these instructions.Gate operator
instructions must be given to owner per UL
325 Safety Standards.
OWNER/USER SAFETY REQUIREMENTS
Automatic gates are for vehicular
use only; provide and maintain
walkways and signs to direct
pedestrians to a separate walk-
through entrance.
An automatic gate can start at
any time without warning; always keep people
away from gate area.
Never let children operate or
play with gate controls. Keep all
remote controls, especially radio
transmitters, away from children.
Do not allow children to play on
or around gate or gate operators.

Learn how to turn power on and off. Learn how
to manually release gate.

Supplied WARNING signs must remain installed
and clearly visible on both sides of gate. Signs
required to maintain UL 325 compliance.

Never physically disable, disconnect, or cut
wires of Warn Before Operate buzzer. This
buzzer is required to function in an entrapment
event, regardless of UL 325 gate usage class
defi ned, and provides an alert that gate is about
to move.Disabling warning buzzer may increase
risk/extent of injury if entrapment occurs.
WARNING
A moving gate or barrier arm can cause serious
injury or death. Install an automatic operator
only on gates that comply with UL-325 Safety
Standards and ASTM F2200 Gate and Fence
Standards.
NOTICE
Ask for a copy of gate operator’s product
literature and review it. You are responsible for
educating all gate system users about proper
automated gate system use.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
ELECTRICAL SAFETY

Turn gate operator and all
circuit breakers OFF before
performing maintenance on
the gate operator or making
contactwithoutput receptacles.

NEVER insert any objects
into output receptacles during
operation. This is extremely
dangerous. The possibility
exists of electrical shock,
electrocution, or death.

NEVER let power wires lay in water.

NEVER use damaged or worn wire when
connecting equipment. Inspect for cuts in the
insulation.

NEVER grab or touch a live
power cord or cable with wet
hands. The possibility exists of
electrical shock, electrocution
or death.

Make sure power cables are securely connected
to the generator’s output receptacles. Incorrect
connections may cause electrical shock and
damage to the generator.

ALWAYS make certain that proper power has
been selected for the job. See Cable Selection
Chart in this manual.
GROUNDING SAFETY

ALWAYS make sure that
electrical circuits are properly
grounded to a suitable earth
ground (ground rod) per the
National Electrical Code (NEC)
and local codes. Severe injury
or death by electrocution can result from
operating an ungrounded operator.

NEVER use gas piping as an electrical ground.
BATTERY SAFETY
Some HySecurity operators use sealed, state-of-
the-art Absorbed Glass Mat (AGM) batteries and
highly recommends replacing used batteries with
new AGM-type batteries.
To reduce risk of fi re or injury to persons:

Observe polarity between batteries and
charging circuit.

Never mix battery sizes, types, or brands.
Charging circuit on HySecurity DC operators is
designed for AGM-type batteries, not lead acid-
type batteries. HySecurity strongly recommends
that only sealed AGM style batteries be used.
Exercise care in handling
batteries. Be aware metal found
in rings, bracelets, and keys can
conduct electricity, short
batteries, and cause potential
injury.
Do not open or mutilate batteries.
Battery cells contain corrosive
materials which may cause burns
and other injuries. Material within
batteries is toxic.

Always dispose of batteries properly. Do NOT
place batteries in fi re. Battery cells
may explode. Follow federal
guidelines for proper disposal of
hazardous waste.
ALWAYS keep battery cables in
good working condition. Repair
or replace all worn cables.
Replace batteries according to
instructions found in DC Battery
Replacement.
CAUTION
Batteries used with HySecurity gate operator
contain materials considered hazardous
to environment. Proper battery disposal is
required by federal law. Refer to Hazardous
Waste Regulations federal guidelines.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
DO NOT charge frozen battery. Battery can
explode. If frozen, warm the battery to at least
61°F (16°C).
ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY/HAZARDOUS
MATERIALS AND PROPER DISPOSAL
Decommissioning is a controlled
process used to safely retire a piece of
equipment that is no longer serviceable.
If the equipment poses an unacceptable
and unrepairable safety risk due to wear or damage
or is no longer cost effective to maintain (beyond
life-cycle reliability) and is to be decommissioned
(demolition and dismantlement),be sure to follow
rules below.

DO NOT pour waste or oil directly onto the
ground, down a drain or into any water source.

Contact your country's Department of Public
Works or recycling agency in your area and
arrange for proper disposal of any electrical
components, waste or oil associated with this
equipment.

When the life cycle of this equipment is over,
remove battery and bring to appropriate facility
for lead reclamation. Use safety precautions
when handling batteries that contain sulfuric
acid.

When the life cycle of this equipment is over, it
is recommended that the frame and all other
metal and plastic parts be sent to a recycling
center.
Metal and plastic recycling involves the collection
of metal and plastic from discarded products and
its transformation into raw materials to use in
manufacturing a new product.
Recyclers and manufacturers alike promote the
process of recycling metal and plastic. Using
a metal and plastic recycling center promotes
energy cost savings.
SECONDARY ENTRAPMENT PROTECTION
SENSORS
Most HySecurity gate operators are equipped with
a Type A, Inherent Entrapment Sensor (IES). UL 325
Safety Standard compliance requires installation of
external entrapment protection sensors, number
of which, depends on entrapment hazards that
exist at each particular installation.
To comply with UL 325, the following external
sensors may be used:
Contact sensors, such as edge sensors

Non-contact sensors, such as photoelectric eyes
Site designer or installer can choose either
photoelectric eyes, edge sensors, or a combination
of these devices. Whatever devices are used,
protection in both opening and closing directions
of gate travel must be provided.
UL 325 Safety Standard for automatic sliding
gates specifically requires that edge sensors,
photoelectric eyes, or a combination of both
devices be installed to protect against pedestrian
entrapment in BOTH directions of gate travel and
wherever entrapment hazards exist.
PHOTOELECTRIC EYES:
One or more non-
contact sensor (photoelectric eyes) shall be
located where entrapment risk or obstruction
exists, such as perimeter reachable by a moving
gate.
Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of
nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle trips the
sensor while the gate is moving.
CAUTION
A contact or non-contact sensor is also required
to protect against possible entrapment if gate
opens to a position less than 16 inches from
any object, such as a post or wall.
