WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury or death:
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
2. Distribute and discuss copies of the IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS manual with all persons
authorized to use your gate. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
3. Always keep people and objects away from the gate and its area of travel.
NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.
4. Your automatic gate is not for pedestrian use. If pedestrian traffic is expected near the gate, a walk-through
gate must be installed for this purpose (see page 6).
5. Do not allow children or pets near your gate. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep
the remote controls away from children and unauthorized users; store controls where children and
unauthorized users cannot access them.
6. If push buttons or key switches are installed, they should be within sight of the gate, yet located far enough
from the gate (at least 10 feet) so the gate cannot be touched while in operation. Do not operate any control
without watching the movement of the gate.
7. 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.
8. If your gate has open rollers, be sure that roller guards have been installed to prevent hands and fingers from
being caught in the rollers (see page 6).
9. It is your responsibility to make sure that the installer posted 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 your installer or GTO for replacements.
10. Verify that electric safety edge sensors (or photoelectric sensors) have been installed (see page 6). These
safety devices should be tested monthly.
11. KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Have a qualified service person make repairs to the gate
hardware. NEVER REMOVE THE OPERATOR HOUSING.
12. DO NOT attempt to service this operator yourself; for service, contact your installer or another experienced
technician.
13. Have your gate operator tested monthly and serviced regularly by an experienced technician. The gate MUST
stop and reverse on contact with an obstruction or when an object activates the non-contact sensors. If these
functions are observed to operate improperly, discontinue use and have operator serviced immediately.
14. To operate this equipment safely, YOU must receive detailed instructions on disconnecting the operator
chain with the quick release pins (see page 1). If you feel you have not received full and proper instructions,
contact your installer.
15. Disconnect the operator chain ONLY when the gate is NOT moving and turned off.
