Setting the Closed Position Limits

Your Mighty Mule® has two Limit Settings

1) OPEN Limit setting: (Gate in the OPEN POSITION / FACTORY SET NOT ADJUSTABLE) The open limit setting is
the fully open position.

2) CLOSED Limit setting: (Gate in the CLOSED POSITION) To achieve optimum closed position, you are required
to complete the following SEVEN STEPS:

Step 1

Confi rm that the power switch is in the ON position, and the gates are in the OPEN POSITIONS.

Step 2

Activate your openers by pressing the entry transmitter button. Your gates should now be moving from the fully open
positions toward their closing position. Prepare to STOP gate that reaches the desired closed position fi rst by pressing the
entry transmitter button again. This step may be repeated until desired close position is achieved. Once the desired CLOSED
position has been achieved, proceed to step 3.

Step 3

With the gate that closed fi rst in the desired closed position, program the closed limit setting by setting the number 4 DIP
switch on the DUAL MODES switches to the OFF position (if the MASTER gate closed fi rst) or the ON position (if the
SLAVE gate closed fi rst) then PRESS & HOLD the “SET LIMIT" button on the control board for 5 seconds.

Step 4

Press the transmitter button and allow the gates to return to the fully open position. YOUR FIRST GATE’S CLOSED
POSITION LIMIT IS NOW PROGRAMMED.

Step 5

Activate your openers again by pressing the entry transmitter button. Your gates should now be moving from the fully open
positions toward their closing position. The fi rst gate will stop at the spot you just programmed and the second gate will
continue to close until you press the transmitter button again. The optimum CLOSED POSITION for the second gate is
when it closes fi rmly, without excess tension, against the fi rst gate.
This step may be repeated until desired close position is achieved.
Once the desired CLOSED position has been achieved, proceed to
step 6.

Step 6

With the second gate in the desired closed position. Program the
closed limit setting by setting the number 4 DIP switch on the
DUAL MODES switches to the ON position (if the MASTER gate
closed fi rst) or the OFF position (if the SLAVE gate closed fi rst)
then PRESS & HOLD the “SET LIMIT" button on the control
board for 5 seconds.
