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 and/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 opener installation

must comply with any applicable local codes.

I. Before Installation

1. Verify this opener 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 opener 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 opener for manual gate operation (see page 1).

4.

This gate opener is intended for

vehicular gates ONLY. A separate entrance or gate must be installed

for pedestrian use (see page 6).

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.

Pay close attention to the diagram below and be aware of these areas at all times.
