To prevent SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH from a moving gate:
• Entrapment protection devices MUST be installed to protect anyone who may
come near a moving gate.
• Locate entrapment protection devices to protect in BOTH the open and close gate
cycles.
• Locate entrapment protection devices to protect between moving gate and RIGID
objects, such as posts or walls.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:
• READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
• ANY maintenance to the operator or in the area near the operator MUST NOT be
performed until disconnecting the electrical power and locking-out the power via
the operator power switch. Upon completion of maintenance the area MUST be
cleared and secured, at that time the unit may be returned to service.
• Disconnect power at the fuse box BEFORE proceeding. Operator MUST be
properly grounded and connected in accordance with national and local electrical
codes. NOTE: The operator should be on a separate fused line of adequate
capacity.
• NEVER let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control
away from children.
• ALWAYS keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS
THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.
• Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid
object or stop when an object activates the non-contact sensors. After adjusting
the force or the limit of travel, retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and
retest the gate operator properly can increase the risk of INJURY or DEATH.

service person make repairs to gate hardware.

there are no obstructions to door travel.
