2. With the hardware provided (packaged in the interlock housing), mount the interlock to the
mounting pad welded to the gate post.
3. Using the ¼”-20 unc hardware supplied, bolt the strike to the mounting pad on the gate panel.
4. Adjust the actuator arm with the roller parallel to the floor and tighten the set screw and bolt.
5. Latch the gate by rotating the actuator arm, closing the gate and releasing the actuator. The gate
must now be locked.
6. Clamp the actuating cam to the platform railing or other suitable member so that the actuator arm is
rotated down when the platform is at the lower level.
Verify operation to assure locking when the platform is moved away from this level, and that
the lock releases when the platform is returned.
7. Verify operation of the upper level gate.
NOTE: The cam must rotate the actuator arm in the upward direction at the upper level, and
rotate down on the lower level.
8. When the cam location has been verified, weld it to the lift platform.
NOTE: With the G.A.L. interlock you may need to extend the roller arm out to the strike. You
may not be able to extend the strike out because of floor clearance. The only option is to extend
the roller mount out to meet the strike. This can be done with a piece of ½” x 1” bar cut and
drilled for the length needed.
G.A.L. Wiring information
1. The contact block is wired in series between the terminals specified on the electrical schematic.
CAUTION!!! ALL CONNECTIONS MUST BE MADE BY A QUALIFIED
