INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
9. Install the interlocks according to the Interlock Installation instructions in the next
section.
10. Verify that the gate is operating properly. Do this by opening and closing the gate.
It should move easily and smoothly and the interlock should function without
binding or rubbing.
11. After determining proper operation, weld additional support bracing in place and
complete the anchoring of the gate posts.
NOTE: Make sure that the supports do no interfere with any portion of the lift
platform, wheel blocks, or means of lifting.
12. If using solenoid interlocks, attach the gate status switch(s) to the switch mounting
plate (see Figure 8). Assure that the magnet latch holds the panel in position until
the interlock engages. Verify that the switch lever arm contacts the gate panel to
assure the closure of the switch contacts.
13. Install the enclosure panels, if required (see Enclosure Installation Instructions).
14. If not already installed, affix the warning labels to the mounting plate and attach the
mounting plate to the gate panel in the most visible location using the wraps or
tack welding (see Label Placement section for instructions).
15. Touch up the paint as necessary.
CAUTION !
Make sure that the gate panels are secured in the closed
position. Failure to do so could result in the gate panel opening
unexpectedly, causing equipment damage or personal injury.
