IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING – To reduce the risk of severe injury or death: 1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. 2. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from children. 3. Always keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE. 4. Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or 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. 5. Use the manual release only when the gate is not moving. 6. KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the owner’s manual. Have a qualified service person make repairs to gate hardware. 7. The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use separate entrance. 8. Every gate operator installation MUST have secondary protection devices against entrapment, such as edge sensors and photo beams more in particularly in places where the risk of entrapment is more likely to occur. 9. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS. IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Install the gate operator only when: a) The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate and the usage Class of the gate (refer to page 5), b) All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of the gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.22 m) above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inch (57.2 mm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the gate, and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position, c) ALL EXPOSED PINCH POINTS ARE ELIMINATED OR GUARDED, AND d) GUARDING IS SUPPLIED FOR EXPOSED ROLLERS. 2. The operator is intended for installation only on gates used for vehicles. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will not come in contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate. 3. The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the gate and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment. Swinging gates shall not open into public access areas. 4. The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the installation of the gate operator. Do not over-tighten the operator clutch or pressure relief valve to compensate for a damaged gate. 5. The gate operator controls must be placed so that the user has full view of the gate area when the gate is moving AND AWAY FROM THE GATE PATH PERIMETER. 6. Controls intended for user activation must be located at least six feet (6’) away from any moving part of the gate and where the user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls shall have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use. 2 TECHNICAL SUPPORT 1 800 908 0884 IMPORTANT IMPORTANT SAFETY SAFETY INFORMATION INFORMATION WARNING - Not following these instructions may cause severe injury or death to persons. IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Continued 7. The Stop and/or Reset button must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to start. 8. All warning signs and placards must be installed where visible in the area of the gate. A minimum of two placards shall be installed. A placard is to be installed in the area of each side of the gate and be visible to persons located on the side of the gate on which the placard is installed. 9. For gate operators utilizing a non-contact sensor (Photo beam or like) in accordance with section 31.1.1 of the UL325 standard: a) See instructions on the placement of non-contact sensors for each Type of application (refer to page 6), b) Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle, trips the sensor while the gate is still moving, and c) One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier (refer to page 6). d) Use only Omron E3K-R10K4 photoelectric eye to comply with UL325 e) One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier. 10. For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor (Edge sensor or like) in accordance with section 31.1.1 of the UL325 standard: a) One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as at the leading edge, trailing edge, and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate (refer to page 7). b) One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vehicular vertical lift gate. c) One or more contact sensors shall be located at the pinch point of a vehicular vertical pivot gate. d) A hardwired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so that the communication between the sensor and the gate operator is not subjected to mechanical damage. e) A wireless contact sensor such as one that transmits radio frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator for entrapment protection functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures, natural landscaping or similar obstruction. A wireless contact sensor shall function under the intended end-use conditions. f) One or more contact sensors shall be located on the inside and outside leading edge of a swing gate. Additionally, if the bottom edge of a swing gate is greater than 6 inches (152 mm) above the ground at any point in its arc of travel, one or more contact sensors shall be located on the bottom edge (refer to page 7). g) One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vertical barrier (arm). h) Use only Miller Edge Model MGR20 or MGS20 edge sensor to comply with UL325 TECHNICAL SUPPORT 1 800 908 0884 3 IMPORTANT IMPORTANT SAFETY SAFETY INFORMATION INFORMATION WARNING - Not following these instructions may cause severe injury or death to persons.

The following statements are provided as a guide but different requirements may be required by the vehicular loop detector manufacturer. Guidelines for Vehicular Loop Detector Installation 1. Prevent sharp corners in the geometry of the loop sensor. 2. Install the appropriate number of turns for your loop geometry based on the loop perimeter. Use Table C (below) as a guide. 3. Use XLP (cross-linked-polyethylene) type of wire. This wire reduces the effects of moisture and other environmental events in altering the functionality of the vehicular loop detector. 4. Twist the lead wire at least 6 turns per foot. 5. Use BACKER-ROD to minimize damage to the loop detector wire prior to using the sealant. 6. Place the loop detector wire and adjust the sensitivity of the vehicular loop detector unit in a way to minimize the effects of the gate over the loop detector wire. IMPORTANT – Some of the following parameters may affect the proper functionality of the vehicular loop detector (consult the installation manual and the manufacturer of the vehicular loop detector). • Gate size, • Number of turns in the loop sensor wire; • Distance from the loop sensor wire to the gate either at the open or close position.
