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.

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. • The entrance is for vehicles ONLY. Pedestrians MUST use separate entrance. • Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or reverse when an object activates the noncontact sensors.
