Safety Instructions for the GTO/PRO 2000
and GTO/PRO 2200 Gate Operators
SAFETY IS EVERYONE'S BUSINESS
Automatic gate operators provide convenience and security to their users. However, because these machines can produce
high levels of force, it is important that all gate operator system designers, installers and end users be aware of the potential
hazards associated with improperly designed, installed or maintained systems. Keep in mind that the gate operator is only
one component of the total gate operating system–each component must work in unison to provide the end user with
convenience, security and safety.
The following information contains various safety precautions and warnings for the system designer, installer and end user.
Although the warnings are not completely exhaustive in nature (due to the many and varied possible applications), they do
provide an overview of the importance of safe design, installation and use. Take the time to carefully read and follow these
precautions and other information provided to help assure a safe system design, installation and use.
NOTE: GTO Automatic Gate Operators are intended to be part of a total gate operating system. It is the responsibility of
the purchaser, designer and installer to insure that the total system is safe for its intended use. The manufacturer is not
responsible for accidents arising from unsafe installations or improper use. Safety is your responsibility!
SPECIAL NOTES FOR THE SYSTEM DESIGNER
1. Familiarize yourself with the complete safety instructions, precautions and warnings. The end user is relying on your
design to provide a safe, hazard-free installation and system use.
2. When designing a system which will be entered from a highway or main thoroughfare, make sure the system is placed
far enough away from the road to eliminate traffic backup. Distance from the road, size of the gate, usage levels and
gate cycle/speed must be taken into consideration to eliminate potential traffic hazard.
3. This gate is not for pedestrian use. If pedestrian traffic is expected, install a walk-through gate for this purpose.
