II. During Installation
1. Install the gate operator on the inside of the property and fence line. DO NOT install an operator on the outside of the gate
where the public has access to it.
2. Be careful with moving parts and avoid close proximity to areas where ngers or hands could be pinched.
3. Devices such as contact sensors (sensing
edges) and non contact sensors (photo beams) provide additional protection against vehicular damage.
4. If push buttons or key switches are installed, they should be within sight of the gate, located at least 10 feet from any moving
part of the gate (see diagram below). Never install any control device where a user will be tempted to reach through the
gate to activate the gate operator.
5. Do not activate your gate operator unless you can see it and can determine that its area of travel is clear of people, pets, or
other obstructions. Watch the gate through its entire movement.
6. Secure outdoor or easily accessed gate operator controls in order to prohibit unauthorized use of the gate.
