Automatic gate operators provide convenience and
security to 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 a
component part of a total gate operating system.
The following information contains various safety
precautions and warnings for the system designer,
installer and end user. These instructions provide an
overview of the importance of safe design, installation,
and use.
Warnings are identied with the ▲ symbol. This symbol
will identify some of the conditions that can result in
serious injury or death. Take time to carefully read
and follow these precautions and other important
information provided to help ensure safe system
design, installation and use.
▲ WARNING: Gate operators are only one part of a
total gate operating system. It is the responsibility of
purchaser, designer, and installer to ensure that the
total system is safe for its intended use. All secondary
entrapment safety devices must be RECOGNIZED
by UL to ensure the safety of the complete operating
system.
IMPORTANT!
FOR SWING GATE OPERATING SYSTEMS,
SAFETY IS EVERYONE’S BUSINESS.
