IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury or death: READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS. Installation should be performed by a professional installer. Should electricity be required, use a certified electrician only. Any device that requires 120 Volts AC should be U.L. approved. Install control devices such as keypads far enough away (5 feet or further) from any moving parts of the operator and gate to prevent possible injury.
APPLICATIONS The Toona Swing Gate Operator is designed to handle a swing gate up to 14 feet (T5-ETL) and 20 feet (T7-ETL) in total length. Apollo Operators are available only through qualified dealers with an outstanding reputation in the fence and gate industry. These dealers will be able to recommend the proper equipment for particular applications. Apollo Operators are 12 Volt DC (Direct Current) powered.
PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKLIST The following checklist should be used before beginning installation: Verify that the proper operator has been selected for this application. Determine the general location of the operator, access controls, and solar panel (if used). 1. Is there a suitable location for the operator? 2.Can the solar panel (if used) be mounted in an unobstructed area facing south? 3.

BATTERY CONNECTIONS If a electrical battery charger will be used, a 12 volt sealed lead acid battery rated for 33 ampere hour or more is recommended for the Toona 5 & 7. A 1.5 amp automatic battery charger is sufficient for most applications The battery may also be recharged with a solar panel. If solar charging is a requirement refer to page 4 or contact our customer service department at 800 226-0178 to help determine the solar panel size needed.

PROGRAMMING CURRENT SENSING The 835/836 control boards incorporate a safety feature that will put the operator into a hard shutdown mode if the control board detects a current sense two consecutive times during a cycle. This hard shutdown condition may be reset by shorting the FIREBOX or UL inputs on the left side of the control board to ground. This condition may also be reset by pressing the HARD SHUTDOWN RESET button located toward the upper right hand corner of the control board.

Push Buttons OPERATE When depressed, activates the gate. Used for initial installation and testing.
Program Switches OFF ON 1 TIMER TO CLOSE Gate does not automatically close. Gate automatically closes. 2 TIMER TO CLOSE OPT. Gate automatically closes from any position after opening. Gate automatically closes only when completely open (open limit engaged). 3 SLAVE DISABLE Enables slave side (dual gate use). Disables slave side.
