1. This gate operator is only intended for use on gates
intended for vehicular access and is not intended for
pedestrian gate applications. Pedestrians must use a
separate entrance.
2. The GHOST CONTROLS
®
Automatic Gate
Opener can be installed on a pull-to-open application
with the items included in the kit. For push-to-open
applications you will need to purchase two (2) Push-
To-Open (item AXPO) bracket kits (required) from
your local retailer. If they do not have the bracket kit
then please visit https://www.ghostcontrols.com/shop
or contact GHOST CONTROLS
®
Technical Support
(850-898-1411) to purchase.
3. This GHOST CONTROLS
®
Automatic Gate
Opener features a patent-pending SafeForce
®
power
limiting feature that doesn’t require additional Photo
Eyes for entrapment protection in most applications
of a properly installed gate. During installation, you
may instead choose to use external monitored safety
devices such as non-contact photo eyes (item AXPE
sold separately) and will need to enable this setting on
the main system controller during setup.
. The operator can be used on a variety of gate types,
but should not be used on solid or wood panel gates.
Solid panel gates have a higher likelihood to experi-
ence problems due to their higher resistance to wind
and may result in faulty operation of the automatic
gate operator.
5. All GHOST CONTROLS
®
Automatic Gate
Operators include automatic reversing safety
features that will make the gates stop and reverse
direction within 2 seconds of encountering an
obstruction. There is a manual setting on the main
gate operator control board labeled Force Setting
that adjusts the sensitivity of this feature.
6. This GHOST CONTROLS
®
Automatic Gate
Operator can be enhanced with additional GHOST
CONTROLS
®
accessories such as our remote
transmitters, keypads, and all other accessories,
sold separately. (Accessories see page 62). The
GHOST CONTROLS
®
technical support team
is happy to assist in verifying compatibility of any
products not oered by GHOST CONTROLS
