BASIC OPERATIONAL GUIDE
•If the gate is fully closed an Open Button, Alternate, Radio or Free Exit
input will cause the gate to begin moving in the open direction.
•If the gate is fully open a Close Button, Alternate, or Radio input will
cause the gate to begin moving in the close direction.
•If the gate is moving in a Close direction a Close Non-Contact Sensor,
Close Contact Sensor input or a Close Overload activation will cause
the gate to stop, pause and reverse for approximately 2 inches in the
Open direction.
•If the gate is moving in a Close direction an Open Button, Radio,
Reversing, or Free Exit Loop input will cause the gate to stop, pause,
reverse and run in the Open direction.
•If the gate is moving in a Close direction a Stop Button or Alternate
input will cause the gate to stop. A subsequent Alternate input will
cause the gate to begin moving in the Open direction.
E: END USER INSTRUCTIONS GATE OPENER OPERATION & SAFETY GUIDE
MANUAL OPERATION - Standard Lock Mechanism (lock activates only when the gate reaches the fully closed position). The gate can be
moved open or close in case of power failure or other need to move the gate manually without disconnecting the operator chain. Remove power
from the unit (if not already off) and firmly grasp the leading edge of the gate. Push or pull the gate in the direction desired. The amount of force
required to move the gate will depend on the gate weight and the inherent friction of the overall system. Manual operation is possible without
removing power when the gate is in any position except the closed position, but the lock will engage at the closed position and caution must be
exercised as control inputs will be active and able to energize the operator.
MANUAL OPERATION - Fail Secure Lock Mechanism (-S suffix), the lock is activated whenever the gate is
not moving. The gate can be moved open or close in case of power failure or other need to move the gate
manually without disconnecting the operator chain. Take off the operator cover by first removing any lock
attached to the lock tab on the operator front then lift the cover over the tab and directly overhead off the
unit. Remove power from the unit by turning the Main Power Switch on the 4 x 4 handy box (under
the control box) to the OFF position or turn off power at the main circuit breaker box feed. Move
the Manual Operation Actuator Lever to the RELEASE (UN-SECURE) position (see Figure
26) by pulling the lever up slightly to clear the tab and moving it toward the gate. Ensure
the lever is reseated on the tab in the RELEASE (UN-SECURE) position. Firmly
grasp the leading edge of the gate. Push or pull the gate in the direction desired.
The amount of force required to move the gate will depend on the gate
weight and the inherent friction of the overall system. Manual operation
is to be attempted only when the operator is not moving the gate
under power.
To place the unit back into RUN (SECURE) operation
reverse the steps above. Before replacing the cover
ensure the Manual Operation Actuator Lever is reseated
on the tab in the RUN (SECURE) position and the
Main Power Switch is moved to the ON position.
Restore power at the main circuit breaker box feed (if
applicable).

•If the gate is moving in an Open direction an Open Non-Contact
Sensor, Open Contact Sensor input or an Open Overload activation
will cause the gate to stop, pause and reverse for approximately 2
inches in the Open direction.
•If the gate is moving in an Open direction a Stop or Alternate input
will cause the gate to stop. A subsequent Alternate input will cause
the gate to begin moving in the Close direction.
•Two sequential activations of the Overload detector (Open or Close
direction) before the gate reaches a limit will cause the operator to go
into the alarm mode. To reset the operator remove the obstruction
and either use constant pressure on a control button connected to the
OPEN or CLOSE input and move the gate to a fully open or closed
position or turn off and restore the power to the operator.
