If your gate opens into the property (Pull-to-Open)
the DIP Switch is set to OFF (factory). If your gate

DIP Switch must be set to the ON position.
NOTE: if you have a Push-to-Open gate
application you will need a Push-to-Open Gate
Bracket [FM148](see Push-to-Open Instructions
on page 31).

This DIP selects the mode of operation of the "AUX

The OFF (factory setting) position is selected if you are using an Automatic Gate Lock with your
Mighty Mule Opener.

IMPORTANT: Never connect the transformer and a solar panel to the opener control board at the same time. It
will damage the control board.
If you are using the transformer included with the Mighty Mule Gate Opener to charge the opener battery, skip
this section and go to "CONTROL BOARD SETTINGS" below.
