IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Because automatic gate openers produce high levels of force, consumers need to know the potential hazards associated with
improperly designed, installed, and maintained automated gate opener systems. Keep in mind that the gate opener is just
one component of the total gate operating system. Each component must work in unison to provide the consumer with
convenience, security, and safety.
This manual contains various safety precautions and warnings for the consumer. Because there are many possible
applications of the gate opener, the safety precautions and warnings contained in this manual cannot be completely exhaustive
in nature. They do, however, provide an overview of the safe design, installation, and use of this product. CAREFULLY
READ AND FOLLOW ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS, WARNINGS, AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS TO
ENSURE THE SAFE SYSTEM DESIGN, INSTALLATION, AND USE OF THIS PRODUCT.
Precautions and warnings in this manual are identified with this warning symbol. The symbol identifies conditions
that can result in damage to the opener or its components, serious injury, or death.
Because GTO/PRO automatic gate openers are
only part of the total gate operating system, it is the responsibility of
the consumer to ensure that the total system is safe for its intended use.
NOTE: Substitute a Pin Lock for the clevis pin on the front
mount of each gate opener to prevent unauthorized removal of
the opener from the gate (see Accessory Catalog).
Disconnecting the operator
1. Turn operator power switch OFF.
2. Remove hairpin clip, clevis pin, and bushing
from the front mounting point.
3. Remove the operator from the mount.
The gate can be opened and closed manually
when the operator is disconnected.
To Manually Open and Close the
Gate, Follow the Procedure Below:
CAUTION: The gate will move freely and uncontrolled when the gate operator is
removed from the gate. ONLY disconnect the operator when the operator power
switch is OFF and the gate is NOT moving.
Clevis Pin
Hairpin Clip
Gate Bracket
Front or Rear Mount
Bushing
CAUTION: Because the GTO/PRO gate operator is
battery powered, disconnect the
operator ONLY when the
power switch on the
operator is turned OFF. Unplugging
the transformer does not turn power to the
operator OFF.
IMPORTANT:
NEVER allow operator arm to hang by
the front mount - it will break from the arm weight.
