PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKLIST

The following check list should be used before beginning installation:

Verify that the proper operator has been selected for this application.

Verify proper installation and operation of the gate.

1.Are the hinges servicable?

2.Does the gate swing free and level?

3.Will the gate require a locking device?

4.Is the hinge and stop posts sturdy enough to handle the gate & operator?

5.Does the gate meet U.L. construction?

Determine the general location of the operator, attachment points, 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 (in the northern hemisphere)?

3.Will additional solar panel cable be required?

4.Is electricity available (if required)?

Consider safety and access options. Recommend if needed.

1.Will there be children or animals in the area?

2.Are safety loops, edge switches, or photo beam detectors required?

3.How can the gate be opened in emergencies?

4.How will visitors enter and exit?

5.Will vehicles (and trailers) have sufficient room off roadway to operate any control devices such as keypads?

IMPORTANT

Never weld parts to the gate or posts when the operator circuit board is powered. Doing so may damage the board beyond re- pair.
