IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR THE SYSTEM DESIGNER

WARNING: To reduce the risk of injury or death:

1.READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2. This operator is intended for use only on vehicular gates. Pedestrians must be supplied with a separate walk- through gate (see Entrapment Protection on page 6).

3.When designing a system that will be entered from a highway or main thoroughfare, make sure the system is placed far enough from the road to prevent traffic congestion.

FOR THE INSTALLER

WARNING-To reduce the risk of injury or death:

I. Before Installation

1.READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.

2.Verify this operator is proper for the type and size of gate, and its frequency of use.

3.Make sure the gate has been properly installed and slides freely in both directions. Repair or replace all worn or damaged gate hardware prior to installation. A freely moving gate will require less force to operate and will enhance the performance of the operator and safety devices used with the system.

4.All openings of a horizontal slide gate must be guarded or screened to prevent a 21/4 inch diameter sphere from passing through openings anywhere in the gate. This screen (or guard) must also be installed over the portion of adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open position (see page 6).

5. Review the operation of the system and become familiar with its safety features. Understand how to disconnect the operator chain with the quick release pins for manual operation of the gate (see page 1).

6.This gate operator is intended for vehicular gates ONLY. A separate entrance or gate must be installed for pedestrian use (see page 6). NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE PATH OF A MOVING GATE.

II.During Installation

1.Install the gate operator on the inside of the property and fence line. DO NOT install an operator on the outside of the gate where the public has access to it.

2. Be careful with moving parts and avoid close proximity to areas where fingers or hands could be pinched.

3. Determine the best obstruction sensing setting for this installation. The gate MUST stop and reverse on contact with an obstruction or when an object activates the non-contact sensors. After adjusting the force or the limit of travel, retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator properly increases the risk of injury or death.

4. Additional safety equipment such as roller guards and safety edges (or photoelectric sensors) MUST be installed to prevent bodily injury (see page 6).

5. Mount access controls away from the gate (minimum distance is 10 feet). The user must have full view of the gate but be unable to touch it while operating the controls.

SL-1000, SL-2000 specifications

The GTO SL-2000 and SL-1000 are advanced gate operators designed for efficient and reliable automation of heavy-duty swing gates. These models are renowned for their robust construction and innovative technologies that enhance both performance and security.

The SL-2000 is particularly suited for large, dual-swing gates weighing up to 2,000 pounds, making it a perfect choice for commercial and industrial settings. In comparison, the SL-1000 is designed for lighter gates that weigh up to 1,000 pounds, suitable for residential and light commercial applications. Both models are engineered to provide smooth, quiet operation, which is vital for residential areas where noise reduction is essential.

One of the standout features of both the SL-2000 and SL-1000 is their advanced DC motor technology. This allows for variable speed operation, providing a slower, more controlled movement during the opening and closing cycles. Such functionality not only enhances safety but also minimizes wear and tear on the gate mechanism, ensuring longevity.

Both models are equipped with obstacle detection technology that halts the gate's movement if an obstruction is encountered. This safety feature helps prevent accidents and damage, a critical aspect in environments where individuals and vehicles are present.

In terms of installation, the GTO SL series is designed for ease of use, featuring a straightforward setup process with clear instructions and minimal tools required. Additionally, the SL-2000 and SL-1000 include a built-in rechargeable battery backup, ensuring that the gate operates even during power outages.

Security is a top priority with both gate operators. They incorporate rolling code technology in their remote controls, which changes the access code with each activation, significantly reducing the risk of unauthorized access. Furthermore, the SL series supports multiple remote controls, allowing for convenient access for users while maintaining security.

Durability is another hallmark of the GTO SL-2000 and SL-1000. Both operators are built with weather-resistant materials, ensuring they can withstand various environmental conditions. This resilience makes them a solid investment for long-term use.

In conclusion, the GTO SL-2000 and SL-1000 are state-of-the-art gate operators that combine cutting-edge technology with superior safety features, making them a reliable choice for enhancing the automation of swing gates in diverse applications. Their ease of installation, robust construction, and advanced functionalities are significant advantages for property owners seeking secure and efficient access solutions.
