IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

!WARNING! Not Following these instructions may cause severe injury or death.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (Continued)

6.Controls intended for user activation must be located at least six feet (6’) away from any moving part of the gate and where the user is prevented from reaching over, under, around or through the gate to operate the controls.

Exception: Emergency access controls only accessible by authorized personnel (i.g. fire, police, EMS) may be placed at any location in the line-of-sight of the gate.

7.The Stop and/or Reset button must be located in the line-of-sight of the gate. Activation of the reset control shall not cause the operator to start.

8.A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the gate where easily visible.

9.For gate operators using non-contact sensors (Photo Beams or like) in accordance with section 31.1.1 of the UL standard:

a.See instructions on the placement of non-contact sensors for each type of application (refer to page 10).

b.Care shall be exercised to reduce the risk of nuisance tripping, such as when a vehicle, trips the sensor while the gate is still moving, and

c.One or more non-contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as the perimeter reachable by a moving gate or barrier (refer to page 10).

d.Use only Omron E3K-R10K4 photoelectric eye to comply with UL 325

10.For a gate operator utilizing a contact sensor (Edge sensor or like) in accordance with section 31.1.1 of the UL 325 standard:

a.One or more contact sensors shall be located where the risk of entrapment or obstruction exists, such as a the leading edge, trailing edge, and post mounted both inside and outside of a vehicular horizontal slide gate (refer to page 11).

b.One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom of a vehicular vertical lift gate.

c.One or more contact sensors shall be located at the pinch point of a vehicular vertical pivot gate.

d.A hardwired contact sensor shall be located and its wiring arranged so that the communication between the sensor and the gate operator is not subject to mechanical damage.

e.A wireless contact sensor such as one that transmits radio frequency (RF) signals to the gate operator for entrapment protection functions shall be located where the transmission of the signals are not obstructed or impeded by building structures, natural landscaping or similar obstructions. A wireless contact sensor shall function under the intended end-use conditions.

f.One or more contact sensors shall be located on the inside and outside leading edge of a swing gate. Additionally, if the bottom edge of a swing gate is grater than 6 inches (152 mm) above the ground at any point in its arc of travel, one or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom.

g.One or more contact sensors shall be located at the bottom edge of a vertical barrier (arm).

h.Only Use Miller Edge Model MGR20 or MGS20 edge sensor to comply with UL325.
