III. After Installation

  1.  Attach the warning signs (included) to each side 

of the gate to alert the public of automatic gate 
operation. It is your responsibility to post warning 
signs on both sides of your gate. If any of these 
signs or warning decals becomes damaged,  
illegible, or missing, replace them immediately.  
Contact GTO for free replacements.

  2.  The gate is automatic and could move at any time, 

posing serious risk of entrapment. No one should be 
in contact with the gate when it is  
moving or stationary.

  3.  Do not attempt to drive into the gate area while 

the gate is moving; wait until the gate comes to a 
complete stop. 

  4.  Do not attempt to “beat the gate” (drive through) 

while the gate is closing. This is extremely 
dangerous.

  5.  Do not allow children or pets near your gate. Never 

let children operate or play with gate controls. 
Keep the remote control away from children and 
unauthorized users; store controls where children 
and unauthorized users do not have access to them.

  6.  KEEP GATE AND GATE OPENER PROPERLY 

MAINTAINED. Always turn power to opener OFF 
before performing any maintenance. Regularly 
grease the gate hinges. Apply silicone spray to a 
soft, dry cloth and clean the push-pull tube at least 
once a month.

 
 

  7.  To operate this equipment safely, YOU must know 

how to disconnect the operator for manual gate 
operation (see page iii). If you have read the 
instructions and still do not understand how to 
disconnect the operator, contact the GTO Service 
Department.

 
  8.  Disconnect the operator ONLY when the power is 

TURNED OFF and the gate is NOT moving.

 
  9.  Make arrangements with local fire and law  

enforcement for emergency access.

 
  10.  Distribute and discuss copies of the  

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION  
section of this manual with all persons  
authorized to use your gate.

 
  11.  IMPORTANT: Save these safety instructions. Make 

sure everyone who is using or will be around the 
gate and gate operator are aware of the dangers 
associated with automated gates. In the event 
you sell the property with the gate operator or sell 
the gate operator, provide a copy of these safety 
instructions to the new owner.  
 
Should you lose this manual, a copy can be obtained 
by downloading one from the Mighty Mule web site 
(www.mightymule.com), by contacting GTO Access 
Systems, LLC at 3121 Hartsfield Road, Tallahassee, 
Florida 32303 or by calling 1-800-543-4283 and 
requesting a duplicate copy. One will be provided to 
you free of charge.
