IMPORTANT!
• The gate operator installation is NOT a “do-it-yourself”
project. Contract a qualified gate operator installation
company to ensure a safe and reliable installation.
• It is the responsibility of the property owner to ensure
the installer is qualified to carry out the installation in a
safe and professional manner.
• Consult local government agencies for latest rules and
regulations to satisfy licensing, codes or regulations for
automated gate system design and installation.
SAFETY, WARNINGS, AND CAUTIONS
A gate operator is only a component in a gate system. The
other parts of the gate system can include:
• the gate
• the external entrapment sensors
• access controls
• vehicle detectors
To have a gate system that provides safety, security, and
reliable operation it is essential these components operate
together as a system. It is the responsibility of the system
designer and/or installer to ensure any safety or operational
issues have been addressed.
DANGER!
TO REDUCE THE RISK OF SEVERE INJURY, DEATH,
OR PROPERTY DAMAGE READ AND FOLLOW ALL
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!
• Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep
the remote control away from children.
• Always keep people and objects away from the gate. No
one should cross the path of the moving gate.
• Test the gate operator monthly. Gate must reverse on
contact with a rigid object or stop 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 can increase the risk
of injury or death.
• Use the emergency release only when gate is not moving.
• Keep gates properly maintained. Read user’s manual. Have
a qualified service person make repairs to gate hardware.
• The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use
separate entrance.
The UL325 standard covers gate operators. Within this safety standard several Usage Classes are described that
define different types of installations where gate operators can be applied. Some operators are restricted in their
usage application. All Nice USA operators are approved for use in all four UL325 Usage Classes. Appropriate
Usage Classes are shown in the Specifications.
