Important Safety Information
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 Nortek Security and Control 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" 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 SYSTEMS MAINTAINED. Always turn power
to operator OFF before performing any maintenance. See
page 28 for maintenance procedures.
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
Mighty Mule 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.
