1601 BREAK-AWAY OCTAGON ARM INSTALLATION KIT
This kit is designed for a 1601 barrier gate operator WITHOUT convenience open ONLY. It CANNOT be used with a 1602 or 1603
operators. The kit provides a break-away bracket assembly for a octagon arm with OR without reverse/LED edge ONLY. When the
arm is raised, LEDs turn GREEN, and turns RED when lowered and remains RED in the down position. Arm will reverse if lowering
and a obstruction is encountered. If the arm is struck and breaks away (pivots in ONE DIRECTION ONLY, see below), gate operator
will automatically shut down. The arm manually snaps back into the release rollers to function normally again.
Break-Away Arm Direction Options
Arm will only pivot in ONE DIRECTION depending on which way the break-away arm bracket is installed. Choose the desired break-away
direction and install break-away arm bracket accordingly (note position of arm pivot bolt and release rollers).
