GSLG-A OPERATOR INSTALLATION GUIDE
GATE OPERATOR
CLASSIFICATIONS
All gate operators can be divided into one of four different
classifi cations, depending on their design and usage.
Class I: Residential
A vehicle gate operator (or system) intended for use in a
home of one to four single-family dwellings, or a garage or
parking area associated therewith.
Class II: Commercial or General Public Access
A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in
a commercial location or building such as a multi-family
housing unit (fi ve or more single-family units), hotel, garage,
retail store, or other building servicing the general public.
Class III: Industrial or Limited Access
A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in
an industrial location or building such as a factory or load-
ing dock area or other locations not intended to service
the general public.
Class IV: Restricted Access
A vehicular gate operator (or system) intended for use in
a guarded industrial location or building such as an airport
security area or other restricted access locations not ser-
vicing the general public, in which unauthorized access is
prevented via supervision by security personnel.
IMPORTANT!!
Before installing the gate operator, make sure the gate's slide
is free and level throughout the entire opening distance. If
the gate does not seem to operate properly, it may affect the
operator performance or greatly shorten the life of the unit.
The gate should be designed so that airfl ow through the fabric
is ample to prevent wind resistance and drag.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Read the following before beginning to install LINEAR slide
gate operators:
1. Read the yellow "Safety Instructions" brochure enclosed
with the packet of information. If you do not have one,
please call LINEAR at 1-800-333-1717 to request one.
Read and follow all instructions.
2. All electrical connections to the power supply must be
made by a licensed electrician and must observe all
national and local electrical codes.
3. A separate power-disconnect switch should be located
near the operator so that primary power can be turned
off when necessary.
4. A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be in-
stalled, one on each side of the gate where easily vis-
ible.
5. Never reach between, through or around the fence to
operate the gate.
6. You must install all required safety equipment.
