  • Page 11: Safety Requirements

    • A minimum of three years experience installing similar equipment. • Proof of attending a HySecurity Technical Training seminar within the past three years. • Significant manufacturer endorsements of technical aptitude in gate operator installation and operation. Underwriter Laboratories (UL) and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) are responsible for current safety standards and regulations regarding gate operators and automated gates.

  • Page 12: Safety Standards - Owner/User Responsibility

    Important Safety Instructions • Before attaching the operator’s arm, swing the gate in both directions. Make sure it is level and moves freely. A gate that swings easily reduces strain on operator components. Gravity should play no part in the opening or closing of the gate.

  • Page 13: Hazardous Materials And Proper Disposal

    • Observe the polarity between the batteries and charging circuit. • Never mix battery sizes, types, or brands. HySecurity strongly recommends that only sealed AGM style batteries be used. • Exercise care in handling batteries. Be aware that the metal found in rings, bracelets, and keys can conduct electricity, short the batteries, and cause potential injury.

It’s usage class is determined by the area that the vehicular gate services. Four different vehicular usage classes are defined by UL 325: Class I Class I: Intended for use in a location of one to four single family dwellings or a...

  • Page 16: Choosing Secondary Entrapment Protection

    E device is permitted as a means of secondary entrapment protection by UL 325 in Class IV applications, but it is not recommended by HySecurity because a buzzer warns, but cannot protect against possible entrapment. HySecurity highly recommends, even for Class IV use, that secondary entrapment protection (edge or photo-eye sensor) devices be installed to detect possible entrapment.

The left-hand linkage arm can be used on a right-hand operator (and vice versa) by flipping the arm. This causes the gate attachment point to be approximately 2-inches higher which means the gate bracket needs to be positioned accordingly.

    NOTE For sites where incident of gate strikes are high, HySecurity recommends setting the elbow with a slight offset at the full close position. Use the supplied set screw to prevent the arm from lock- ing. The intent of the offset is that, upon gate strike, the elbow will bend and the taper clamp will slip, minimizing damage to the gearbox and operator.
