  • Page 2 FOR SLIDE GATE OPERATING SYSTEMS SAFETY IS EVERYONE’S BUSINESS Automatic gate operators provide convenience and security to users. However, because these machines can produce high levels of force, it is important that all gate operator system designers, installers, and end users be aware of the potential hazards associated with improperly designed, installed, or maintained systems.
  • Page 3 MANUFACTURED AFTER JANUARY 11, 2016: All gate operators manufactured after January 11,2016 must have a monitored input for EACH direction. In order to satisfy this requirement, all PowerMaster gate operators with the universal board will have one monitored input for each direction.
