IMPORTANT - READ CAREFULLY BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION
WARNING—To reduce the risk of injury or death:
•Read this installation manual completely prior to installation.
•Installation should be performed by a professional installer.
•Required welding should be performed by a qualified welder.
•Should electricity be required, use a certified electrician only.
•Any device that requires 120 Volts AC should be U.L. approved.
•Review with the owner all safety concerns including:
⇒Do not operate the gate unless area around gate is in full view.
⇒Do not allow children or adults to “ride” on gate during operation.
⇒Do not allow children to play in the gate area.
⇒Periodically test the obstruction sensitivity to assure safe and
proper operation. **Do not test sensitivity by standing between the
gate and the hinge or stop post.
⇒Keep the remote control away from children.
⇒The “CAUTION AUTOMATIC GATE” sign should be clearly visible
from both sides of the gate.
⇒Always insure that the gate has closed securely before leaving
area.
⇒Arrange with local fire and law enforcement for emergency access.
⇒Always keep people and objects away from the gate. No person
should cross the path of the moving gate.
•Recommend safety devices such as loop detectors, edge switches, and
beam detectors when applicable.
•Install control devices such as keypads far enough away (5 feet or further)
from any moving parts of the operator and gate to prevent possible injury.
•Always disconnect the battery or power source when making adjustments
or repairs to any part of the gate or operator.
•All rollers should be covered to prevent injury.
Test the gate operator monthly. The gate must reverse on contact with a rigid
object or stop when an object activates the non contact sensors. After adjust-
ing the force or limit of travel, retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and
retest the gate operator properly can increase the risk of injury or death.
IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

APPLICATIONS
The Apollo Model 7100 Slide Gate Operator is designed to handle a slide gate up
to 27 feet in total length (accomodates a 25 foot drive) and 400 pounds. A
professional fence or gate dealer is recommended to assure proper installation.
Apollo Gate Operators are available only through qualified dealers with an
outstanding reputation in the fence and gate industry. These dealers will be able to
recommend the proper equipment for particular applications. Apollo Gate
Operators are 12 Volt DC (Direct Current) powered. A 12 Volt marine type battery
is recommended. There are several advantages with 12 Volt DC systems:
•Battery powered operators provide up to 200 operations in the event of
power outages.
•The battery may be recharged with a trickle charger or by solar energy
(eliminating the need for costly trenching to remote entrances).
If a trickle charger is used and a standard electrical outlet is not readily available, a
licensed electrician will be required for proper electrical hook up.
The following table should be used as a guide for capacity of operation of operators
only, additional options may reduce the the daily usage. Please note that the charge
capability of solar panels will vary with different geographical locations.

PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKLIST
The following checklist should be used before beginning installation:
♦Verify that the proper operator has been selected for this application.
♦Verify proper installation and operation of the gate.
1. Are all rollers covered with a protective housing?
2. Are the rollers servicable?
3. Does the gate roll free and level?
4. Will the gate require a locking device?
5. Are the main posts sturdy enough to handle the gate & operator?
♦Determine the general location of the operator, chian brackets, and solar
panel (if used).
1. Is there a suitable location for the operator?
2.Can the solar panel (if used) be mounted in an unobstructed area facing
south?
3. Will additional solar panel cable be required?
4. Is electricity available (if required)?
♦Consider safety and access options. Recommend if needed.
1. Will there be chidren or animals in the area?
2. Are safety loops, edge switches, or photo beam detectors required?
3. How can the gate be opened in emergencies?
4. How will visitors enter and exit?
5. Will vehicles (and trailers) have sufficient room off roadway to operate any
control devices such as keypads?

The required depth of the
pad will vary from site to
site. Normally, the pad
should be at least 4” above
the surface and 18” below
(Figure A & B).
Fig. A Fig. B
In harder soil or rock, pilings may be preferred (Figure C).
Conduit requirements should be considered in the planning stage. If electrical power is required, a separate conduit should be
installed for electrical only. A certified electrician should be consulted for the proper conduit material (Figure D & E).
