WARNING - To reduce the risk of injury or death:
READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS.
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.
Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control
away from children.
Always keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS
THE PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.
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.
The “CAUTION AUTOMATIC GATE” signs 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.
Use the emergency release only when the gate is not moving.
A secondary entrapment device such as loop detectors, edge switches, and beam
detectors are highly recommended and required to meet the UL325 standard.
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.
Do not install control box where the gate can come in contact with person using the
push button on side of control box.
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.
KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the owner’s manual. Have a qualified
service person make repairs to gate hardware.
The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use separate entrance.
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 adjusting 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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

APPLICATIONS
The Apollo Model 7200ETL Slide Gate Operator is designed to handle a slide gate
up to 32 feet in total length (accomodates a 30 foot drive) and 1,000 Lbs. 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 sealed battery (33
ampere hour minimum) is recommended. There are several advantages with 12 Volt
DC systems:
Low voltage virtually eliminates risk of electrical shock.
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
(Electrical battery chargers should have a class 2 transformer rating).
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.
Daily Cycles 1-10 1-20 1-40 1-60 1-80 80+
5 watt solar panel *
10 watt solar panel *
20 watt solar panel (requires 5310 regulator) *
30 watt solar panel (requires 5310 regulator) *
40 watt solar panel (requires 5310 regulator) *
1.5 amp battery charger *
10 amp battery charger *
Note: Double the amount of solar panels for Dual Gate Operators.

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?

Adjust the chain bolt to allow for
maximum tightening
Note: The height of
the chain bolt should
align with the bottom
teeth of the idler
sprockets.

STEP 5. Thread chain on the sprockets as shown.
STEP 6. (Refer to page 8)
Install the other gate bracket and chain bolt on the left side of the gate.
Determine the required length of chain needed to attach to the chain bolt and still allow adjustment.
Using a chain breaking tool (not provided), remove excess chain.
Attach chain to chain bolt.
Tighten all chain brackets and chain bolts. Allow 1 inch of chain lag per 10 feet of chain.
Chain should be
level with about a 1
inch lag per 10 feet.
T O P
Chain should be aligned with all sprockets.

Step 3. Activate the gate until the CLOSED LIMIT
LED is illuminated
Limit adjustment for left

- less travel
- more travel
Step 4. Adjust the corresponding limit switch for preferred
close position.
Step 5. Repeat steps 3 & 4 for setting the open limit
