INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR CP-4 AUTOMATIC GATE OPENER

1. SERIAL NUMBER

There is a barcode serial number on the bottom of "puck" and on the product box. When calling to talk about your product, please have this number handy.

A barcode is shown, with labels indicating "PRODUCT CODE", "YEAR MADE", and "SERIAL NUMBER". An example shows "CP4 20" and "999999".

4. CONNECT TO GATE

CP-4 works with all gate operators—powered or solar, single or dual free exit terminals.

2. TRENCH PIPE & CABLE

• Trench 1/2" PVC pipe to placement of CP-4.
• Smooth out entire length of cable before pulling thru PVC pipe.
• Gently pull cable thru PVC pipe (may need wire lubricant).

The trench should be 12' long. The cable run is 80'-100'.

[Note: Warranty void if cable not run in conduit]

3. CONDUIT & SLIP JOINT

After pulling cable through plastic conduit, insert conduit inside slip joint on "puck."

[Important Note] DO NOT GLUE (to un-install later, if needed).

5. TEST SENSITIVITY

[Note: In most cases do not adjust sensitivity or remove lid.]

[Note: Highest sensitivity is with DIP switches in the OFF position]

[Note: DIP switch color may vary]

6. BURY CONDUIT & “PUCK"

Trigger gate by swinging steel over puck (or driving by). If gate opens correctly, bury conduit and puck at least 5" - 8" below surface.

⚠️ IF ANIMALS TRAMPLING ON TOP OF BURIED PUCK OPEN THE GATE, BURY PUCK DEEPER, PACK DIRT AROUND IT, AND MAKE IT IMMOVABLE.
