ii GTO 4000XLS Instruction Manual © 01.10.12
Thank you for purchasing a GTO/ACCESS SYSTEMS 4000XLS. When correctly installed and properly used,
your 4000XLS operator will give you many years of reliable service. Please read the following information
to ensure you have the correct system for your particular needs. This manual will enable you to properly
install your 4000XLS Automatic Gate Operator.
The 4000XLS operator is designed for installation on a pull-to-open single leaf gate. The gate must not
exceed 20 feet in length nor weigh more than 1000 pounds* (please see Technical Specications on page
1). The 4000XLS operator can be used on vinyl, aluminum, chain link, farm tube, and wrought iron gates.
Use on solid (wood) gates is not recommended. Solid surface gates have a high resistance to the wind.
If the wind is strong enough, the operator will obstruct, stop, and blow fuses.
The 4000XLS can be installed on a push-to-open gate with the addition of the push-to-open bracket
[R4KPTO].
The 4000XLS operator accommodates extra transmitters, digital keypads, solar panels, push buttons,
automatic gate locks, and other access control products. These optional accessories are noted with the
symbol.
The 4000XLS operator features adjustable stall force. This safety feature makes the gate stop and reverse
direction within two seconds when it comes in contact with an obstruction. The “MIN” setting means the
gate will exert the minimum force on an obstruction before it stops and reverses direction.
The 4000XLS operator also has an adjustable auto-close feature. It can be set to remain open from 3 to
120 seconds before automatically closing. Pressing the transmitter button at any time after the gate fully
opens will cause it to close immediately. “OFF” is the factory setting; meaning the gate will stay open until
you press the transmitter button (or keypad, etc.) again.
