Pressure Lock Gates Installation Instructions

Pressure Lock Gate Operating Instructions:

1. Raise unit retainer channel (A) to vertical position and secure

2. Extend gate until rubber bumpers touch the walls

3. Lower the male lock channel (B) (with pin) until it rests on carriage channels within guides and locking bracket

4. Lower female lock channel (C) (with adjustment holes) until it rests within the male lock channel with pin. Pin need not engage a hole in female lock channel.

5. Raise both channels (be careful to avoid pinching hands) until pin engages the hole immediately to the right of the pin. Applying moderate pressure, push both channels down until they rest within guides and locking bracket. Padlock in position.

Note: Do not attempt to increase locking pressure by engaging a hole more distant from pin than that described in step 5. Excessive pressure may develop.
