i MM-LPS13 Installation Manual
rev 05.16.13
Thank you for purchasing a Mighty Mule MM-LPS13. When correctly installed and properly used,
your MM-LPS13 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 MM-LPS13 Automatic Gate Operator.
The MM-LPS13 operator is designed for installation on a slide-to-open single leaf gate. The
gate must not exceed 24 feet in length nor weigh more than 650 pounds (please see Technical
Specifications on page 2). The MM-LPS13 operator can be used on vinyl, aluminum, chain link
and wrought iron gates.
The MM-LPS13 operator accommodates extra transmitters, digital keypads, solar panels, push
buttons, and other access control products. These optional accessories are noted with the
symbol.
The MM-LPS13 operator features adjustable obstruction sense. 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 MM-LPS13 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.
Please call Mighty Mule at (800) 543-GATE [4283] or [phone] for more information about
