Important Safety InformationSecondary Means of Protection Against EntrapmentAs specied by Gate Operator Safety Standard, UL325 (30A.1.1), automatic gate operators shall have aninherent entrapment sensing system, and shall haveprovisions for, or be supplied with, at least oneindependent secondary means to protect againstentrapment. The Mighty Mule 500 utilizes Type A,an inherent (i.e., built-in) entrapment sensing systemas the primary type of entrapment protection. Also,the Mighty Mule 500 has provisions for the connection of Type B2 protection to be used as the secondarytype of entrapment protection, and is recommended.A. One or more contact sensors shall be located atthe leading edge, bottom edge, and post edge,both inside and outside of a vehicular swing gatesystem.B. A hard wired contact sensor shall be located andits wiring arranged so that the communicationbetween the sensor and the gate operator is notsubjected to mechanical damage.C. A wireless contact sensor such as one thattransmits radio frequency (RF) signals to the gateoperator for entrapment protection functions shallbe located where the transmission of the signalsis not obstructed or impeded by buildingstructures, natural landscaping or similarobstruction. A wireless contact sensor shallfunction under the intended end-use conditions.1. For gate operators utilizing a contact sensor (e.g.,safety edge sensor– Type B2) in accordance withUL 325 (51.8.4 [i]):Leading Edge Contact Sensoron both sides of the gate500Vehicular GatePost Edge Contact Sensoron both sides of the gateBottom Edge Contact Sensoron both sides of the gateENTRAPMENT ALARM (UL 325; 30A.1.1A)The Mighty Mule 500 Automatic Gate Operator is designed to stop and reverse within 2 seconds when the gatecomes in contact with an obstruction. Additionally, these operators are equipped with an audio entrapment alarm whichwill activate if the unit obstructs twice while opening or closing. This alarm will sound for a period of 5 minutes, or until the operator receives an intended signal from a hardwired entry/exit source (e.g. push button control or keypad) andthe gate returns to a fully open or fully closed position. Turning the power switch on the control box OFF and back ONwill also deactivate the alarm. Wireless controls such as transmitters and wireless keypads will not deactivate the alarm.6

New Mexico is known for its mule deer hunting, and it is a destination for both residents and non-residents who wish to harvest a high-quality mule deer buck. New Mexico has two subspecies of mule deer, Rocky Mountain mule deer and desert mule deer. In
five year period from 2015 - 2019, mule deer focused actions were implemented in 14 areas within the range of mule deer in Oregon (Figure 2). The overall intent was to maintain the momentum of actions focused on mule deer restoration and use knowledge from successful initial efforts by expanding actions to additional mule deer units.
