Adjust the Limits and Automatic Force
To reduce the risk of SEVERE INJURY or DEATH:
•
Without a properly installed safety reversal system, persons
(particularly small children) could be SERIOUSLY INJURED or
KILLED by a moving gate.
•
Too much force on gate will interfere with proper operation of safety
reversal system.
•
NEVER increase force beyond minimum amount required to move
gate.
•
NEVER use force adjustments to compensate for a binding or
sticking gate.
•
If one control (force or travel limits) is adjusted, the other control
may also need adjustment.
•
After ANY adjustments are made, the safety reversal system MUST
be tested. Gate MUST reverse on contact with an object.
Manual Adjustments
Your operator is designed with electronic controls to make travel limit
and force adjustments easy. The adjustments allow you to program
where the gate will stop in the open and close position. The limit setup
LEDs (located next to the SET OPEN and SET CLOSE buttons) indicate
the status of the limits, refer to the table to the right.
The limits can be set using the control board (below) or a remote control
(refer to Limit Setup with a Remote Control in the Appendix). Setting the
limits with a remote control requires a 3-button remote control
programmed to OPEN, CLOSE, and STOP.
NOTE: While setting the limits, all entrapment protection devices will be
disconnected, and the OPEN and CLOSE Test buttons can be used to
move the gate as needed. During the Automatic Force Setup, all
entrapment protection devices will be reconnected, and the gate will
automatically open and close
NOTE: The TEST buttons on the control board will not work until the
limits have been set and the required entrapment protection devices are
installed.
