The following services need to be periodically performed:
• Check and adjust the gate operator for force, speed, and sensitivity.
• Make sure all power (AC/DC ) connections are corrosion free.
• Check all batteries for proper voltage of the intended use. A fully charged battery must be 26
VDC minimum.
• Verify battery backup functionally by turning off the power source (115 VAC and 230 VAC).
Don’t forget to restore power after testing.
• Check the wheels, guide rollers, chain, and lubricate where needed with a heavy-duty, highperformance
lubricant and avoid spillage.
• Inspect the track for any signs of cracking or separation.
• Test (use caution) all contact and non-contact sensors, all vehicle detectors, keypad, telephone
entry system or other control devices applicable.
• Test the manual release feature on the operator.
Maintenance instructions of BLSL840 performed by the end user/home owner
Maintenance instructions of BLSL840 performed by a qualified gate operator technician
Although all Platinum Access Systems’ gate operators are virtually maintenance free to an end user/home owner,
minimal maintenance is recommended to ensure a smooth operation of this unit.
End users/home owners:
• Perform maintenance every six months, or when strenuous noise from wheels and/or guide rollers is
detected. Lubricate them with heavy-duty, high-performance lubricant and avoid spillage.
• DO NOT take the cover off the operator and/or the electrical control box to perform maintenance.
• Make sure there are no cars in the path of the gate while performing maintenance.
• Make sure the person performing maintenance is the only person in control of all control devices
in order to avoid possible involuntary activation of the gate operator.
• Keep spraying water hoses and sprinkler systems away from the gate, gate operator and the
electrical control box at all times. Keep that general area as clean as humanly possible.
• Test (use caution) all non-contact sensors, all vehicle detectors, keypad, telephone entry system or
other control devices applicable.
