Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier 1.7 Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 9 of 31 Recommended Replacement Oils for CR-25E Direct replacement of oils is very complicated and should be considered carefully when doing so. The following oils are recommended by the manufacturer of the transmissions on the warning gates and barriers. The multi-grade Mobil SHC 629 synthetic oil is the manufacturers first choice.
Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier 1.8 Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 10 of 31 Brake Assembly Instructions (Reference Drawing: 0040-0023-C) IMPORTANT: Unless specified, the replacement brake assembly does not include a solenoid or a brake drum. If these items are required, they must be requested separately, please specify the motor voltage. WARNING: DISCONNECT BARRIER POWER BY THROWING THE MAIN POWER SWITCH (S1) OFF BEFORE REMOVING THE OLD BRAKE ASSEMBLY.
Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 11 of 31 If the solenoid continues to buzz, the solenoid release rod may be out of alignment. Loosening the screw between the Solenoid Plunger and Release Rod (Item 7) should alleviate this. If the problem persists, contact the manufacturer. 1.9 Motor Replacement Instructions IMPORTANT: Before replacing the motor, check that the new motor is identical to the old in voltage, phase and horsepower.
Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 12 of 31 1.10 Limit Switch Replacement Instructions WARNING: DISCONNECT BARRIER POWER BY THROWING THE MAIN POWER SWITCH (S1) OFF BEFORE BEGINNING. 1. Remove the old limit switch from the barrier limit switch assembly by removing the mounting screws and connecting wires. NOTE: Mark chain and drive sprocket for proper reinstallation alignment. 2.
Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 13 of 31 1.11 Field Balancing Instructions IMPORTANT: EVERY BARRIER IS BALANCED AT THE FACTORY BEFORE IT IS SHIPPED. IF ANY ADDITIONS OR CHANGES ARE MADE TO THE BARRIER ARM IN THE FIELD, THE BARRIER MAY REQUIRE RE-BALANCING. AN UNBALANCED ARM MAY DAMAGE THE OPERATOR.
Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 14 of 31 1.12 Gate Arm Balancing Instructions These adjustments are set at the manufacturing facility and should not need to be adjusted in the field unless the arms have been modified, causing the weight of the arm to change. Calculating Counterweight Requirements 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Disconnect arm drive by removing top connecting rod bolts located on each side of the operator.
Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 15 of 31 1.13 Adjusting the Barrier Movement When installing or maintaining a CR-25 barrier, setting the limit switches and connecting rod length properly can be confusing at times. The following instructions are intended to clarify this process. The steps can be broken into two sections, setting crank orientation, and setting barrier starting and stopping points.
Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 16 of 31 1) Determine the direction of rotation of the cranks. In a standard installation, the cranks pivot toward the motor, and the roadway. The limit switch cams rotate the same direction that the pivot rotates. Cam 1 is always the raise stop, Cam 2 is always the lower stop, Cam 3 generally controls the arm lights if there are any.
Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 17 of 31 5) Manually rotate the barrier into its fully closed to traffic position. Note: At fully closed, the lower drive crank should have rotated through 180 degrees, and should be pointing straight down. The connecting rods should be parallel with the sides of the housing and the cranks. 6) Rotate Cam 2 until the limit switch follower just falls off of the edge of the cam.
Installation & Operations Manual CR-25E Cable Beam Barrier Installation, Adjustment & Maintenance 18 of 31 8) With the barrier in the fully raised or lowered position, loosen the lock nuts on the connecting rods and turn the rods to increase or decrease their length. Adjust the rods until the barrier arm is in the desired position. NOTE: Adjusting the connecting rods changes both the raised and lowered position by the same amount.
