ADJUSTING THE LIMIT SWITCHES

Test the operator to verify that the limit switches are properly set. The

operator should open and close the gate completely. After properly setting

the limit switches, the control board must be set according to the operator

application. The system accessories should also be connected to the

control board.

The limit switches determine how far the gate travels to open and close. The closer the limit nut is to the limit switch,

the less distance the gate will travel to open or close. Adjust the limit switches by moving the limit nuts.

MAKE SURE THE OPERATOR POWER IS OFF BEFORE ADJUSTING THE LIMIT SWITCHES.

Lift and release the limit switch plate to unlock the limit nuts (see

illustration at right). Using a fingertip, roll the limit nuts along the travel

shaft until the correct open and closed gate positions are determined.

If the gate opens from LEFT to RIGHT (see illustration below): the

right limit switch adjusts the closed position. The left limit switch

adjusts the open position.

If the gate opens from RIGHT to LEFT (see illustration below): the

left limit switch adjusts the closed position. The right limit switch

adjusts the open position.

Lift limit switch plate to release,

then adjust limit nut.
