6. Basic Maintenance
CentSys motors are designed to be maintenance-free.
However, there are some basic checks that should be carried out
regularly (every six months). These checks will increase the long term
reliability of the system and prevent erratic operation of your gate.
Disconnect all sources of electrical power before
cleaning or working on the equipment.
General
Keep the track clear of stones, dirt and obstructions
Ensure that all rollers run freely
Put the motor into Manual Mode and check that the gate runs freely
on its rail and does not catch or foul against the walls or pillars
Ensure that the gate wheels and guide-rollers are rotating freely and
are not worn. In high-volume applications it will be necessary to
replace these components regularly
Ensure that the rack is properly secured to the gate and that it does
not press down onto the operator pinion at any point along its travel
Keep shrubs and vegetation clear of the motor and rack
Check that the key still operates the camlock - spray with lubrication
if necessary
Keep the inside of the motor housing clear of insects and dust
Battery
CentSys motors are fitted with high-quality, maintenance-free lead acid
batteries which should provide up to three years of normal service life.
Check for corrosion of the battery terminals
Clean and apply copper-based grease as necessary
Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Consult Centurion
Systems (Pty) Ltd for assistance.
