Replacing/Adjusting
carriage assemblies
This section describes how to replace or adjust a
carriage assembly. If you are replacing a carriage
assembly it will most likely need to be adjusted. The
carriage assemblies are the wheels that allow linear gate
movement. There are two types of carriage assemblies
and linear guides on the Cubiscan 325. The back linear
guide is an open rail that uses two three-wheel carriage
assemblies. The front linear guide is a V-rail that uses
two three-wheel carriage assemblies. The V-rail carriage
assembly has V-rail compatible wheels.
Items needed
–5/32'' Allen wrench
–Specialty carriage assembly wrenches
–Replacement carriage assembly (if needed)
Complete the following steps to replace or adjust a
carriage assembly.
1. Using a 5/32'' Allen wrench, remove the two screws
holding the wheel set in place that you need to
adjust or replace. Refer to
.
2. Remove the wheel set that you are trying to adjust or
replace.
3. Adjust the position of the carriage assembly wheels
by using the two carriage assembly wrenches. Use
one wrench to hold the nut located next to the
wheel in place. Use the other wrench to adjust the
nut that moves the middle wheel. Refer to
. Adjusting the wheels can be a
delicate process, as small wheel adjustments can
result in large differences.
You want the carriage assembly to fit snug in the
linear guide but not so snug that it restricts gate
movement or catches.
4. Once the wheels slide nicely in the guide, screw the
wheel set into place.
5. Power the Cubiscan 325 on.
