WARNING
DO NOT USE THE RACHET WRENCH TO ROTATE THE MOTOR
IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF THE LOCKBAR.
DOING SO MAY RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR
DAMAGE TO THE MECHANISM.
The gate mechanism hand crank feature may be used either to crank the gate arm up, or in cases
where the arm has been sheared off, to crank the gate arm to the horizontal position.
Tools required are a ratchet wrench, 5/16-inch socket, and the Bi-directional Lock Bar.
Hand Cranking Procedure:
1. Disconnect power from the mechanism by opening up the test links on terminals 4 and 5.
2. Place ratchet wrench with 5/16-inch socket over the hexagon shaft (brake side). The ratchet
should be set in the direction to prevent its rotation backwards (direction depends on whether
you are raising or lowering the mechanism; the motor shaft rotates in the opposite direction as
the main shaft of the gate), This is required to retain your progress as you use the Lock Bar to
crank the mechanism.
3. Place the Lock Bar on the motor output shaft in the proper orientation (“Keep Up” or “Keep
Down” position). Do not engage the Lock Bar with the Reaction Pin. Rotate the Lock Bar to raise
or lower the gate. Once the gate is in the desired position, slide the Lock Bar over the Reaction
Pin and secure in place using the Cotter Pin.
