7. Manual Motor Limits Setting
7.1
Identify the adjustment screw controls, when the material rolls down on the same side
as the limit adjusters, the upper adjuster controls the upper limit and the lower adjuster
controls the lower limit (note – these are reversed when the material rolls down on the
opposite side to the limit adjusters).
Upper limit – by turning the limit adjuster clockwise the barrel will continue to retract,
turning the limit adjuster counter clockwise will lower the limit (when lowering the
limit remember to deploy and retract the system using the hand controls to ensure that
the limit is correct).
Lower limit – by turning the limit adjuster clockwise the limit will become shorter,
turning the limit adjuster counter clockwise will lower the limit (when lowering the
limit remember to retract and deploy the system using the hand controls to ensure that
the limit is correct).
When close to the desired position make small adjustments to the limit adjusters and
retract and deploy the system away from the limit by approximately 2-3 feet, this will
allow you to accurately set the limit
If the motor does not stop near to the limit position stop the motor with the hand
controls and turn the limit adjuster counter clockwise, continue turning until the motor
stops (this could be up to 120 turns of the adjuster)
NOTE: the motors have a built in thermal cut off. If after several minutes of use the motor will not
run in either direction, allow the motor to cool down for approximately 20 minutes
.
