down next to, and ‘AUTO’ does not engage.
This is corrected by either (a) manually operating the override lever or hand-wheel backwards and forwards (wiggling it!) until the spring
pushes the gear back down – you can generally hear a click when this happens, or (b) by applying a reversing signal to the actuator
which will cause the gear to automatically drop back into place.
Misuse of the hand wheel
• Do not turn the hand wheel without first selecting ‘MAN’ as the plastic drive shaft will shear.
This is not a warranty issue as it is user
abuse of the product.
• Do not grab the manual override lever/ hand-wheel to try and stop it rotating when the motor is running as it can cause the gear fitted
to the gearbox end of the manual override shaft to fail. The ETL may engage before this happens, but there is a greater likelihood that
the gear will fail.
This is not a warranty issue as it is user abuse of the product.
•
Do not carry a built valve and assembly by the MO hand-wheel
because the weight of the valve can cause the heavy assembly to turn
which can cause the same gear as described above to fail.
This is not a warranty issue as it is incorrect use of the product.
