ELECTRICAL CONNECTION AND ADJUSTMENTS
All LINEAR gate operators are supplied with a power disconnect switch to turn on and off the power supply available to the
operator. Incoming power should be brought into the operator and connected to the labeled pigtails in the disconnect box
following wiring specifi cations on page
4
. A wiring connections print can be found on the inside cover of the operator.
Proper thermal protection is supplied with the operator. The motor contains a thermal overload protector to protect from
overheating the motor due to overload or high-frequency operation. This overload will automatically reset after the motor
cools down.
LIMIT NUT ADJUSTMENTS
The limit nuts are not preset at the factory and must be adjusted for the length of the gate the operator is installed on. The
limit switches are activated by two threaded nylon rotary limit nuts which are attached to a threaded shaft and driven by chain
and sprockets from the main drive shaft. Remove the cardboard fi ller before attempting to adjust the limit nuts.
With the gate connected to the gate operator in a mid-travel position, and the power disconnect switch turned
OFF
, discon-
nect the operator by using the manual disconnect lever. Instructions for the manual disconnect can be found in the individual
operator owner’s guides. Once the operator has been disconnected, manually move the gate by hand to within a foot of its
fully open position (the foot of distance is necessary to allow for coasting of the operator after the limit switch is tripped).
Once the gate is in this position, adjust the open limit nut until it activates the limit switch for open,
LSO-1
. Press down on
the detent plate and rotate the nut along the threaded shaft. Refer to the illustration below for additional details.
Once the open limit nut is set, repeat the above process for the close direction nut and the
LSC-1
limit switch.
After fi nishing the initial limit nut adjustments, reposition the gate to approximately its center of travel. Re-engage the operator
and turn the power disconnect
ON.
Stand clear of any moving parts and press the
OPEN
button on the three-button station.
If the gate begins to close instead of open, press the
STOP
button immediately. Find the dip switch block on the main control
board and switch the hand of operation (dip switch #4, see page
9
) and try to open the gate again. Observe the gate as it
runs through a complete cycle in both directions, and adjust your limits again if necessary. Fine levels of adjustment can also
be achieved by adjusting a few teeth on the nut at a time. If the gate stops in mid travel, the open or close current sensor
adjustment or the maximum run timer may need adjustment (see page
11
).
Power supply must be of correct voltage and phase.
Always disconnect power from operator before servicing.
Keep clear of gate during operation.
