CHAIN SUPPORTS
When necessary, due to the length of the gate and chain, chain supports should be added to the gate at equally spaced
distances to allow the chain to sag as little as possible. A bolt located one inch below the chain line should be adequate.
MANUAL DISCONNECT
Use the mechanical parts exploded view drawing on page 26 and mechanical parts list on page 27 to locate the shifter lever
and the locking lever on the VS-GSLG operator. They can be found at the center and to the left inside the operator cabinet.
(The handle of each has been fi nished in easy to spot red fi rm-grip coating.)
To disconnect the unit for manual operation, grasp the handle of the spring-loaded shifter lever and pull it directly toward you
until the spring-loaded locking lever snaps into place behind it. This action disengages the pinned shifter block from the drive
mechanism and holds the block in the disengaged position.
To re-engage the operator, move the locking lever to the right, releasing the spring-loaded shifter lever to snap back into the
engaged position.
TORQUE LIMITER ADJUSTMENT
Before adjusting the torque limiter, make sure the gate is in good working condition. One person should be able to move the
gate by hand. Be certain the gate moves freely and without binding throughout its entire travel.
The torque limiter is set light at the factory.
It must be adjusted during installation and checked on a regular basis.
NOTE:
The torque limiter should be set tight enough so that when the operator starts the torque limiter does not slip, but
loose enough to slip if the gate is obstructed.
TURN OFF POWER TO THE
OPERATOR BEFORE
MAKING ADJUSTMENTS!
1. Loosen the set screw on the the adjustment nut.
2.
To increase the output,
turn the adjustment nut clock-
wise one fl at, or 1/6 turn, at a time until desired output
is obtained.
WARNING:
Do not overtighten. The torque limiter must
slip if the gate is obstructed.
To reduce the output,
turn the adjustment nut coun-
terclockwise one fIat, or 1/6 turn, at a time until desired
output is obtained.
NOTE:
A properly adjusted torque limiter will not slip
during normal operation.
3. Retighten the set screw on the adjustment nut.
