Maintenance & Troubleshooting
• On all gates weighing 250 lb. or more, routinely
grease the ball bearing hinges at least 4 times a year;
more frequently if the gates are near a coastal area.
• Keeping a few mothballs in the control box will
discourage insects from entering it and damaging the
control board.
• Clean the push-pull tube with a soft, dry cloth and
apply silicone spray to it at least once per month.
