Operator fails to start
A. If the operator has been running a large number of
cycles, the motor may have become too hot and
tripped its thermal overload breaker. Allow the motor to
cool down and the thermal overload breaker will reset
automatically.
B. Make sure you have power at the master distribution
panel and that the power has not been turned off.
Motor operates, but gate does not move
A. In operators with torque limiters and friction pad clutches,
check for signs of slipping. You can mark the sprocket
and clutch with a yellow or white grease pen and watch
for the lines to move apart if slipping is taking place.
Adjust the torque limiter tighter if this is the problem.
B. Check for broken chain or worn belts.
C. Check all setscrews on pulleys and sprockets and
tighten them if necessary, and check for keys which may
have fallen loose from keyways.
Motor sounds like it is working harder than
normal
A. Make sure the gate is moving freely and without binding
throughout its entire travel.
B. Check the drive chain for obstructions (if the operator
has one).
C. If the operator has an internal brake mechanism, make
sure it is releasing.
Limit switch getting out of time
A. Check for proper tension on all limit chains to be sure
there is no jumping taking place. Mark one tooth and its
corresponding link and run the gate. If the marks have
moved, the chain is skipping.
B. Check the setscrews in limit sprockets for tightness. In
rotary limit boxes, check the rotary limit nut for sloppiness
or stripped threads. Replace if necessary.
Gate stopping part way open or closed
(but no visible obstruction)
A. The Controller may have received a false obstruction
input triggered by current sensing set too low. Make sure
the gate moves freely through its entire travel before
adjusting the current sensing.
B. The Maximum Run Timer may have counted down and
expired. This can be caused by having the timer set too
low, if a chain or belt is broken, or if a sprocket or pulley
is slipping. When the timer expires, the gate stops and
the beeper will sound.
C. An obstruction signal from an accessory wired to the
obstruction input may have triggered falsely. Check the
control board for lit indicators for any of the following
inputs: safety, shadow/reset, open obstruction, close
obstruction, stop, etc. If any are lit when the operator
should be running, remove all devices hooked to that
function and hook them up one at a time and try to run
the operator until the problem device is found. Refer to
Page 9 for details on the control board indicators.
Gate staying open with automatic system
A. If there are vehicle detectors used with the operator, one
of the loops or loop detectors may be sending a false
signal or needs to be reset. Observe the indicators on
the loop detector. Unplug the detector and try running
the operator.
B. An opening or reversing device may be stuck or
malfunctioning. Try disconnecting these devices and
hook them back up one at a time and try running the
operator until the malfunctioning device is found.
C. Make sure the close limit switch isn’t activated. If it is, the
operator will think the gate is already closed.
