If you intend storing the
GO-E2
Opener under adverse conditions or for a long period
of time, special storage precautions will be necessary:
1.
Store in a sheltered area away from chemical vapors or steam.
2.
Cover the Gear Motor.
3.
Do not store in sunlight or near high heat.

Remove plastic wick from breather.
5.
Spray or wipe oil on exposed shafts and seals. Remove oil prior to start-up.
6.
Rotate output shaft 360° every 2 - 3 weeks.
TELESCOPING DRIVESHAFT
The basic function of a Driveshaft is to transmit power from one point to another in a
smooth and continuous action. In the
GO-E2
Opener, the Driveshaft is designed to
send torque through an angle from the Gear Motor to the hopper car bottom gate or
door.
The Driveshaft must operate through changing relative angles between the Gear Motor
and the hopper car. It must also be capable of changing length while transmitting
torque. This means the Driveshaft must be able to expand, contract and change
operating angles while the gate is being opened or closed. This is accomplished by
U-joints which permit the Driveshaft to operate at varying angles.
The Telescoping Driveshaft (TDS) consists of two shielded yoke and tube assemblies
with guards and U-joints. The outer yoke, tube and U-joint assembly also includes an
end yoke with a 1-1/4" F. Square Drive to accept the Capstan Drive Fitting. The inner
yoke, tube and U-joint assembly also includes an end yoke with a 1-7/8" F. bore with
1/2" x 1/4" keyway to accept the Gear Motor's output shaft.
Each U-joint allows the TDS to angle up to 20° off-center so that the Operator needs
only to "rough spot" the
GO-E2
Opener in relation to the hopper car gate.
Rotating shafts can be dangerous. You can snag
clothes, skin, hair, hands, etc.
