Adjusting The Limit Switches - HySecurity SwingSmart DC Series Programming And Operations Manual

ADJUSTING THE LIMIT SWITCHES

1. Determine whether the gate operator is a
right-hand operator (Figure 11) or left-hand
operator (Figure 12). Stand on the secure side
of the gate. If the gate opens to the right, it is
a right-hand operator.

NOTICE
For a right-hand operator, the OPEN switch is
the left limit switch as shown in Figure 13. The
opposite occurs in a left-hand operator; the
OPEN switch becomes the right limit switch.

2. To adjust the limit cams, use a Phillips-head
screwdriver and loosen the fastener that
secures each limit cam to the limit plate.
3. Manually, open and close the gate. Move
the limit cams so they trip the appropriate
limit switch at the full OPEN and full CLOSE
positions.
4. Secure the limit cams by retightening the two
Phillipshead screws.
A fin on the limit plate fits into the taper clamp.
This feature ensures the limits always track the
gate arm position even if the gate is struck and
the taper clamp slips.
NOTICE
When reassembling the taper clamp, make
sure the limit plate fin is seated into the slot
on the taper clamp.
