must be replaced by the breather cap before operating the barrier arm.
1. Remove the vent plug and
discard it.
2. Replace the vent plug with the
breather cap.

earn When and
a
What to djust
The StrongArm is pre-adjusted
at the factory before shipment. If
the arm length changes, it may be
necessary to re-adjust the arm and
gate operator. To level the arm
and properly adjust the StrongArm,
perform all adjustments in the
sequence listed:
1. Arm Leveling and Balancing
2. Valve Adjustments: Pressure
and Brake
3. Adjust Limit Switches
4. Emergency Override: Manual
Bypass
Recognize when you need to adjust
the valves:
• Slamming or rocking arm
• Open arm drifts down
• Operator pressure builds, but
arm does not move
• Arm moves slowly (indicates
high pressure)
• Premature battery drain on
DC operators
Brake valves are factory-set to midpoint, two turns. This should be sufficient for most applications.
