Page 15: Installation
Installation Installation Please note that there are two basic types of power unit mounting, concrete pad or post mounting. Choose the proper mounting for your application. The installation illustrations shown are for right hand units; for left hand units, everything will be just the opposite. If there is existing concrete at the area of power unit mounting, use the dimensioning procedure called out in pad mounting instructions. - Page 16 Installation STEP 1B: POST MOUNTING Locate and secure two posts, 3” O.D. Remove the mounting angles from base of power unit. Unit the angles to maintain the proper distance between posts. Secure the angles to the posts using U-bolts. Check that: ü...

Page 26: Accessories
Troubleshooting 2. Accessories Add-on accessories can create many of the problems that are credited to the operator. Many applications have more than one accessory item attached to the operator and some of these items even draw their power from the operator. Some of the symptoms that can show up because of accessories: The operator won’t close. -
Page 27: Low Voltage Circuit
Troubleshooting If there is power, then check for it at the transformer primary terminals. If there is voltage at the switch and none at the transformer, then you probably have a bad power disconnect and it should be replaced. If 3A and 3B check out O.K., then manually disconnect the operator from the gate. Very carefully, using a screwdriver with an insulated handle, press down on the open side of the contactor. -
Page 28: General Reference Information
Troubleshooting The R.P.M. Sensor is counting the r.p.m ‘s of the wheel that is attached to the shaft. There are no repairable parts for the sensor of wheel. The only thing that should be checked is the wire harness. Make sure that the wires are crimpled and fully seated into the housing. Also make sure that the housing is fully seated into the circuit board. -
