    Because gates vary in construction and may have different force requirements in the open and close directions to move, the OSCO control board has separate Multi-turn potentiometers for adjusting in both directions independently. The adjustment should be set light enough to maintain minimal force (40 lbs.) should an obstruction occur, but high enough to keep the gate moving under normal conditions without interruption.
