Questions and answers
Part number for the radio transmitter

Challenger 9300 chain is slipping
The Challenger 9300 chain may be slipping because the limit stop is not correctly positioned. Each chain link provides 1/2" of trolley travel adjustment, so if the limit stop is not properly set, the chain may not maintain proper tension or movement. Adjusting the limit stop one link at a time may help resolve the issue.
