Gate operator limit cams are factory adjusted for 90
field. However, if long-term use requires replacing the limit cams, use the following procedure to install
and adjust the replacement limit cams.
•
Remove old limit cams by loosening the locking screws and removing cams from the shaft.
•
When installing replacement limit cams, ensure that the limit cams are centered over their
corresponding limit switches.
•
Small adjustments are magnified by the length of the gate.
•
To avoid damage to the gate and gate operator due to the gate overrunning its limits, perform
the following steps carefully:

5. Tighten the left limit cam locking screw.
6. Using manual OPEN and STOP, move the gate to its proper opened limit position.
7. If not already loose, loosen the locking screw on the right limit cam and turn the cam clockwise
until it just barely closes the limit switch.
8. Tighten the right limit cam locking screw.
