Step 4
Upon observation of the satisfactory
arrangement of the articulated arm and
bracket, weld all pieces securely.
STEP 5
Upon test of the installation, loosen the
clutch and rotate it until it lines up with the
notches in the Output Shaft. Insert the
Clutch Key.
STEP 6
Check the Clutch adjustment. The Clutch is
shipped factory adjusted. The clutch must be
tight enough to prevent slippage in normal
operation.
Check the tightness of the Clutch:
A. Remove the Clutch Key from the clutch.
B. Attempt to move the gate by hand.
C. If slippage occurs:
1. Loosen the Locking Handle 180°
2. Tighten the opposite bolt.
3. Tighten the Locking Handle 180°
4. Check the tightness of the clutch again.
NOTE – For proper operation of the Clutch,
keep the gap between the Clutch halves
even when adjusting (the Clutch will have
to be removed from the Output Shaft in
order to adjust the Release Handle bolt).
