4.1 Maintenance
4.2 Diagnostics Check
SECTION 4 - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS
When servicing the gate operator, always check any secondary (external) reversing devices (loops, photo eyes, etc.) for proper
operation. If external reversing devices cannot be made operable, do not place this operator in service until the malfunction can
be identified and corrected.
Always check the inherent reversing system when performing any maintenance. If the inherent reversing system cannot be
made operable, remove this operator from service until the cause of the malfunction is identified and corrected. Keeping
this operator in service when the inherent reversing system is malfunctioning creates a hazard for persons which can result
in serious injury or death should they become entrapped in the gate.
When servicing the gate operator, be sure that the AC input power is disconnected.
Inspection and service of this gate operator by a qualified technician should be performed anytime a malfunction is observed or
suspected. High cycle usage may require more frequent service checks.

Complete System
Check for sagging, chain must not rub against steel rail
separators. Tighten if necessary. Grease chain if necessary.
Check vehicular reverse and exit loops for proper operation.
Check oil level, should be at fill mark. Fill if necessary.
Use Mobil SHC-629 synthetic gear oil or equivalent.
Check manual release for proper operation.
Complete check of gate and gate operating system.
Check emergency vehicle access device for proper operation.
Inspect for damage. Check gate hinges for wear and grease if
necessary.
Check that the gate reverses on contact with an object in both
the opening and closing cycles.
Adjust the reversing sensors if necessary.
Check secondary (external) reverse device(s) stop or reverse the
gate when activated.
Have the following diagnostic tools available: VOM meter with minimum voltage memory or min-max range to check voltage
and continuity. Meg-ohm meter capable of checking up to 500 megohms of resistance to properly check ground loop integrity.
A malfunction can be isolated to one of the following:
• Gate Operator
• Loop System
• External Keying Devices
Use caution when checking high voltage areas: high voltage input terminal and the main terminals 16 through 19, the motor
capacitor and the motor.
Check the input indicator LEDs. They should only come ON when an external keying device (card reader, push button, etc.) is
activated. If any of the input LEDs are ON continuously, the gate will not operate. Disconnect the external keying devices one at
a time until the LED goes OFF.
