Windy Nation HD Actuator Limit Switch - Manual (Page 2)

b. Very slowly rotate the upper limit cam counter clockwise (i.e. moving towards the upper
limit switch) until you hear a “CLICK” Sound from the limit switch (may also be felt).
c. Now the mechanical upper limit is set.
2. If the actuator cannot reach the farthest extension point:
a. Open the back cover of the actuator locating two plastic cams stacked one on the other
(see image above). The upper one is for the upper limit adjustment.
b. Loosen the limit cam screw, but do not remove.
c. Turn the upper cam clockwise (i.e. Moving away from the upper limit switch) in small
increments to extend the actuator slowly. Do not allow the actuator to extend all the way
out. This may cause the actuator to bend and/or the driving gear may be destroyed. Both
accidents will void the warranty.
d. Adjust the upper cam carefully to see if the actuator can now reach the farthest extension
point. If it can, follow procedures in step 1 to set the upper limit. If it does not you may
need a longer actuator.
IMPORTANT
1. Use the enclosed two (2) spacers or as many flat washers as necessary (not included) to create
the correct alignment and clearance as follows:
a. Between the rod end and the antenna mount.
b. Between the bracket and the antenna mount.
Correct Alignment Incorrect Alignment
Correct Clearance
2. Do NOT connect the 24-36V DC motor wires of the positioner to the reed sensor switch. This
destroys the reed-sensor and disables the positioner for calculating the antenna-position.
DAMAGE RESULTING FROM FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS WILL VOID WARRANTY.
