GATE DELAY INSTRUCTIONS & ADJUSTMENTS

The purpose of the gate delay system is to hold the rear swinging gate in the open position until the apron has cleaned all of the forage out of the box. By adjusting the flow control the speed in which the gate closes can be regulated. When the flow control is properly adjusted the gate will slowly close as the remainder of the forage is being unloaded. Once the box is completely unloaded the gate delay will reach a trip position with the trip arm moving the lower cylinder shaft out of the horizontal slot and allow the gate to trip closed and latch. For proper operation adjust as follows. When the gate is completely closed (tight to rear upright) the cable and eyebolt assembly should be adjusted so the cable has no slack. Cable should be tight but not over tightened. If cable and eyebolt is over tightened the lower cylinder will trip out of the L-shaped slot on the lower bracket prematurely and the gate will try to close before the cylinder is fully extended. If the cable and eyebolt is too loose the lower cylinder will not trip out of the L-shaped slot and the cylinder will reach its maximum stroke and the trip arm will still not be in the tripped position allowing the gate to close. The gate will be held open by the top cylinder bracket and the bracket may become damaged over time. The eyebolt and cable will need to be adjusted periodically to maintain proper operation.
