Setting the Closed Position Limit Switch
Step 29:
Remove the rear cover of the operator to gain access to the limit switches and the limit switch cams.
IMPORTANT: The inner switch cam assembly is factory set. Do not attempt to adjust the inner switch cam. This switch cam is not adjustable; attempting to move it will cause damage to the operator!
Step 30:
For Pull-to-Open Installations:
The open position of the gate was determined when you installed the GTO/PRO 2000 on the open gate (page 15, Step 12). The outer switch cam is used to adjust the CLOSED POSITION of the gate. The ideal closed position is when the closed position stop plate makes contact with the fence post just as the operator motor shuts down. Turn the cam until the desired setting is accomplished. Test adjust- ments by using transmitter.
For Push-to-Open Installations:
The closed position of the gate was determined when you installed the GTO/PRO 2000 on the closed gate (see page 32). The outer switch cam is used to adjust the OPEN POSITION of the gate. The ideal open position is when the gate makes contact with the open position stop post just as the operator motor shuts down. Turn the cam until the desired setting is accomplished. Test adjustments by using transmitter.
NOTE: Some adjustment to the closed position can be made by disconnecting the operator from the gate bracket and rotating the push/pull tube to extend or shorten the operator length.
CAUTION: Because this operator is a powerful device, it is extremely important to properly set the limit switch. Keep the transmitter at hand during this operation in case you need to start or stop the operator to prevent harm to people or your gate.
