4. Operasi

The Q032 Limit Switch Adjustment Nuts are integral components of the gate opener's limit switch assembly. Their primary function is to define the gate's open and closed positions.

• This activation signals the gate opener's control board to stop the motor, thereby setting the gate's fully open or fully closed position.
• Proper adjustment of these nuts is critical for the safe and efficient operation of the gate, preventing it from over-traveling or not closing completely.
