Gate Starts to Open or Close but Stops and Reverses

  1. Open the control box cover and locate the sensitivity adjustment potentiometer on the Ranger control board. Turn the white center clockwise to increase force.
  2. A setting of 8 for PRO80 or 5 for HD will work for most gates. If your gate requires a higher setting, there is likely an underlying issue that needs to be addressed. Common causes include incorrect hinges, the gate touching the ground, an unlevel gate, or a bent or defective actuator arm. Identify and correct the problem before adjusting further.
