Breakaway Arm Reset Procedure

If arm gets struck and breaks away, gate operator will automatically shut down (Breakaway sensors are tripped). Simply snap arm back into the 
release rollers. Make sure all wires are out of the way of the arm when snapping arm back in position. Normal operation can then continue.

DO NOT OPERATE ARM WITHOUT BREAKAWAY SENSORS FUNCTIONING.
