Your carriage has broken and does not allow a good fixation of the jack on the gate bracket anymore and you need to replace it. Follow the step-by-step instructions in this tutorial.
4″ BTR wrench or head
Remove the 4 protective rubbers and unscrew the 4 BTR screws to remove the front panel.
Remove the front panel.
You can access the worm gear.
Pull it out of the cylinder.
Don’t lose this element that links the worm gear to the mechanical reduction system of the motor. It may end up on the worm gear or remain on the motor shaft.
Remember to put this item back on the new auger before the next step.
Check that both bearings are properly positioned on the worm
Insert the new auger into the cylinder and push it to the motor
The worm bearing must fit into the motor mount so that the link on the worm integrates with the motor shaft.
Push the worm slightly and see if the bearing fits.
If the bearing does not retract, it means that the motor shaft is not in the same position as the worm.
Turn the auger slightly while pushing it slightly inward.
Before finalizing the re-installation of the front panel, power the motor with a 9V battery or a 12V battery, and check that the carriage moves well in opening and closing.
Replace the front of the cylinder. Remember to put the notch towards the circulation hole of the worm carriage.
Screw the screws back in and replace the rubber covers.
Congratulations, you have replaced your worm gear with carriage on your cylinder and it is ready to operate your gate leaves again.
