Martin Engineering M3203-08/12 3Martin® Gate Jack Opener

Installing Gate Opener

IMPORTANT

Read entire section before beginning work.

Air supply must be between 80 and 125 psi (5.5 to 8.5 bar) at

the control valve, not at the air source, for the unit to

operate properly.

CAUTION

Do not exceed 125 psi (8.5 bar) air pressure. Excessive air

pressure may cause damage to the Martin®Gate Jack Opener.

Make sure air is filtered and lubricated.

1. See Figure 1. With control valve (A) in closed position, connect filtered

and lubricated 80- to 125-psi (5.5- to 8.5-bar) air supply to control

valve inlet.

2. Retract the dog (B) by moving the release lever (C) until it stops.

3. Place the Martin®Gate Jack Opener over the capstan (D) on the rail car.

With the stirrups (E) pointing down, release the dog into a capstan hole.
