Hi - I have the Lyn 300 Professional - works fantastically except in the very cold when gates won't open.

Should I increase the motor force to compensate, or should I be thinking about insulating the gate arms?

Any suggestions greatfully received
Increasing the force enough for the gates to operate in the cold would be the best idea, once the weather warms up decrease the force to an appropriate level.

Kind Regards,

Many thanks Steve - have increased closing force to about 50% and so far no problems - will await next cold spell with interest!
