Troubleshooting
Clevis does not fit actuator rod.
Verify that the actuator has a 12mm bore size and that the clevis model (SGA-M12) is correct. Check for any foreign material obstructing the connection.
Loose connection or excessive play.
Ensure all fasteners are tightened to the recommended torque specifications. Check for wear on the clevis pin or mounting hole.
Squeaking or binding during movement.
Inspect the pivot point for contamination or lack of lubrication. Clean and lubricate the pivot point if necessary, according to manufacturer guidelines.
