Score Chute
Operating Instructions
(RC98SCOREAI)
Congratulations on purchasing Priefert’s new “SCORE” Chute.
This is the “Ultimate Training Chute”. In the fully automatic mode,
the rider can train his horse to respond to the rider’s que, NOT the
sound of the chute or the action of the steer. Having a well trained
horse is the key element for success, and the Score Chute helps
keep your horse competition ready.
Roping Chute Hook-Up
Step 1: Install a standard 1/4” NPT, male, quick-connect air tting
into hole marked air supply at back of the Automatic
Control Box (ACB). Be sure that the tting is the correct
size for the air line you intend to use. (See Diagram 1)
Step 2: Connect air supply to tting at the back of (ACB).
Set regulator on air compressor at 90 psi.
Proper performance requires a minimum of 2hp air compressor
that will produce 3.1 cfm at 90 psi, with a 4 gallon tank.
Step 3: Connect electrical cord to 110 volt outlet.
NOTICE: Priefert Manufacturing Recommends using a dedicated Air Compressor to prevent damage
from contamination to the Compressed Air System. Use Clean & Dry Compressed Air Supply.
Drain Compressor & Air Tanks Daily.

GATE DELAY
Located on the back of the Control Box is a “GATE DELAY” setting. A
silver knob activates and sets the delay timing. Each click clockwise
gradually delays the activation of the opening of the Front Gate from
2 to 30 seconds.
The rider can adjust the amount of time for the chute to open after
pressing button “1”, and then ready for the steer release.
AUTOMATIC
The button on the right rear of the Control Box switches the chute
into “AUTOMATIC” mode, where the chute uses an electronic eye to
detect the presence or absence of a steer.
In Automatic mode, pressing button “1” opens the Front Gate.
A few seconds after detecting the steer left the chute, the
headgate closes. The tailgate then opens, and upon detection
of the next steer having entered the chute, the tailgate closes.
One push of a button has completed the entire cycle & ropers have
the next steer loaded and ready to go upon return to the roping box.
AUTOMATIC with GATE DELAY
Both of these features, used together, allows the rider to choose a
Delay period from when the Front Gate opens, and the opening of the
Neck Gate. Pressing button “1” opens the Front Gate, seconds later,
the Neck Gate opens. The chute then cycles again as in “Automatic”
mode. Pressing button “3” will then close the Neck Gate.
Combining these functions will help train your horse to respond to
the que from the rider, NOT the opening of the chute.
