This happened to me once during a contest at night. Climbing the tower in
darkness to rock the beam was no fun. That was enough to search for a
solution.

I installed a small DPDT center-off toggle switch on the control box front
panel to defeat either limit switch when so desired. When in the center
position, the rotator functions normally. If it jams against either stop, I
push the toggle in that direction and alternate the CW-CCW switches once and
it's free.
