PRELIMINARY WARNINGS
Check that the gate structure is in conformity with the regulations in force and that the gate movement is linear
without friction.
Preliminary checks:
• Check that the gate structure is sufficiently robust.
• In any event, the actuator must push the leaf at a reinforced point.
• Manually check that the leafs move without force along their entire travel.
• If the gate is not a new installation, check the state of wear of all the components, and repair or replace the
defective or worn parts.
The reliability and safety of the automated device is directly dependent on the condition of the gate structure.
INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS
Refer to
fig.
5 for possible installation dimensions.
OPERATOR INSTALLATION
Preliminary checks:
For proper functioning of the automated device, the existing or new gate structure must meet the following
requirements:
The individual leafs must have a maximum length of 2.5m
Ÿ
The leaf structure must be robust and rigid
Ÿ
The leafs must move smoothly and uniformly without irregular friction along their entire travel
Ÿ
The existing hinges must be in a good condition
Ÿ
Installing the operators
Find the most suitable point where to fasten the front bracket of the operator and mark it.
Ÿ
Using a spirit level mark the point on the pillar where to fasten the rear bracket .
Ÿ
Identify the point where to fasten the rear bracket in relation to the dimensions A-B
Ÿ
Fasten the rear bracket to the pillar fig.6a-6b .
Ÿ
Fit the operator on the rear bracket using the screws provided fig.6c .
Ÿ
Fasten the arms and the front bracket on the operator fig.6d .
Ÿ
Unlock the operator (see unlocking device).
Ÿ
Move the leaf to closed position.
Ÿ
Fix the front bracket to the leaf .
Ÿ
Use a spirit level to check that the arm is perfectly level.
Ÿ
Manually open and close the gate to its full opening and closing travel. The gate must move smoothly without
Ÿ
friction.
Fix the mechanical stoppers fig.6e-6f.
Ÿ
