6- Install the metal case, taking into account that the upper end of the case must be approximately 10 mm above
ground level (to limit rainwater flowing into the case) E(6a - 6b).
7- Once the metal case has been positioned and before cementing it, perfectly level the surface using a spirit level
A(6a - 6b) so that the bollard can move perfectly vertically. The flooring or road paving must be flush with the
upper end of the metal case B(6a - 6b).
8- Once the metal case is in position and before pouring the concrete, install a flexible tube with an inside
diameter of 50 mm through which to run the electric cables D(6a - 6b) coming from the control unit.
9- Pour concrete (Rck= 25 N/mm²) all around the case with a pump truck and vibrate the casting.
10- Lay the other pipes from the point where the control unit is installed to the point where the additional
accessories are installed (traffic lights, magnetic coils, etc.), and prepare for electrical connection, earthing and
any controls.
11- Wait at least two weeks for the concrete to reach 80% of its mechanical properties and then finish the road
surface.
12- Fit the adjusting screws D(7) in the position indicated.
13- Install the TOUCHE bollard in the metal case after removing the three screws C(7). Remove the cap B(7) and fit
the three M20 eyebolts A(7) in the threaded holes. Lift TOUCHE (8) using a winch or lift truck hooking it into the 3
eyebolts and install it in the metal case after fitting the connection line in the previously prepared tube B(8).
It is advisable to use a cable puller to run the electric cables through the tube in order not to damage
them.
14- Check that the top of the TOUCHE bollard is level using a spirit level. If necessary, adjust by turning the
adjustment screws D(7).
15- It is advisable to lubricate the retaining screws and the bollard (9) cap lock screws with grease, which will make
future maintenance operations easier.
REMOVING THE BOLLARD
In the event of violent impact against the raised bollard which can compromise its operation, the bollard can be
quickly removed from its seat.
This operation can be carried out in two ways, both taking maximum 5-10 minutes.
METHOD 1
Three operators are required to simultaneously perform the following operations:
1- After cutting the power to the main electric panel, the first operator disconnects the electric cables (10) so that
they can be pulled out when TOUCHE is removed.
2- The second operator unscrews the covering collar screws (11), removes the collar, unscrews the TOUCHE
retaining screws (12) and then screws on the three M20 eyebolts.
3- Hook into the eyebolts using a rigid pipe at least 2,5 m long and a cord.
4- The third operator lifts the bollard while the other two operators pull out the electric cables taking the utmost care
not to damage them (13). The cables must be completely removed from their seat.
Tools required:
• A n° 6 allen wrench for the bollard cap and a n°8 Allen wrench for the flange retaining screws
• Three M20 eyebolts
• Rigid pipe at least 2,5m long
• Cord or chain to hook onto the eyebolts
METHOD 2
Two operators are required to simultaneously perform the following operations:
1- After cutting the power to the main electric panel, the first operator disconnects the electric cables (10) so that
they can be pulled out when TOUCHE is removed.
