If the pillar dimensions or the hinge position do not allow the installation of the actuator, a niche on the pillar, as shown in Fig. 6, should be cre-
ated in order to maintain the A dimension as determined. The niche should be dimensioned in such a way to enable easy installation, actuator
rotation and operation of the release device. The mounting brackets are designed to enable small adjustments in both directions (fig.6A), it is
possible to use the two multipoint brackets overlapped (pict. 6B: in this case the only holes to be used are the 3 highlighted, according to the
direction of the leaf movement). In any case, always refer to the measurements shown in the table.
Please keep to the values given in the table and oil the gate's hinges.
1_ Fix the rear bracket in the position determined before. In the event of iron pillar carefully weld directly the bracket or use n°4 suitable
screws (fig.7). In the event of brick pillar (fig.8), use n°4 suitable bolts (after you have assembled it, fig.8A).
During the fastening operations, check if the bracket is perfectly horizontal by means of a level.
WARNING - In case of large gate leaves and /or closed design leaves other than the installation of an electro lock it is
suggested to strengthen the fastening of the back bracket (weld the steel parts instead of using screws to assemble the
bracket, use steel anchors instead of the dowels, weld the bracket onto the pillar, etc.).
2_ Set the operator for manual operation (see paragraph MANUAL RELEASE).
3_ Completely extend the rod till it reaches the limit stop (1 fig.9).
4_ Lock the operator again (see paragraph RESTORING NORMAL OPERATION).
5_ Turn the rod clockwise half a revolution (2 fig.9).
6_ Assemble the front bracket as shown in fig.10. Fasten the screw using the special nut and insert the self-lubricating bushing into the
bracket as shown on Fig. 10.
7_ After removing the terminal board cover, anchor the actuator to the rear bracket using the screw and nut supplied (see 1 fig.11);
ATTENTION: The actuator can be moved by hand only if it is installed on the gate and in released position (see paragraph MAN-
UAL RELEASE).
ATTENTION: carefully verify that, when gate is closed, the actuator's rear do not touch the bracket (see fig.
11). If so adjust the setting accordingly.
8_ Check measurement "L" according to the table (fig.5).
9_ rest the bracket that has just been fixed, onto the wing of the completely closed gate and mark the fixing points (make sure it is level, see
fig. 12).
Before going on to the next phase please carry out the following test:
10_
Release the actuator (see paragraph MANUAL RELEASE) and manually check if the gate can completely open without hindrances and
stop at the mechanical travel stoppers (floor-mounted mechanical stoppers) as well as if the leaf moves regularly without any friction.
11_
Carry out the necessary corrective measures and repeat from point 10. Manually open the gate to the maximum required angle;
12_
Tighten the arm until the front bracket finds itself over the position just marked on the gate.
If the small bracket does cover the position marked it means installation has been done correctly.
This method can be used to establish where the small bracket will have to be welded for each opening angle (X°) required provided it is pos-
sible (parameters A and B and the actuator's useful travel permitting).
13_
fasten the gate mounting bracket in the position indicated (fig.13), referring to the dimensions shown in fig. 14 and ensuring the planar-
ity of the assembly.
Note: if the gate structure does not allow a fix bracket fastening it is necessary to create a sturdy supporting base in the
gate structure.
Note: for complete safety, the mechanical stops with rubber cap (floor stops) must be fitted in opening and closing of the
gate (7 fig. 3), in order that they intervene just before the mechanical piston stops.
5. WIRING THE ACTUATOR
A terminal board is fitted in the lower part of the actuator for the connection of the motor, of any limit switch and for the earthing of the
actuator. (fig.15-16).
Connect the motor and the earthing with reference to fig.15-16 and to the table.
