FITTING THE RACK
1- Manually move the gate to the closed position.
2- unlock the gearmotor (see paragraph Unlocking Device).
3- arrange the rack (optional)(10 - 11 - 12).
4- place the first section of the rack on the pinion in such a way that it protrudes 50 mm from the gearmotor
(13) creating the space required for the limit switch bracket.
5- secure the section in the slot with a screw (or spacer depending on the type of rack chosen (10 - 11 - 12). It is
advisable to tighten the rack retaining screws at the top of the slot so that the gate can be raised and the
necessary clearance between the rack and pinion maintained should the gate lower.
6- continue fitting the rack, aligning the sections one after another; to properly secure the sections, use a piece of
rack of about 150 mm to allow for tooth timing (14). Once the last section has been secured, cut off the
protruding part with a saw.
7- when all the sections have been fitted, manually carry out various gate opening and closing manoeuvres to
check that it slides smoothly without friction.
8- lower the operator by turning the 4 adjusting screws A(8) and lock the gearmotor leaving a clearance of 2 mm
between the pinion and the rack (15) to ensure that the weight of the gate does not negatively affect the gearmotor
shaft.
FITTING THE LIMIT SWITCHES
Each automated device kit for sliding gates contains two limit switches: one to identify the stopping point of the gate
during opening and
the other one to identify the stopping point of the gate during
Each limit switch is supplied with the magnet already fitted, identified by the letter "O" for opening and "C" for closing
(18-21)
.
UNLOCKING DEVICE
If the gate needs to be operated manually, insert the triangular key provided in the dedicated seat on the gearmotor
(22) and turn it anticlockwise. Manually open or close the gate. To relock the gearmotor, fully turn the triangular key
clockwise. Manually and carefully move the gate until it locks.
Should you wish to replace the unlocking device provided on the gearmotor with an unlocking device with
personalised key, proceed as follows:
1- remove the triangular unlocking key (if inserted).
2- with a star-tip screwdriver undo the screw inside the triangular key unlocking device (23).
3- remove the unlocking device (24 - 25).
4- take the unlocking device with personalised key and fit the two springs in their housings (make sure that the
key is in horizontal position - 26).
5- Fit the new device in its seat, then press and turn the key 90° anticlockwise (27). Secure the device with the
dedicated pins in the two side holes, exercising slight pressure for better coupling (28).
