PRELIMINARY WARNINGS
Check that the gate structure is in conformity with the regulations in force and that leaf movement is linear without
friction.
Preliminary checks:
• Check that the gate structure is sufficiently robust. In any case, check that the weight and dimensions of the
gate fall within the limits of use of the operator.
• Check that the leaf can be moved manually without force (points of greatest friction) for the entire travel of the
gate during both opening and closing.
• Check that the area where the gearmotor will be fitted is not exposed to flooding. If so, install the gearmotor in a
position raised from the ground.
• If the gate is not a new installation, check the state of wear of all the components, repair or replace the
defective or worn parts and perform any other operations necessary.
The reliability and safety of the automated device is directly dependent on the condition of the gate structure.
INSTALLATION OF THE FOUNDATION PLATE
1- Make the hole for the foundation plate respecting the dimensions (2) and arrange the plate according to the
closing direction of the gate (3 - 4). The hole depth must be at least equal to the length of the fold-down anchors (5).
2- Fit the flexible hoses through which the electric cables will run so that they lead out of the plate (3 - 4) and protrude
from the hole by about 30-40 mm (5).
3- Make sure that the plate is level (5) and start filling the hole with concrete.
4- Wait for the concrete to dry.
5- Run the electric cables (for connection of the accessories and electrical power supply) through the flexible
hoses.
To make it easier to make the electrical connections to the control unit, it is advisable to keep a cable length of 400 mm
from the foundation plate hole (5).
INSTALLING THE GEARMOTOR
1- Remove the gearmotor casing by undoing the screws under the side caps (6).
2- Remove the fastening nuts from the plate pins, position the gearmotor on the foundation plate sliding the pins
into the slots on the casing (7). Make sure that the pinion faces the gate.
3- Make the necessary adjustments to level the gearmotor, raising or lowering it by turning the adjusting screws
A(8). At first hold the gearmotor raised by 2-4 mm and then lower it after having secured the rack (8).
4- Fit the 4 washers and tighten the 4 nuts to secure the gearmotor parallel to the gate (remember to hold the
gearmotor raised by 2-4 mm) (8).
5- It is recommended to maintain the distances (8 - 9 - 15).
