4.1 PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Before starting the installation work, check the condition of the product
components, the suitability of the chosen gate opener model and the
suitability of the intended installation environment:
• Ensure that all material used is in perfect condition and fit for purpose.
• Make sure that the mechanical structure of the gate is suitable for
automation. This product cannot be used to automate a gate unless the
gate is already in good working order and safe and it cannot remedy
defects caused by incorrect installation or lack of maintenance of the gate.
• Check the stated operating limits.
• Move the gate leaves manually in both directions to ensure the force
required is constant throughout the full range of movement.
• Move the gate leaves manually to any position then release them to
check that they remain stationary.
• Check that the area in which the operator is to be mounted is compatible
with the size of the unit and make sure there is sufficient clearance for
the full movement of the arm.
• Ensure that there is sufficient space around the operator to perform the
manual release procedure.
• Ensure that the surfaces on which the devices are to be mounted are
solid and able to provide a secure anchorage.
• Ensure that all devices to be installed are in a protected location and
such as to minimize the risk of accidental impact.
4.2 OPERATING LIMITS
Before starting the installation work, make sure the operator is correctly sized
in relation to the dimensions and length of the gate leaves and within the
limits of the values given in the chapter "Product technical specifications":
For installation purposes, the minimum width of the gate pillar is 370 mm.
The operator arm must be secured to the gate leaf in a sufficiently robust
position (e.g. on the gate frame).
4.3 INSTALLATION
4.3.1 INSTALLATION
With reference to FIG. 1, (with the aid of the table) measure dimension "A"
and find guideline dimension "B":
• Check that the arm has sufficient operating clearance to complete the
opening movements (dimensions C and E). (FIG. 2).
• Referring to FIG. 3, drill 4 holes of suitable diameter in relation to the type
of anchor bolts used to fix plate I.

• Comply with the minimum dimension of 120 mm required to avoid
installing the operator too close to the ground (FIG. 3).
• Secure the "L" shaped operator support plate.
• Drill two holes for fixing the articulated arm, complying with the value of
dimension B shown in FIG. 1 and ensuring alignment (dimension 62
mm) with the operator bracket shown in (FIG. 3).
• Secure the plate to the articulation.
• If the areas of fixing are too insubstantial or insufficiently sturdy, they
must be reinforced.
• Bring the gate leaf to the fully closed position (FIG. 4).
• Remove the operator cover (the cover is supplied loose, without fixing
screws) (FIG. 5).
• Secure the operator to the bracket with the nuts and bolts supplied;
(FIG. 6). The figure shows the operator installed for a right-hand leaf. For
a left-hand leaf rotate the operator through 180°.
• Assemble arm 1 to arm 2 as shown in FIG. 7A, for a right-hand leaf, and
in 7 B for a left-hand leaf.
• Secure the arms to the drive shaft as shown in FIG. 8.
• Fix the arm to the articulated bracket using bushing, washer, nut and
bolt (FIG. 9).
• Check that the bracket and arm are perfectly level.
• Adjust the limit stop as described in heading 4.4.2.
4.3.2 INSTALLATION OF LIMIT SWITCHES
If the cover is fitted, remove it as shown in FIG. 5
• Bring the gate leaf to its fully closed position (FIG.10).
• Rotate the lower cam until causing the lower switch to trip (FIG. 11).
• Lock the cam by tightening the screw.
• Bring the gate leaf to its fully open position (FIG. 12).
• Rotate the upper cam until causing the upper switch to trip (FIG. 13).
500
• Lock the cam by tightening the screw.
• Connect the limit switches to the electronic board located at the top of
the operator, as described in chapter 5 "ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS".
• Assemble the housing and release lever as shown in FIG. 14.
4.4.3 OPERATOR MANUAL RELEASE
Perform the manual release procedure when the gate is to be opened
manually. Activation of the release system may result in uncontrolled
movements of the gate in the presence of imbalance or mechanical faults.
• Open the front hatch and insert the supplied key (FIG. 15).
• Turn the key clockwise through 90°. Grasp the release lever and turn it
as far as it will go (FIG.16). This action serves to disengage the operator
pinion thereby allowing the gate to be opened manually.
• Do not swing the gate leaf with force but rather accompany it through its
full movement (FIG. 17).
• The key cannot be removed from the lock until the release lever is
returned to its initial position.
• To resume motorized control of the gate, bring the release lever to its
initial locked position (FIG. 18), then remove the key and stow it in a safe
place that is known only to persons authorized to use the gate (FIG. 19).
5 PREPARATION FOR ELECTRICAL
CONNECTIONS
WARNING! To connect to the network, use a multipolar cable provided by
regulations by the book's unit.
• Perform the manual release as illustrated in heading 4.4.3.
• Remove the operator cover upwards.
• Connect the yellow/green wire (earth) to the terminal eye as shown in
the figure (FIG. 20) (for models of class I).
• Route the wires to the electronic board located at the top of the operator
(FIG. 21).
6 TESTING
Each part of the automation system, e.g. safety edges, photocells,
emergency stop, etc. must be tested; follow the procedures shown in
the instruction manuals supplied with the devices in question. Perform the
following sequence of operations for testing of CONDOR 500:
• Check that all the prescriptions in this manual have been followed
scrupulously, with special attention to the matters set down in
chapter 1 "PRESCRIPTIONS".
• Using the supplied control or stopping devices (key selector switch,
pushbuttons or radio transmitters), perform gate opening, closing
and stopping tests and make sure the gate responds correctly to the
various commands.
