2_ After removing the terminal board cover, anchor the actuator to
the rear bracket using the screw and nut supplied (see 1 fig.8);
ATTENTION: carefully verify that, when gate is
closed, the actuator's rear do not touch the bracket
(see fig. 8). If so adjust the setting accordingly.
3_ Make sure that the front connector (1 fig.9A) is in the position
shown in fig.9A (at a distance of approx. 1 mm from the closing
mechanical stop). If this is not the case, in order to adjust the
position of the connector, the actuator should be momentarily
powered.
ATTENTION: The actuator can be moved by hand only if it
is installed on the gate and in released position (see para-
graph MANUAL RELEASE).
4_ check the measurement "C" (fig.4);
5_ Assemble the wing connection bracket as shown in fig.10;
6_ 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. 11).
Before going on to the next phase please carry out the following
test:
7_ Release the actuator (see paragraph MANUAL RELEASE)
and manually check if the gate can completely open without
hindrances and stop at the mechanical travel stops as well as
if the leaf moves regularly without any friction.
8_ Carry out the necessary corrective measures and repeat from
point 7. Manually open the gate to the maximum required an-
gle;
9_ using the same method as in point 3, position the fork in the di-
rection of the casings until the wing connection bracket is over
the position marked on the wing.
If the small bracket does cover the position marked it means instal-
lation 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 possible (parameters A and B and the actuator's useful travel
permitting).
10_ fasten the gate mounting bracket in the position indicated
(fig.12), referring to the dimensions shown in fig. 13 and en-
suring the planarity of the assembly.
Note: if the gate structure does not allow a fix brack-
et fastening it is necessary to create a sturdy sup-
porting base in the gate structure.
11_ If not using floor-mounted stops (7 fig.3), move the open-
ing mechanical stops (1 fig.9B) and closing stops (2 fig.9B)
into the position to enable opening of the leaf to the required
angle. To access the fastening dowels of the mechanical
stops (3 fig.9B) the actuator needs to be moved manually
(see para. MANUAL RELEASE). Check the precision of the
setting by performing a manual manoeuvre with the actuator
released, making corrections if necessary.
Note: next settings to increase the stroke of the
acutator WILL NOT be possible, as the fastening
dowels of the mechanical stops (3 fig. 9B) incise the
endless screw, compromising the correct sliding of
the fork.
12_ When a gate operator with electric limit switch is used
(ARM2000F or ARM2000FC), proceed as follows:
ARM2000F: nominal rod stroke is 350 mm; to adjust stroke,
loosen the locking nuts (1 pict. 9C) and set the limit switch to
the required position. Max. adjustment is 50 mm. Once the
adjustment is completed, tighten the locking nuts again (1
pict. 9C).
ARM2000FC: nominal rod stroke is 340 mm; to adjust stroke,
loosen the locking nuts (1 pict. 9D) and set the limit switch to
the required position. Max. adjustment is 50 mm. One the
adjustment is completed, tighten the locking nuts again (1
pict. 9D).
Note: for complete safety, with the models
ARM2000F and ARM2000FC the mechanical stops
with rubber cap (floor stops) must be fitted in open-
ing and closing of the gate (7 fig.3), in order that
they intervene just before the electrical operator's
limit switches.

WIRING THE ACTUATOR
A terminal board is fitted in the rear part of the actuator for the con-
nection of the motor, of any limit switch and for the earthing of the
actuator. (figg.14-15).
Connect the motor and the earthing with reference to fig.14-15 and
to the table.

START-UP
ATTENTION: Cut power before any job on the sys-
tem or on the actuator.
Carefully observe points 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of the SAFETY
GENERAL RULES.
With reference to the indications in fig.3 and in the table (see para-
graph INSTALLATION), set the ducts and carry out the electrical
connections of the control board and of the chosen accessories.
Choose short routes for cables and keep power cables separate
from control cables.
