3. INSTALLING THE AUTOMATISM
3.1. Preliminary checks
To ensure safety and efficiency of the automated system,
make sure the following requirements are observed before
installing the system:
• The gate structure must be suitable for automation. The
following are necessary in particular: wheel diameter must be
in proportion to the weight of the gate, an upper track must be
provided, plus mechanical travel stops to prevent the gate
derailing.
• The soil must guarantee a perfect stability of the foundation
plinth.
• There must be no pipes or electric cables in the plinth
excavation area.
• If the gearmotor is located in the vehicle transit or manoeuvre
area, adequate means of protection should be provided
against accidental impact.
• Check if an efficient earthing is available for connection
to the gearmotor.
3.2. MASONRY FOR FOUNDATION PLATE
1- Assemble the foundation plate as shown in figure 05.
2- In order to ensure that the pinion and rack engage correctly,
the foundation plate must be positioned as shown in Fig. 03
(right closing) or Fig. 04 (left closing).
Warning: The hole for the cables on the foundation plate must
always point to the gate, see Fig. 05.
3- After determining the position of the foundation plate, make
a plinth as shown in Fig. 06 and wall the plate, providing
several sheaths for routing the cables. Using a spirit level,
check if the plate is perfectly level. Wait for the cement to set.
4- Lay the electric cables for connection to the accessories
and power supply as shown in diagram of Fig. 02. To facilitate
connections to the control unit, allow the cables to protrude by
at least 45 cm from the hole on the foundation plate.
3.3. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION
1- Remove the cover and position the operator on the
foundation plate, using the supplied washers and nuts. During
this operation, route the cables through the appropriate
openings in the motor body.
2- Adjust the height of the gearmotor and the distance from the
gate, referring to dimensions in Fig.6.
Attention: This operation is necessary to ensure the rack is
correctly secured and to enable any new adjustments.
4- Secure the gearmotor to the plate, tightening the nuts.
