It is important to check the start-up force of the gate before the motor is installed. Place the gate in the fully
closed position. Using a fishing scale, pull the gate open and check the kilogram force required to start the
gate rolling. This is the start-up force.
At no stage while moving the gate must the reading exceed the force shown in the table below.
Start up force table
SOLO = MAX START FORCE UP 10 KG
CONODO = MAX START UP FORCE 15 KG
CONDO AC/DC = MAX START UP FORCE 15 KG
NOTE. A good standard household type gate of 100kg should have a start up force of 1,5 kg—2,5 kg
