2.3 GENERAL RULES
If the dimensions indicated in table A or B cannot be
achieved, the following must be considered in order to
calculate different measurements:
• To obtain 90° opening of the leaf:
a + b = c
.
• To obtain over 90° opening of the leaf:
a + b < c
.
• Lower
a and b
dimensions will result in higher speeds.
• Limit the difference between
a and b
to within 1.5 inches.
Higher differences will considerably vary gate opening
and closing speed.
• The minimum
Z
dimension is 2 inches (Fig. 4);
• If the pillar dimensions or the position of the hinge
(dimension
d
) do not make it possible to keep dimension
a
at the required size, a niche must be made in the pillar
as shown in Fig. 5.
• Dimension
a
must always be larger than dimension
E
.
For installations that open outward, refer to Section 6.

2 INSTALLATION
2.1 PRELIMINARY CHECKS
To ensure a correctly operating automated system, the
structure of the gate must satisfy the following requirements:
• Leaf length should not exceed “Max Leaf Length”
dimensions in Table 1.
• The gate should have a strong and rigid leaf structure.
• The gate leaves should have a smooth, uniform mo-
vement during the entire length of travel without any
irregular friction.
• Existing hinges should be in good condition.
• Travel limit mechanical stops must be provided.
• The condition of the structure directly influences the
reliability and safety of the automated system.
• The gate must swing level
2.4 INSTALLING THE OPERATOR
Attention
: To avoid compromising operator functionality, use
measurements and dimensions indicated.
1.)
Fasten the rear attachment to a pillar or column
support. Follow the measurements indicated in Tables
A / B. If necessary, modify the length of the supplied
attachment.
• For iron pillars, weld the rear attachment (Fig. 6,
Ref. 2) directly to the pillars.
• For masonry pillars, select one of the following
solutions:
A.) Install an appropriate wall plate and then
accurately weld the rear attachment.
OR
B.) Use screws and expansion plugs to secure the
rear attachment plate (Fig. 6, Ref. a) to the pillar.
Then weld the rear attachment to the plate as
shown in Figure 6.
