1.  Assemble the mounting brackets and anti-vibration spacers 

on the operator as shown in Fig. 8.

2.  Open the cover, remove the securing screws.
3.  Attach the operator to the plate, using the supplied washers 

and nuts as shown in Fig. 9. During this operation, route 
cables through the opening inside the lower half-casing 
of the operator (Fig.10 - Ref. A).

4.  Adjust the height 

and distance from 
the gate as shown 
in Fig 11.

5.  Secure the opera-

tor to the founda-
tion plate, tighten 
nuts as shown in 
Fig. 12.

1.  Place the three threaded 

dowel nuts on the rack 
element, positioning them 
at the top of the slot. In 
this way, the slot play will 
allow any adjustments to 
be made.

2.  Manually move the leaf to 

its closed position.

3.  Lay the first piece of rack 

level on the pinion and weld the threaded dowel nut to the 
gate as shown in Fig. 15.

4.  Move the gate manually, checking that the rack is resting 

on the pinion, then weld the second and third dowel nut.

5.  Place another rack element next to the previous one, use 

a third piece of rack (as shown in Fig. 16) to synchronize 
the teeth of the first two elements.

6.  Move the gate manually and weld the three threaded 

dowel nuts. Proceed as described until the gate is fully 
covered.

INSTALLING THE RACK

4.4.1. 

STEEL RACK TO WELD (Fig. 13)

4.4.2. 

STEEL RACK TO SCREW (Fig. 14)

To access the electronic board, route the cables through the 
appropriate hole, using the supplied rubber cable-clamp. 
Make sure to strip the jacket on all cables so that the clamp 
holds single cables only (Fig.10 - Ref. B).

1.  Manually move the leaf to 

its closing position.

2.  Lay the first piece of rack 

level on the pinion and 
place the spacer between 
the rack and the gate, 
positioning it at the top of 
the slot.

3.  Mark the drilling point on the 

gate. Drill a Ø ¼ inch hole and apply thread with a Ø 5/16 
inch male tap. Screw in the bolt.

4.  Move the gate manually, checking that the rack is resting 

on the pinion. Repeat step 3.
