  For cable installation, use adequate rigid and/or flexible tubes.

  Always separate the low-voltage accessories connection cables 

from the power supply cables. To avoid possible interference, use 

separate sheathing.

  Provide the power supply line with an omnipolar switch featuring 

a contact opening distance equal to or greater than 3 mm. We 

recommend using a 6 A magnetothermic switch with omnipolar 

switching.

  Always install a differential switch with a 0.03 A threshold upstream 

from the system.

  When preparing the power supply line, always follow national 

system regulations and use a double-insulation cable.

  Securely connect the power supply cable and the accessories 

connection cables in the board terminals area.

3. INSTALLING THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM

3.1. PRELIMINARY CHECKS

To ensure automated system safety as well as its correct operation, before 

proceeding with installation, check that the following conditions are met:

• When in motion, the bar must not encounter obstacles or flying power 

cables.

• The characteristics of the terrain must guarantee sufficient solidity of 

the foundation plinth.

• 

No tubes or electrical cables should be present in the plinth digging area. 

• 

If the barrier body is exposed to vehicle transit, provide for adequate 

protection against accidental impact, when possible.

• Ensure that there is an efficient earth plate for connecting the upright 

profile.

3.2. WALLING THE FOUNDATION PLATE

1. 

Assemble the foundation plate as shown in Fig. 5.

2. 

Set the foundation plinth as shown in Fig. 6.

  The plinth dimensions must be suitable for the terrain type and 

model installed.

3. 

Wall the foundation plate as shown in Fig. 6 and provide for one or 

more sheaths for cable running.

4. 

Use a level to ensure that the plate is perfectly horizontal.

5. 

Wait for the cement to set.

3.3. MECHANICAL INSTALLATION

1. 

Remove the 4 upper nuts from the foundation plate.

2. 

Position the upright on the foundation plate, see Fig. 7, and secure it.

3. 

Prepare the operator for manual operation, as described in paragraph 4.

or

 

left

 

InstallatIon

Depending on installation needs, the automated system can be installed 

on the right or left:

Left-hand  installation : 

Left-hand installation is when, with the barrier 

closed, the bar is on the

 right side

 of the upright, 

looking at the automated system from inside the 

property (door side).

Right-hand  installation :

 Right-hand installation is when, with the barrier 

closed, the bar is on the 

left side

 of the upright, 

looking at the automated system from inside the 

property (door side).

  The automated system is supplied ready for left-hand closing, 

fig. 8 ref. “A”. If the bar closing direction is the desired one, 

go directly to 3.3.2. “Installing the bar”.
