Please ensure that the motor power cable is not plugged in at any stage before Step 9
Step 7
– Gear Rack & Motor Alignment:
•
See Fig 16 for recommended gear rack mounting height.
•
Insert the key and open the manual release bar to put the motor into manual
mode and check that the motor cog rotates freely by hand (as per Fig 16).
•
Ensure that the gate drive cog has a minimum clearance of 1-2mm along the
entire length of gear rack fitted to the gate (as per Fig 14).
•
Ensure motor cog and gear rack are correctly aligned. Under no circumstances
should the gate motor drive cog carry any weight of the gate. It is the task of the
gate castors or wheels to carry the weight of the gate (as per Fig 15).
•
If the gate doesn’t slide freely by hand, adjust the height of the gear rack
accordingly until the full length of gate slides freely by hand.
