•
Open the gate completely.
•
Use the pencil provided to mark the position of the rack.
If the pencil makes a mark above the brace, the
rack provided us not suitable for your gate.
A low-fastening rack (ref. 2401294) must be used.
Please contact Somfy.
•
With one hand, hold the pencil in the notches provided
on the motor and with the other hand, slide the gate to
mark the fastening height of the rack.
•
Position the rack by aligning the top of
the rack with the line drawn in pencil.
•
Fasten the first element of the rack at
the top of the oblong holes, beginning at
the le-hand side of the gate.
•
Install and fasten the other items in the
same way, interlocking them with the
others.
•
By aligning the top of the rack with
the line drawn in pencil, the required
2 mm clearance between the rack
and pinion is obtained.
•
If the fastening points are too close
to the edge of the brace: fasten the
rack at the centre of the oblong
holes.
