Installation of Rack (see Fig.6)
Fix the three nuts (in the same package with rack) on the rack element.
Lay the first piece of rack on the gear and weld the first nut on the gate.
Move the gate manually, checking if the rack is resting on the gear, and weld the second
and the third nut.
Bring another rack element near to the previous one. Move the gate manually and weld the
three nuts as the first rack, thus proceeding until the gate is fully covered.

Magnets for limit switch
Install the magnet as shown in Fig.7 and Fig.8 below. The magnet and limit switch are used to
control the position of the gate.
When the magnet is installed, release the gear clutch and push the sliding gate manually to
pre-determine the position. Weld the magnet bracket to the rack and then tighten the gear clutch.
The lower bracket is for open position and higher bracket is for close position. Finally adjust the
magnet to the proper position by moving the gate with the motor. The magnet should be
10~15mm away from the magnetic limit switch. If it is too far away, the switch will fail to work.
Adjust the position of the magnetic limit switch until the positions of the opening and closing
meet the requirement.
