PREPARATORY STEPS
CAREFULLY OBSERVE EUROPEAN REGULATIONS EN12445 AND
EN12453 (WHICH REPLACE UNI 8612).
Always check the following:
• Your gate should have a strong and suitable build; no
wickets should be present on the sliding gate.
• The sliding gate should not tilt excessively during its entire
run.
• The gate should be able to slide freely on its guiding
surface without an excessive friction.
• Install both closing and opening limit switches, in order to
prevent the gate going off the guiding surface.
• Remove any manual locks.
• Bring power cable ducts near the bottom of the gate
(diameter 20 / 30 mm) and of the external devices
(photocells, flasher, key selector).
INSTALLATION
• Prepare a cement base raised 40 - 50 mm from the ground
on which the metal plate will be fixed.
• Provide a channel for two hoses that will house the cables
in the main hole (D) on the counter-plate. Such counter-plate
shall be fixed to the ground by means of two anchors next
to the already-made holes (A), or sinking the special fins in
the cement (B).
• Fix the motor on the counter-plate by means of the cage
nuts fitted in the holes (C).
WARNING: insert the gasket in the hole through
which the cables pass, as shown in the picture. Pierce the
gasket in order to let pass the cables to be connected to
the central unit, being careful of narrowing them in order
to avoid the entrance of bugs and small animals.
MOUNTING THE RACK
Release the motor and turn the gate completely open.
Fix all the rack elements to the gate, making sure that they stand
at the same height than the motor pinion.
It is important that the rack be positioned 1 or 2 mm above the
motor pinion, in order to prevent that the motor be damaged
under the weight of the gate.
