16. Mounting of the operator
Note: The mounting of the operator is absolutely easy. Nevertheless you
should carefully read the mounting instructions before starting the mounting.
This prevents you from making any mistake and allows you to save time and
to avoid trouble. The manufacturer cannot assume any liability for any dam-
age of the operator which results from an incorrect mounting.
In order to make sure that the operator works without any difficulty a smooth-
running gate without stabilizers is required. The hinges should be free of
clearance. This operator is not appropriate for gates exposed to a heavy
wind load.
Signalling lines may not exceed the length of 30 m. As soon as the length of
the cable exceeds 5 m you have to use a shielded cable.
Measure the dimension A and B (see page 16) according
to the pile and fix the sheathing of the pile to the pile it-
self.
(The sheathings can be welded or screwed. If the
sheathing is screwed, you have to choose anchor bolts
which do not loosen when the operator is active. The
best solutions are adhesive shear connectors).
The distance from the floor to the bottom edge of the
sheathing of the pile has to amount to at least 100 mm.
Now fix the sheathing of the gate wing to the closed gate in such a way that
the dimension C (see page 16, point 15
“dimensions/mounting dimensions“)
is not neglected. In order to do so turn the driving rod as long as the dimen-
sion C is reached. Check the horizontal alignment of the operator.
