8. Adjustment of the mechanical end stops
ATTENTION!
The verification and/or the adjustment of the mechanical end buffering must always
be executed. When the end buffering is not adjusted properly it may cause severe
irreversible damage to some parts of the gate.
The mechanical end buffering is located on the front- and rear support of the guiding
wheels in the under beam. To have access to them the front and the rear of the under
beam must be opened.
8.1 Adjustment of the front mechanical end buffering
If the gate is installed correctly according the
foundation plan, then the front buffer doesn’t
need to be adjusted as the factory default setting
(default 13 cm) will be sufficient.
However if there is some deviation from the
foundation plan, or an obstacle at the rearside
of the gate is preventing the wing opening over
its full course, then adjust according to the
description below.
1. Remove the lower part of
the safety pressure strip
from its aluminum fixation
profile.
2. Remove the front cover
plate from the under beam
by unscrewing the 4 screws
(2 on both sides) of the under beam.
3. Unblock the counter nut. Turn the threaded rod counter-clockwise so that the rubber
stop is coming out of the under beam for 0.5 cm to 1.0 cm. Block the threaded rod
with the counter nut.
ATTENTION!
Do not turn clockwise! The default setting of 13 cm is minimum distance to apply.
4. Put back the cover plate to close the under beam
and tighten the screws with moderate force.
5. Re-fix the rubber profile from the safety pressure
strip on the aluminum profile. To aid the fixation
it is advised to spray some silicone lubricant on
the rubber fixation flaps and the sleeves in the
aluminum profile. Then push the flaps by hand in
the aluminum profile.
