It is very important that the barrier be well fixed to the fastening base
as the ground anchors could loosen throughout time due to movement
and vibration and cause damage to the cabinet.

must protrude
(

) from the base plate.
The base plate must be perfectly in square, its surface must be clean
and the four threaded bolts must emerge perpendicularly.
Note:
the cement base should preferably protrude
50 mm
out of the
ground in order to avoid water build up which could damage the appli-
ance.

It is also possible to fasten the barrier to an already existing cement
base as long as the thickness of the base is great enough to guarantee
a strong hold for the rawlplugs.

ASSEMBLING THE STANDARD BOOM (fig. 4-5)
The boom is supplied complete with the following:
- flashing warning leds
- rubber
profile
The boom lights are pre-wired and are fitted with a fast-fitting jack.
1) Pass the wiring cables through the boom holder before fitting the
boom into its seat.

ASSEMBLING THE ARTICULATED BOOM 716/EL3424ASKU (fig.

The boom should be prepared in the same way as shown in the para-
graph
"Assembling the standard boom"
(fig. 5) for the end cap
"K"
and the rubber buffer
"G"
which should be divided into two parts.
1) Fasten the support
"29"
to the upper internal plate of the barrier
in the front position with the door open using the two screws
"31"
ANDRELATIVEWASHERS

2) Position part
"24"
inside the boom holder sleeve over the rotation
pin and fasten down along with bracket
"25"
using the two screws
"4"
.
3) If you wish to shorten the boom it can be done to both the first
part (the part that is inserted into the boom holder) by shortening it
at a distance of
100
to
200
mm
from the end and then shortening
the tie rod
"22"
by the same distance (shorten the chain
"20"
by
moving the chain clip
"16"
), as well as to the end part which can
be shortened by up to
500 mm
.
Once you have completed the above mentioned operations, move
the boom holder to a vertical position and slide the boom completely
in from the top after having loosened the screws

three or
four turns

Assembling the standard
boom
During this stage the boom remains at
90°
as the chain does not
allow greater rotation.
While you are inserting the boom watch out for the threaded tie rod
which protrudes from the inside of the boom as it has to be passed

PART

and then passed through the hole
"P"
and temporarily fastened to the support
"29"
(to fasten it you will
require the two nuts
"28"
one above and one below the support).
Calibrating the articulated boom
:
- fasten down the screws
"Q"
- carry out a closing manoeuvre. Make sure that the boom is hori-
zontal and completely lined up with the rest of the boom.
You should adjust the first part of the boom following the instructions
INTHEPARAGRAPH

tion of the boom
ANDTHENADJUSTTHEHEADOFTHEBOOMBYMEANS
of the nuts

.
Attention: the pull carried out by the tie rod
"27"
(caused by tighten-
ing the nuts) must be slightly greater than the effect of the dropping
of the head of the boom (not very tight).
In fact over tightening will put stress on the chain inside the boom
and cause it to wear rapidly leading to a loss of drag force.
ASSEMBLING THE FIXED SUPPORT POLE (fig. 7)
The fixed support pole is positioned at the head of the boom and func-
tions as a reference point for the closing of the barrier.
When the boom is moving it should never crash into the support pole
but should rest lightly against it instead.
The rubber safety edge normally covers the entire length of the
boom.
If you are using a support pole the buffer should be slid back towards
the boom holder so as to free the space required for the head of the
boom to rest against the support pole.

It is also possible to fix the base of the support to cement base or

MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENT OF THE HORIZONTAL POSITION
OF THE BOOM (fig. 9)
Connect the power to the electronic programmer (page 23) and then
press the closing button so that the boom is stopped by the closing
travel limit micro-switch.
To adjust the horizontal position of the boom you must not alter the
microswitch located under the plate (this microswitch intercepts the
geared reduction lever and stops it at the closed position giving the
maximum deceleration to the boom).
