GATE CARE BEFORE OPERATION
Before adapting the machine to the gate, check the sliding, following the
instructions below:
1st Step:
Before installing the operator, check that the gate is in good mechanical
condition, that is, opening and closing properly. Manually open the gate and note
the effort required. This effort should be minimal along the entire length of the
route.
2nd Step:
Close the gate manually and check if the effort exerted was equal to the
previous operation.
The gate must have a strong structure and, as much as possible, non-deformable.
The pulleys must have a diameter consistent with the dimensions of the gate, be in
perfect rolling condition and mounted so that the gate leaf has stability throughout
its movement. We recommend pulleys with a minimum diameter of 120 mm.
The figures below represent the two types of rails and pulleys used. The system that
uses a straight section (Picture A - angle) presents greater friction and consequently
greater wear. The circular section (Picture B) allows for better gate displacement
and less friction for the operator.

3rd Step:
Check that the gate leaf does not get stuck in the opening and closing
movement. The gate’s sliding rail must be perfectly straight, level, periodically free
of any element or dirt that makes it difficult for the pulleys to slide along their
entire length, as shown in the figure below.
INSTALLATION AND FIXING THE OPERATOR
Before installing the operator, remove all unnecessary cables and disable any
equipment or system connected to the electrical network.
EQUIPMENT DIMENSIONS
The perfect functioning of this equipment depends on the instructions contained
in this manual. To secure the equipment, proceed as follows:
1st Step:
Check if the floor is firm enough so that the equipment can be screwed so
that it is level. If you do not comply with the requirement, provide a concrete base,
following the guidelines below:
