3.3 Preliminary installation work and masonry
for anchor plate
Identify approximately the place of each component and
proceed as follows:
a)
Dig the foundation pit for the gear motor whilst considering
the anchor plate dimensions. Give an extra 5cm area extra
on each side. Pay attention to measurements shown in Fig 2.
b)
Provide one or more ducts for the electrical cables so that
they can easily go through the purpose fabricated hole in
the gear motors anchor plate. Pay attention to the plate’s
orientation: hole for cables routing on the side of the gate
(see Fig. 3).
c)
Set concrete into the pit. Ensure this is level and smooth out
the surface. Wait for the concrete to get solidify (this may
take a few days).
d)
Insert the cables ducting to the hole in the anchor plate and
fix the plate to the concrete using suitable plugs.
e)
Cut the cable ducts about 3cm above the anchor plate
level and route the cables for accessories and electrical
mains wiring as shown in Fig. 2 diagram.
Ensure the cables are at least 30-50cm out from the ducting
to allow easy wiring to the control panel.
3.4 Installation of the gear motor
a)
Lift up the motor cover and insert the four grub screws in the
motor’s base. The grub screws have to protrude from the
underside of the base for about 20mm (Fig. 4).
b)
Insert the M10 screws with the washers and nuts provided in
the two loops of the motor base (Fig. 5).
c)
Route the electrical cables in the purpose fabricated hole
of the motor base (Fig. 6) and gently lower the motor base
onto the anchor plate.
d)
Move the M10 screws in the loop’s centre.
e)
Use a spirit-level to make sure that the gear motor is
perfectly level (Fig. 7), if it is not adjust the four grub screws
accordingly and then tighten the M10 screws. Apply the
lock-nuts on both sides of the motor base.
f)
Release the gear motor for manual operation as illustrated
in section 6 of this manual.
