PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS
The leaf must be fixed firmily on the hinges to the pillars, must not be flexible during the
movement and must move without frictions.
Before the installation of KING 24V, verify all dimensions etc.
There’s no need for any modification, if the gate is like that shown in Fig. 1.
Gate features must be uniformed with the standards and laws in force.
The gate
can be automated only if it is in a good condition and its conditions comply with the EN
12604 norm.
- The gate leaf does not have to have a pedestrian opening. In the opposite case it
is necessary to take the appropriate steps, in accordance with EN 12453 norm (for
instance; by preventing the operation of the motor when the pedestrian opening is
opened, by installing a safety microswitch connected with the control panel).
- No mechanical stop shall be on top of the gate, since mechanical stops are not safe
enough.

EN12453 regulation - Appendix A.
E: Photocells, like code ACG8026 (To apply every 60÷70cm for all the height of the
column of the gate up to a maximum of 2,5m - EN 12445 point 7.3.2.1)
EMERGENCY RELEASE
To move the gate manually it is necessary to release the operator inserting the special
key and turning it 2 times in the anti-clockwise sense (Fig. 3).
In order to carry out the manual operation of the gate leaf the followings must be checked:
- That the gate is endowed with appropriate handles;
- That these appropriate handles are placed so to avoid safety risks for the operator;
- That the physical effort necessary to move the gate leaf should not be higher than 225
N, for doors/gates for private dwellings, and, 390N for doors/gates for commercial and
industrial sites ( values indicated in 5.3.5 of the EN 12453 norm).
FIXING THE ACTUATOR ATTACHMENT TO THE COLUMN
To obtain a correct movement of the leaf gate it is necessary to respect the measures.
In case an iron pillar is available, weld the bracket straight to it.
In case you need to fix the bracket onto a concrete pillar, use the fixing plate as shown
in picture 4, to be fastened with 4 Fischer screws of Ø 8 mm.
In the case you have a wall parallel with the open gate, you must provide a niche in which
to place the operator.
FIXING THE ACTUATOR ATTACHMENT TO THE GATE
Before inserting the pin into the gate attachment, grease thoroughly.
Weld the base at the right height (Fig. 6, 7).
Fix the KING 24V and try several times to open and to close the gate, controlling that the
operator does not touch the moving gate.
