CHAPTER 2: MOTOR INSTALLATION
2.1 BEFORE STARTING
Check that the gate is equipped with sturdy support rails
Check that the rail is anchored securely to the ground
Fit two sturdy mechanical stops at the two ends of the rail
Check that the gate runs smoothly along the rail
The installation of the mechanical end stops for gate opening and closure is necessary for
system safety purposes and therefore this operation must be performed before proceeding with
the installation of the control unit.
2.2 INSTALLING THE BASE PLATE
35 mm
2.2A
Screw the two nuts onto the bolts, until they are
positioned 35 mm from the end of the thread
Fit the J bolts through the holes in the base plate
Screw the other two nuts onto the J bolts without
tightening
2.2B
Dig a hole and place the base plate (fastened to the
bolts) inside it, along with the cable carrier hose
Position the base plate at the heights specified,
fastening it so that it stays flat
95 mm
75 mm
2.2C
Cast concrete to secure the unit to the ground, ensuring all the
base plate parts are kept clean and the two nuts are out of the
concrete completely.
Wait for the concrete to harden, then remove the two nuts
CAUTION:
If the motor is located in an area prone to flooding, the base plate must be positioned high
enough to stop the water reaching the motor
