INSTALLATION OF THE TOOTH RACK
A
ATTENTION!
Regulate the operator horizontal positioning so that the pinion matches the tooth rack for the
entire width of the tooth.
B
• Place the tooth rack so that, moving manually the leaf all
along the rail, the distance between the pinion and the
tooth rack is constantly at ~2mm. A fine vertical adjustment
can be performed acting on the 4 grub screws (remember
to keep the motor base horizontal with respect to the
ground).
INSTALLATION EXAMPLE OF TOOTH RACK M/16 - UP TO 400Kg
Tooth rack in nylon PA66 charged with fiberglass. Fiberglass is used as reinforcement and increases the rack robustness.
• Juxtapose the tooth rack bars, each 340mm long, so that the complete "gate + op sliding plates" width is covered.
Fix the bars using self-tapping M6 screws, not supplied.
• Upon completion of the installation, vertically adjust the rack position through its slots, so that, moving manually the leaf all
along the rail, the distance between the pinion and the tooth rack is constantly at ~2mm.
INSTALLATION EXAMPLE OF STEEL TOOTH RACK M/14
• Juxtapose the tooth rack bars, each 1m long, so that the complete "gate + op sliding plates" width is covered,
eventually cutting the last bar to the right size.
• Weld the spacers supplied with the tooth rail to the leaf, and then apply the rail so that the spacers pass through the slots
on the rail itself.
• Fix the tooth rack to the spacers using the supplied bolts.
• Upon completion of the installation, vertically adjust the rack position through its slots, so that, moving manually the leaf all
along the rail, the distance between the pinion and the tooth rack is constantly at ~2mm.
