5.1 Preliminary checks
Before actually installing the gate operator, your are required to:
• Check that the leaf is rigid and compact and that the rollers are in good working order and properly greased
• The gate track must be firmly set into the ground, above ground along its entire length and free of any foreign objects
(debris) that may hamper the gate's movement
• The top non-pinch rollers must not cause any friction
• See to installing physical stops at fully-opened and fully-closed positions and the power supply line trench as per the
standard installation
• Make sure that the spot were the operator is mounted is located in an area that is protects it from any impacts, and that
the mounting surface be solid
• See to installing a suitable all-pole disconnector switch, with power isolation contacts more than 3mm apart from each
other
• Connections inside of the casing made to provide continuity to the protection circuit are allowed, as long as they
have additional isolation compared to other internal conductive parts
• Set up suitable tubing and trenching to allow for electrical cables to pass, making sure they are free from any potential
mechanical damage.
