4. INSTALLING THE AUTOMATED SYSTEM
4.1 PRELIMINARY CHECKS
To ensure safety and an efficiently operating automatic system,
make sure the following conditions are observed:
• when moving, the beam must not, on any account, meet
any obstacles or aerial power cables.
• the soil must permit sufficient stability for the foundation plinth.
• there must be no pipes or electrical cables in the plinth
excavation area.
• if the barrier body is exposed to passing vehicles, install, where
possible, adequate means of protection against accidental
impact.
• check if an efficient earth plate is available for connection to
the upright.
4.2. MASONRY FOR FOUNDATION PLATE
• assemble the foundation plate as shown in figure 5.
• make a foundation plinth as shown in fig.6 (referred to clayey
soil).
• wall the foundation plinth as shown in fig.6, providing one or
more sheaths for routing electrical cables.
• using a spirit level, check if the plate is perfectly horizontal.
• wait for the cement to set.
• unscrew the 4 upper nuts, which will be used later on to
secure the upright.
