WARNING
Starting Force
1. Test the starting force of the gate as per the diagram. Use a pull scale to determine a value(kgF) to get
the gate into motion.
2. Determine the Running Force of the gate by continuing to pull on the scale with just sufficient force to
keep it running and read off the maximum value (kgF) shown on the scale.
3. Where possible determine the gate mass.
4. Ensure that the Starting Force, Running Force and mass of gate are within the operating parameters
shown in the table.
Figure 3 Starting and Running Forces
Ensure that pedestrian gates which are built into the sliding gate can
be secured in the closed position and are provided with at least a
weatherproof normally closed safety switch that is connected to the
IRB or LCK input of the control card.
