FITTING THE ANCHORING PLATE Set up a foundation frame that is larger than the anchoring plate and sink it into the dug hole. The foundation frame must jut out by 50 mm above ground level. Fit an iron cage into the foundation frame to reinforce the concrete. Fit the bolts into the anchoring plate and tighten them using the nuts.
Page 9
Remove the foundation frame and fill the hole with earth around the concrete block. Remove the nuts from the bolts. Fit the electric cables into the tubes so that they come out about 600 mm.

FASTENING THE RACK If the rack is already set up, the next step should be to adjust the rack-and-pinion coupling distance, otherwise, fasten it: - release the operator; - rest the rack above the operator pinion; - weld or fasten the rack to the gate along its entire length. To assemble the rack modules, use an extra piece and rest it under the joint, then fasten it using two clamps.
FASTENING THE OPERATOR Once adjusting is complete, fasten the gearmotor to the plate using the plates and nuts. ESTABLISHING THE LIMIT-SWITCH POINTS For opening: - open the gate; - fi t the opening limit-switch tab onto the rack until the micro switch activates (spring) and fasten it using the grub screws. Spring ~ 20 mm For closing:...
