3.2 INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS PERMISSIBLE SUBSTRATES The A952 can be mounted on the following materials: concrete, concrete and masonry (comparable to concrete), solid brick (holes <15%), wood, steel SUBSTRATE CONDITION Before installation, you should carefully check the condition of the existing substrate that the system will be anchored to.
Anchoring to a masonry lintel is not allowed since the strength of the dowels are lower than those of calcu- lation; if brick platbands are present, a special counterplate should be anchored to the masonry and tested. A952 532310 - Rev.A...
A shape marked on the plate indicates the mounting position of the gearmotor, which should be secured using the 4 holes shown: The gearmotor should be mounted after the plate has been installed. A952 532310 - Rev.A...

Before removing the arm, move the leaf slightly away from the closed position, if it is a closing spring, or from the open position, if it is an opening spring, and fully tighten the screw. Only remove the screw after the arm has been reconnected to the operator. 27 A952 532310 - Rev.A...
3.12 ADJUSTING THE SPRING The A952 is fitted with a spring that opens or closes the door (according to the application) in the absence of mains power. The spring is factory set to the minimum preload. According to the characteristics of the door (e.g. friction, seals, air currents), the preload can be adjusted to obtain the appropriate force for the movement.
The KICK LOCK function can be useful, for example, to make it easier to complete the closing stroke if the seals are hard or when the electric lock engages. The KICK LOCK function can ONLY be activated in closing spring applications. Set the selector J8 as shown in 32. A952 532310 - Rev.A...

■ ADJUSTING THE POINT AT WHICH THE SOFT DRAW / KICK LOCK TRIGGERS The A952 is fitted with a micro switch that determines that point at which the SOFT DRAW or KICK LOCK function is activated (according to the setting of selector J8).
3.14 ADJUSTING THE INTEGRATED MECHANICAL OPENING STOP The A952 is fitted with an integrated mechanical stop that limits the opening stroke. 1. Open the door to the position at which you want the internal stop to operate. 2. Turn the screw in the cam according to the direction of rotation of the gearmotor shaft in order to reach the position, as shown in 34.
3. Press the selector into the rectangular opening so that position 1 (indicated by the line) is facing upwards. 4. Apply the sticker with the number 1 facing upwards. 5. Plug the cable into the "SEL" connector (41) 38 A952 532310 - Rev.A...
3. Connect the wires of the mains power cable (phase / neutral / earth) following the instructions on the label. 4. Secure the wires using one of the clamps provided. 5. Install the terminal board plastic cover. 40 A952 532310 - Rev.A...
