inside opening – installation with closed gate

Outside opening – installing with open gate (max 90°)
Warning ! With outside opening. it is imperative to install a blinker on pillar for security reasons.
For an external opening, it will be necessary to manufacture a metal part in order to offset the motors. it is then IMPERATIVE to respect the dimensions of installation indicated in the table.

Emergency release
In case of power failure or to program your automatic gate, you can manually unlock the engines:
Under the gate. Insert the hex wrench for unlocking and then turn anti- clockwise 180 degrees. You can now open the gate by hand.
To lock again the engine, insert the hex wrench for locking and then turn clockwise 180 degrees.

Permanently attach the label for the manual disconnection device to the operating element of this device.

Motor fixing
Before placing the arm on the gate, unlock the arm (C3) and take out the tub from the cylinder. Then, retract the tube by 3 cm (this ensures that the gate is locked when closed).

TIP
If you have problems unlocking your motor, you can use a battery. Simply connect the white and yellow motor wires, one way or the other following the polarity to operate the motors.

  1. Fix the first bracket to the pillar. Position the automation in the bracket, then place the screw and nut.
  2. Assemble the second bracket with the other side of the automation and screw the bracket to the closed gate.

Make sure arms are fixed in horizontal position especially in those positions:

  1. Gate in« CLOSE» position
  2. Gate in« OPEN» position
  3. Gate at« 45° angle» position

Prior to weld the bracket on the gate leaf (if necessary), cover the gate opener to prevent damages from sparks.
