7.9. Mounting the Rack
The rack must be securely mounted to the side of the gate. It must be
parallel with the gate rail and there must be a 2-3mm gap between the
rack teeth and the teeth of the pinion.
The D10 SMART is supplied with
the Pinion Spyder
1
, which greatly
enhances the accuracy and speed of
achieving the 2-3mm gap between
the Pinion and the gate's rack.
Fit the Pinion Spyder onto the Pinion
of the D10 SMART by aligning its
teeth with the gaps between the
teeth of the D10 SMART's Pinion.
Ensure that the D10 SMART Gearbox
is in Manual Override. Refer back to
Section 7.7 - "Manual Override".
Start with the gate either fully-open
or fully-closed.
Slide the D10 SMART back towards
the gate to where the Pinion will sit
just under where the rack will be
xed to the gate.
Rest the rack directly onto the Pinion
Spyder while welding / bolting the
rack into position.
Level the other end of the rack and
x to the side of the gate, as shown
in Figure 45.
