“TROUBLE-SHOOTING” table
MALFUNCTION CAUSES / SOLUTIONS
When the opening or closing
command is activated the gate
leaf fails to move and the opera-
tor’s electric motor fails to start.
The operator is not receiving correct power supply. Check all connections, fuses, and the
power supply cable conditions and replace or repair if necessary. If the gate does not close
check the correct functioning of photocells.
When the opening command
is activated, the motor star-
ts but the gate leafs fail to
move
Check that the unlocking system is closed (see F9, page 32)
Check the electronic force adjustment device and the mechanical clutch
ake sure that the motor does not push in the opposite direction, the limit switch electrical
connections might be reversed
The gate moves by fits and
starts, it is noisy, it stops at
half run or it does not start
Make sure that nothing hinders the gate wheels movement and the slide in which they roll;
There always must be backlash between rack and pinion; make sure the rack is accurately
positioned.
The power of the gearmotor may be insufficient for the characteristics of the gate’s wing;
check the choice of model whenever requiredh
If the operator attachment to the gate bends or is badly fastened, repair and/or buttress it.
