5 – FRONT MOUNTING BRACKET
5.1 How to determinate the position where to install the front mounting bracket
Warning:
telescopic actuators are supplied with telescopic tube are provided with totally retracted piston, therefore
the fixing position of the front bracket to the gate must be determined with the gate in open position.
resume of telescopic actuators models:
HC312; HC412; HC512; HC612; SW400T; EVOT900; EVE900T (+ corresponding 24V versions)
NON telescopic actuators are provided with the fixing pin plate positioned to the front, therefore the fixing
position of the front bracket to the gate must be determined with the gate in closed position.
resume of NON telescopic actuators models:
HC418; HC518,HC618, SW400; EVO900; EVE900 (+ corresponding 24V versions)
5.2 Fix the front bracket to the gate
- The actuator must be fastened to the port fixing bracket, keep it perfectly horizontal,
- bring the actuator to the gate leaf and identify the fixing point of the front plate to the wing gate.
- Mark middle of front bracket slots on the gate wing.
- Fix the bracket on the gate. Use bolts anchors or screws suitable for the gate ( wood/ iron/...). It ‘also
possible to weld the bracket to the wing of the gate.
- Fasten the actuator to the bracket. Fix it with the pin and seal ring

6. MANUAL RELEASE
The actuators are equipped with a release system which allows the manual handling of the gate in case of
emergency.
The release system is operated through the use of three-sided key that must be inserted into the triangular
slot.
Turn of about 40 ° up to the stop in a counterclockwise direction. The engines will be unlocked and the
doors will be moved maualmente.
The reverse operation will restore the automatism traction.
Warning! perform the manual release only once the actuator is installed to the gate.
- for EVE actuators see page 19
- for “HC” actuators see page 20
- for “SW” & EVO actuators see page 21
For “EVE” acuators the optional “ EVE LOCK” manual release key protected accessory is also available.
see page 19 fig. 15B
For “SW & EVO acuators the optional “ SW LOCK” manual release key protected accessory is also
available. see page21 fig.26B
7 - MECHANICAL LIMITS
It is reminded that,with exhemption in case of use of actuators featured with integrated mechanical or
electrical limits, it is mandatory to install mechanical gate stop limits to be firmly placed to the
ground in correspondance to gate closed and open position. ( see page 4) The gate operator stops
running by amperometric detection when the door detects and presses on the mechanical stop.
FC actuator versions are equipped with integrated mechanical limits: checkpage 18 technical data table.
for FC actuator versions, where the on-board limit is provided, it is not mandatory to have gate stops fixed
to the ground.
7.1 on board mechanical limits adjustment ( for FC actuator’s versions only)
- Release the actuator
- Manually place the gate wing in the open desired position. hold the gate in the desired position.
- Loosen the on-board mechanical stop screw with an Allen key
- Slide the on-board mechanical stop along the large screw until it goes into contact with the nut screw (or
sliding shoe plate)
- stop & firmly tighten the limit switch by fastening the grains using an Allen key.
- you can repeat the same procedure to adjust the second limit and set it for the gate leaf closed position.
7.2 on board electric limits adjustment (for EVE series in the “FCA” versions only)
Models: EVE in the “FCA” versions are equipped with 2 electric limits. To adjust the position of the limit
switches use a flat screwdriver through the holes positioned in the front of the actuator. By turning the
screws, you will adjust the electric lim it along the stroke of the rod. The limits position is indicated on the
side of the actuator by special marker
8. FINAL CONTROL OF CORRECT INSTALLATION
Once the actuator is installed , it is recommendetd to check that it is set perfectly horizontal and is well
balanced.
- Unlock the actuator and perform a manual maneuver to verify that there are no points of greatest friction
along the stroke.
-The gate wing must move without effort.
- The gate wing must stop on the mechanical gate limit (or, where provided, on the o- board limits)
9. MAINTENANCE
The actuators do not require any maintenance.
Only as a precautionary measure and in case of intensive use you should check the integrity of the
electrical cable connected to the motor
WARNING: NEVER USE GREASE LUBRICATE THE MECHANICAL PARTS!
