PRELIMINARY CHECKS AND IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTES FOR INSTALLATION
FIXING THE GEARMOTOR AND RACK
Decide the position of the motor, depending on whether the installation is right-hand (R) or left-hand (L).
Allow a minimum gap between the base of the motor and the end of the rack. In right-hand (R) installations, the motor
must be retracted by at least 20 mm to allow the magnetic limit switch to be fitted.
Before fixing the plate, make sure that:
- the surface is level and solid enough for effective mounting
- the passage for the electric wiring is on the correct side (fig.D)
- the base is perpendicular to the direction of travel (fig.D)
- the distance from the leaf allows the pinion to be correctly aligned with the rack (fig.D)
- the height allows the pinion and rack to mate correctly
- the gate can be released smoothly (fig.D)
- the 4 nuts provided have been fitted underneath the square holes.
For new installations where no solid base is available, a CPEVO foundation plate (optional) can be used, sunk into the
concrete or welded to existing structures (fig. E).
This replaces the plate supplied and must be positioned considering the factors already listed above.
Place the geared motor on the plate and fit the four screws (10, fig. A) in the slotted holes that allow horizontal adjustment
if necessary and if necessary use the 4 stud bolts (9, fig A) to correct the height and/or levelling of the motor.
For details on fixing the rack, follow the manufacturer's instructions. We generally recommend:
- the rack must have a M4 module and be specified to support the weight of the gate.
- the joints must not create jolts during gate travel.
- fix a piece of rack temporarily with clamps (fig. F) if it is difficult to achieve an even pitch at the joints.
- some models of rack can be installed with screws, using extra-long holes; in this case, it is useful to subdivide the
margin of adjustment by placing the screws in the middle of the slots.
Once all adjustments and checks are complete, screw down the 4 screws (10, fig. A) and fit the covers (5).
Warning! We consider correct mating of the rack and pinion as fundamentally important.
They must be as centrally aligned as possible and above all there must always be a minimum clearance to
prevent abnormal loads on the pinion. Release the motor and ensure that the system runs evenly through the
entire travel stroke.
If wear on the structure has created sagging which cannot be compensated for easily, the parts should be
overhauled.
