PRESENTING THE AUTOMATISM
It is necessary to make a distinction between two motorization
types:
1 -
reversing motor =
2 -
non reversing motor =
Consequently we suggest installing the electric lock in two cases:
1
-
the motor is of the reversing type and wing length exceeds
st
1.6 metres
2
-
irrespective of the type of motor, if the wing is very long and
nd
consequently subject to oscillation during the opening and
closing manoeuvres.
Upon request the ZIP gearmotor can be provided with limit switch-
es inside the motor.
CONSIDERATIONS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION
The system you have chosen brilliantly resolves all the most com-
mon problems that may arise in the residential type installations
but there are just a few suggestions we would like to make:
1. Install the gear motor as near as possible to the gate you wish
to automatize; never install it anywhere-it would hinder open-
ing.
2. Since the length of the articulated arm determines the fixing
point of the bracket for hooking to the gate, we suggest that:
-
keeping the length of the part of the arm connected to the
motor at least two or three centimetres longer than its mini-
mum length;
-
keeping the length of the part of the arm connected to
the gate just a few centimetres shorter than its maximum
length.
3. Before fixing the bracket try and move the gate manually (with
the gearmotor disconnected) and see whether or not the auto-
mation can open to the extent required.
Note: for complete safety, the mechanical stops with rubber
cap (floor stops) must be fitted in opening and closing of the
gate, as shown in fig. 13 and in fig. 14.
ANCHORING THE PLATE (fig. 3)
To secure them use expansion bolts (with brickwork pillar) or bore
and tap (if the plate is joined to a metal structure).
FIXING THE BRACKET FOR HOOKING TO THE GATE
(fig. 4)
Use self-threading screws to fix the bracket where established ac-
cording to the selection "Considerations prior to installation".
INSTALLING AND ANCHORING THE GEARMOTOR
The arm is of the articulated type so it is necessary, during instal-
lation, to determine the correct position so that the jointed arm and
rod with boss form an <170° angle when both wings are closed.
This is better explained in fig. 5 and in fig. 6. Unlock the gearmotor
to facilitate operations.
After having fixed the anchoring plate and bracket, proceed as fol-
lows:
1_ anchor the gearmotor to the plate using 4 M6x120 hexagonal
head screws, 4 washers Ø 6x12x1,2 and 4 M6 high self-locking
nuts as shown in the drawing;

2_ to fasten, make use of the 4 through holes on the gearmotor
aluminium case; place the washer between the nut and the mo-
tor;
3_ secure the rod with boss to the motor output shaft, by fixing
a bolt; make sure the rod is firmly secured and cannot come
away accidentally during use;
4_ with the screw and nut secure the rod with holes to the bracket
fixed to the gate wing;
5_ after passing the cables for the electrical connection, using the
holes on the plate, put the casing in position and secure it with
the 2 M6x40 screws as shown in fig. 7 and in fig. 8.
MANUAL UNLOCK (fig. 9 - fig. 10)
Note: Do not force the Allen key (A fig. 10) but move the leaf door
at the same time to make sure it has been released.
ELECTRICAL CONNECTION TO THE MOTOR
•
Connect, making use of the free hole in the anchoring plate.
•
Protect the cables with a flexible sheath.
•
Minimum cable section should be1,5 mm².
•
By reversing connections, the motor should reverse rotating
direction.
Place the control unit (external versions) in the im-
mediate vicinity of the
Be careful not to run cables for auxiliary devices in-
side raceways housing other cables supplying pow-
er to large loads or lights with electronic
In the event control pushbuttons or indicator lights
are installed inside homes or offices several metres
from the actual control unit, it is advisable to decou-
ple the signal by means of a relay in order to avoid
induced
interference.
GENERAL ADVICE
-
Install a gate safety system that complies with current regula-
tion.
-
Choose short routes for cables and keep power cables sepa-
rate from control ones.
-
Install the control card inside a waterproof box.
-
Earth the geared motor properly.
-
Please refer to current regulations when setting the geared mo-
tor's maximum torque.
-
We advise you to install an outdoor switch, in compliance with
European standards on the issue of safety, turn the electricity
off when servicing the gate.
-
Check that each single device installed is efficient and effec-
tive.
-
Affix easily readable signs, warning about the presence of a
motorized gate.
-
Although the gearmotor can be equipped with all the safety
devices, we warmly recommend you keep all the devices that
control the opening of the gate and that can accidentally be
used without supervision, well out of the reach of children or
unskilled persons.
USE
The ZIP gear motor has been designed to move vertical swing
gates with leafs no longer than 3500 mm.
It is absolutely forbidden to use the device for any other purposes
or under circumstances different from those mentioned.
The electronic unit (that must have the built-in electric clutch) nor-
mally makes it possible for you to choose from:
automatic:
a command pulse will open and shut the gate
semiautomatic:
a command pulse will open or shut the gate
In case you operate the gate manually you first have to "unlock"
it. Remember that this is an automatic device which is powered by
electricity, consequently use it with care. In particular, remember:
•
do not touch it with wet hands and/or wet or bare feet
•
turn the electricity off before opening the control box and/or
