1) GENERAL SAFETY
WARNING! An incorrect installation or improper use of the product
can cause damage to persons, animals or property.
• The "Warnings" leaflet and the "Instruction booklet" supplied with this
product should be read carefully as they provide important information
about safety, installation, operation and maintenance.
• Scrap packing materials (plastic, cardboard, polystyrene etc) according
to the provisions set out by current standards. Keep nylon or polystyrene
bags out of children's reach.
• Keep the instructions with the technical brochure for future reference.
• This product was exclusively designed and manufactured for the use
specified in the present documentation. Uses not specified in this
documentation could cause damage to the product and can be dangerous.
• The Company declines all responsibility for any consequences resulting
from the product being used improperly or differently from whatever is
specified in the present documentation.
• Do not install the product in an explosive environment.
• The construction components of this product must comply with the
following European Directives: 89/336/CEE, 73/23/EEC (amended by
RL 91/263/EEC, 92/31/EEC and 93/68/EEC). As for all non-EEC
countries, the above-mentioned standards as well as the current national
standards should be respected in order to have a good safety level.
• The Company declines all responsibility for any consequences resulting
from failure to observe Good Technical Practice when constructing
closing structures (door, gates etc.), as well as from any deformation
which might occur during use.
• The installation must comply with the provisions set out by the following
European Directives: 89/336/CEE, 73/23/EEC (amended by RL 91/ 263/
EEC, 92/31/EEC and 93/68/EEC).
• Disconnect the electrical power supply before carrying out any operations
on the plant. Also disconnect any buffer batteries, if fitted.
• Fit an omnipolar circuit breaker or thermal magnetic circuit breaker on
the mains power supply, having a contact opening distance equal to or
greater than 3mm.
• Check that a differential switch with a 0.03A threshold is fitted just before
the power supply mains.
• Check that grounding is carried out correctly: connect all metal parts for
closure (doors, gates etc.) and all system components provided, with an
earth terminal.
• Fit all the safety devices (photocells, electric edges etc.) which are
needed to protect the area from any danger caused by squashing,
conveying and shearing.
• Position at least one light signal device (blinker) where it can be easily
seen, and fix a Warning sign to the structure.
• The Company declines all responsibility with respect to the automation
safety and good operation when other manufacturers' components are
used.
• Only use original parts for any maintenance or repair operation.
• Do not modify the automation components, unless explicitly authorized
by the Company.
• Instruct the product user about the control systems provided and the
manual opening operation in case of emergency.
• Do not allow persons or children to remain in the automation operation
area.
• Keep radio control or other control devices out of children's reach, in
order to avoid unintentional automation activation.
• The user must avoid any attempt to carry out work or repair on the
automation system, but only request assistance from qualified personnel.
• Anything which is not expressly provided for in the present instructions,
is not allowed.
2) GENERAL OUTLINE
A compact sturdy hydraulic piston, available in various versions according
to the user's requirements and type of operation.
They are models available with a hydraulic lock on closing or without a
hydraulic lock in which an electric lock is required.
To make the manual manoeuvre easier, the lock can be released by means
of a triangular pin which can be reached using the appropriate key.
The pushing force is adjusted with extreme precision by means of two by-
pass valves which provide antisquash safety.
The end-of-stroke operation is electronically set in the control panel by
means of a timer.
All models are available with slow-down function during the closing phase.

5) ACTUATOR INSTALLATION

5.1) Preliminary checks

Check that:
• The gate structure is sufficiently sturdy.
• Also make sure that the actuator pushes against the leaf reinforced
section.
• The leaves move manually and without effort all along their stroke.
• The door stop plates are fitted at the end of both closing and opening
strokes.
• If the gate has not been recently installed, check the wear condition of
all components.
• Repair or replace faulty or worn parts.
The automation reliability and safety are directly influenced by the state of
the gate structure.

5.2) Installation dimensions

The installation dimensions can be worked out from the table concerning
the respective model (fig.3) and with reference to the diagram in fig.4.
The diagram in fig.4 uses the following conventional references:
Rear bracket fixed to pillar.
P
Leaf fixing front fork.
F
Dimensions used to determine the fixing point for bracket "P".
a-b
Value of fixing distance between centres.
C
Leaf length.
D
Distance from the leaf axis to the pillar edge.
x
Value always greater than 40mm (b - x).
Z
Max leaf weight (see Technical specifications).
kg
°
α Leaf opening angle.
5.3) How to interpret the installation measurements (fig.3)
The table represents the recommended dimensions A and B based on the
length of the gate and of the decided opening angle in degrees α°. The
smaller are the values of A and B, the less is the opening-closing time of
the gate. The larger are the A and B values, the greater is the force
developed by the piston; (for small but heavy gates or others with
considerable friction it is recommended that the values of A and B be
increased). If the values A and B are too unlike, this can cause a speed
variation during the opening and closing, with the possibility of oscillations
and the possibility of gate jamming.
