CIVIL & MECHANICAL SECTION
1.1 - Pre-Installation Check
BEFORE BEGINNING YOUR FERNI S GATE INSTALLATION CHECK THE
FOLLOWING:
THE GATE POST OR PIERS ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO SUPPORT THE GATE
AND THE MOTOR
THE GATE IS STRONG ENOUGH TO BE AUTOMATED.
THE GATE SWINGS FREELY FROM OPEN TO CLOSE AND THERE IS NO
FRICTION ON THE HINGS.
Fig 1
IF DISTANCE B IS 0 TO 300mm: DISTANCE A MUST BE AT LEAST 110mm.
IF DISTANCE B IS 300mm TO 380mm: DISTANCE A MUST BE AT LEAST
150mm.

1. - Mounting the Motor Base Plate
USING SUITABLE ANCHOR BOLTS OR CHEMICAL RESIN FOR BRICK PIER
SECURITY MOUNT THE MOTOR PLATE TO THE BRICK PIER.
FOR WOODEN POSTS IT IS AD ISED TO FIX THE MOTOR PLATE TO THE
POST. A THREADED BAR SHOULD BE PLACED ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE
POST THEN BOLTED. Fig 3
Fig 2
WHEN MOUNTING THE MOTOR PLATE BE SURE TO RESPECT THE 150mm
DIMENSION FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE MOTOR PLATE TO GROUND LE EL.
THIS IS TO ENSURE SUFFICIENT CLEARENCE FOR THE TRANSMISSION
DRI E ARM TO BE INSERTED THROUGH THE MOTOR.
ENSURE THAT THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE CENTRE OF THE FRONT
BRACKET ‘A’ 450mm. THE FRONT GATE BRACKET MUST BE FIXED LOWER
THAN THE MOTOR PLATE BY 19mm AS SHOWN
