INTRODUCTION
INSTALLATION WARNINGS
TOP EVO operator allows the automation of swinging gates.
The automation is composed by an operator with arm, that transmits the movement to the leaf, and by a built-in
hydraulic control unit.
TOP EVO operators are interchangeable with previous TOP versions, see chapter 8.
• Before proceeding with the installation, it is necessary to fit a magneto-thermal differential switch with a max.
capacity of 10A upstream of the system. The switch must guarantee an omnipolar separation of the contacts,
with an opening distance of at least 3mm.
• Keep all the materials contained in the packaging away from children since they pose a potential risk.
• The manufacturer declines all responsibility for improper functioning of the automated device, if the original
components and accessories suitable for the specific application are not used.
• After installation, always carefully check the proper functioning of the system and devices used.
• This instruction manual addresses professionals qualified to install “powered equipment” and therefore requires
a good technical knowledge and installation in compliance with the regulations in force.
• Maintenance must be carried out by qualified personnel.
• Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operation, disconnect the control unit from the main line.
• This product has been designed and constructed exclusively for the use indicated in this documentation. Any
other use may cause damage to the product and be a source of danger.
• Verify the end purpose of the product and take all the necessary safety precautions.
• The use of the products for purposes different from the intended use has not been tested by the manufacturer
and is therefore on full responsibility of the installer.
• Mark the automated device with visible warning plates.
• Warn the user that children or animals must not play or stand near the gate.
• Appropiately protect the dangerous points (for example, using a sensitive edge).
• Check the proper installation of the earthing system: connect all the metal parts of doors, gates, etc. and all the
system components to an earth terminal.
• Exclusively use original spare parts for any maintenance or repair operation.
• Do not modify any components of the automated device unless expressly authorised by GI.BI.DI.
• Use suitable cable clamps to ensure that the wiring is properly connected mechanically and such that an IP 65
protection degree is maintained.
WARNINGS:
This product has been tested by GI.BI.DI. for full compliance with the requirements of the directives in force.
GI.BI.DI. S.r.l. reserves the right to change the technical data without prior notice in relation to product
development.

6 PRELIMINARY WARNINGS -
• Check that the gate structure is adapted for installing the operator.
• Check that the fixed and mobile parts of the gate are structurally intact and appropriate or whether require
reinforcement work.
• Check that the parts subject to friction, especially the top hinge, does not require any setup.
• In the working area of the operator there must no obstacles of any kind.
• Check the existence of an efficient earth.
• The installation should be done far away from any road, so as not to pose a threat to circulation.
• It is useful to signal the automatic entrance with easily visible warning plates (inside and outside) and, if
necessary, that warn pedestrians they are not allowed to pass through.
• If the installation presents some unsafety details, stop the work and contact your dealer.
• Check that the gate structure is strong enough. In any case the operator must push the leaf at a reinforced
point.
• Check that the leaves can be moved manually without effort throughout the stroke.
• Check that the mechanical stops, both in opening and closing, are correctly installed.
• If the automatic system is not a completely new installation, check the wear of all components and repare or
replace the defective or worn parts.
• The reliability and safety of the automatic device are directly affected by the condition of gate structure.

7 END STOPS OF THE LEAVES ON THE GROUND -
For the correct operation of the actuator, use the end stops both in opening and closing.
The end stops of the leaves must prevent the actuator rod from arriving to the limit switch and must be
positioned so as to keep a stroke room of the rod of about 5-10 cm, in order to avoid any possible operation
anomaly.
Moreover it is recommended to use some amortised / rubber limit switch stops, in order to attenuate shock.
8 MOUNTING DIMENSIONS -
If it is not possible to maintain the dimensions in table [4], consider the following to calculate the measurements:
• For b = 90° ® A + B = Cu
• For b > 90° ® A + B < Cu (b max 110°)
• Quota A must always be bigger than quota D.
•The difference between A and B must not exceed 50 mm. Larger differences cause an uncostant
movement of the leaf (the tractive/thrust force and the movement speed vary during the manoeuvre).
• If the leaf is very thick, with consequent difficulty in respecting the dimension F, it is possible to increase the
dimension D and dimensions A and B must also be increased by the same amount, maintaining anyway
the rules indicated above.
9 HYDRAULIC SLOWDOWNS -
TOP291ER(/S), TOP391ER(/S), TOP441ER(/S) operators are equipped with hydraulic slowdowns.
The hydraulic slowdown occurs during the last 45mm of rod stroke, both in opening and closing.
WARNING:
ŸThe intensity of the slowdown is predetermined at the factory and cannot be modified, but some little
[ ].
adjustments are still possible, properly acting on the thrust adjustment valves À and Á 13
ŸIt is of fundamental importance to comply with the installation quotas and take into consideration what said
above to make use of the hydraulic slowdowns.
ŸThe effectiveness of the hydraulic slowdown is affected by the ambient temperature, at low temperature

6 PRELIMINARY WARNINGS -
• Check that the gate structure is adapted for installing the operator.
• Check that the fixed and mobile parts of the gate are structurally intact and appropriate or whether require
reinforcement work.
• Check that the parts subject to friction, especially the top hinge, does not require any setup.
• In the working area of the operator there must no obstacles of any kind.
• Check the existence of an efficient earth.
• The installation should be done far away from any road, so as not to pose a threat to circulation.
