2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE
STRIKE gear motor is designed to automate residential or commercial sliding gate with rack.
Any other use than above described has to be considered as inappropriate and strictly prohibited.
All models feature an irreversible gearing system that locks the gate when it is in its fully closed position. Therefore
no additional lock is needed. In case of a power failure the motor lock can be released to move the gate manually
(see section 6).
The STRIKE 4 version, 24 Volts, can also be powered by a back-up battery system that allows emergency openings
even in case of a power cut.

3. INSTALLATION
3.1 PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Before the installation, to ensure correct working of the automation, please check the followings:
• Make sure the gate’s structure is suitable to be automated
• Check the weight, dimensions and type of the gate is appropriate to this type of automation
• Ensure the gate is able to open and close smoothly and is free of obstacles that may cause the gate to potentially
derail
• Check the ground and all surfaces for the installation are suitable for stable and safe fixing of the gate automation.
• Make sure the installation area for the automation is wide enough to accommodate the anchor plate and the motor
can be accessed easily in the event of power cuts.
• Ensure the location where the automation is installed is not exposed to flood hazards; if in doubt raise the automation
from above ground level.
• In cases where the automation has to be installed in a vehicles path or manoeuvre area, it is recommended to protect
it against accidental damage.
• Ensure an efficient earth connection system is in place.
• Make sure the surfaces for photocells fixing areas are flat and smooth enough to allow a perfect alignment between
transmitting and receiving units. They must both directly see each other as they are not reflective.

3.4 PRELIMINARY INSTALLATION WORK
AND MASONRY FOR ANCHOR PLATE
Identify approximately the place of each component and
proceed as follows:
a) Dig the foundation pit for the gear motor whilst considering
the anchor plate dimensions. Give an extra 5cm area extra
on each side. Pay attention to measurements shown in Fig.2.
b) Provide one or more ducts for the electrical cables so that
they can easily go through the purpose fabricated hole in
the gear motors anchor plate. Pay attention to the plate’s
orientation: hole for cables routing on the side opposite the
gate (see Fig. 2).
c) Set concrete into the pit. Ensure this is level and smooth out
the surface. Wait for the concrete to get solidify (this may
take a few days).
d) Insert the cables ducting to the hole in the anchor plate and
fix the plate to the concrete using suitable plugs.
e) Cut the cable ducts about 3cm above the anchor plate
level and route the cables for accessories and electrical
mains wiring as shown in Fig. 3 diagram. Ensure the cables
are at least 30-50cm out from the ducting to allow easy
wiring to the control panel.

b) Insert the four hexagon-headed screws with the washers and
nuts in the loops of the motor base (Fig. 4).
c) Route the electrical cables in the purpose fabricated hole of
the motor base (Fig. 5) and gently lower the motor base
onto the anchor plate.
d) Move the screws in the loop’s centre and screw them up till
the lower nut rests on the anchor plate.
e) Use a spirit-level to make sure that the gear motor is perfectly
level (Fig. 6), if it is not adjust the four screws accordingly.
Then tighten all nuts.
f) Release the gear motor for manual operation as illustrated in
section 6 of this manual.

PVC RACK M4 20X26MM WITH INNER STEEL
FRAME (0.5M SECTIONS)
a) Move the gate manually to its open position.
b) Align the first section of the rack to the gate edge and lower
it on the pinion. Use a spirit-level to make sure it is perfectly
straight.
c) Fix this first section of rack to the gate with the provided
self-tapping screws. Fix the screws in the in the middle of the
slot as illustrated (Fig. 7).

e) Keep the rack perfectly flat and fix it to the gate.
f) Repeat the same procedure until the gate is fully covered.
g) In case the last section of rack partially comes out from the
rack edge, do not cut it. Add a bracket as a gate extension
to support the last bit of rack (Fig. 8).
h) To avoid the gates weight being supported by the motors
drive pinion cog, adjust the four screws to lower a little the
gear motor and then tighten again all the nuts.

STEEL RACK M4 12X30MM (1M SECTIONS)
a) Move the gate manually to its open position.
b) Assemble the three threaded stand-offs on the first section of
rack, positioning in the middle of the slot (Fig. 9).
c) Align the first section of the rack to the gates edge and lower
it on the pinion. Use a spirit-level to ensure the rack is
perfectly straight and level.
d) Weld the threaded stand-off to the gate (Fig. 10)
e) Move the gate manually, checking that the rack is always
resting on the motors drive pinion cog, and weld second
and third stand-offs.
f) Place the second section of rack side by side with the first
one, using an upside-down section of rack to synchronise
the rack teeth as illustrated in Fig. 11.
g) Move the gate manually and weld the three threaded
stand-offs.
h) Repeat the same procedure until the gate is fully covered.
i) In case the last section of rack partially comes out from the
rack edge, do not cut it. Add a bracket as a gate extension
to support the last bit of rack (Fig.8).
j) To avoid the gates weight being supported by the motors
drive pinion cog, adjust the four screws to lower a little the
gear motor and then tighten again all the nuts.
Check the gate always reaches the mechanical
stops keeping the alignment between the rack and
the motor drive pinion cog. Ensure that there are no
friction points in the gates complete travel.

3.4 PRELIMINARY INSTALLATION WORK
AND MASONRY FOR ANCHOR PLATE
Identify approximately the place of each component and
proceed as follows:
a) Dig the foundation pit for the gear motor whilst considering
the anchor plate dimensions. Give an extra 5cm area extra
on each side. Pay attention to measurements shown in Fig.2.
b) Provide one or more ducts for the electrical cables so that
they can easily go through the purpose fabricated hole in
the gear motors anchor plate. Pay attention to the plate’s
orientation: hole for cables routing on the side opposite the
gate (see Fig. 2).
c) Set concrete into the pit. Ensure this is level and smooth out
the surface. Wait for the concrete to get solidify (this may
take a few days).
d) Insert the cables ducting to the hole in the anchor plate and
fix the plate to the concrete using suitable plugs.
e) Cut the cable ducts about 3cm above the anchor plate
level and route the cables for accessories and electrical
mains wiring as shown in Fig. 3 diagram. Ensure the cables
are at least 30-50cm out from the ducting to allow easy
wiring to the control panel.
4. ELECTRICAL WIRING
Insert the electrical cables into the control panel’s case by
piercing the rubber membrane and place the cable grommet
in its purpose fabricated seat on the motor’s base (Fig. 16).
Terminate the cable of the main supply with the provided
cable block (Fig. 17).
Follow the control panel’s instruction manual to proceed with
the correct cable wiring. Wire all cables for the earth system to
the provided lug and fix onto the motor base point marked with
symbol.
5. START-UP
Power the system and proceed with a careful checking of the
gear motor working and of all the accessories and safety
devices connected to the system.
In particular make sure that the electric limit-switch is always
activated in opening and closing before the gate reaches its
mechanical stops. Place the two slot-covers on the M10
screws. Lift the motor cover down and close it with the two side
screws.
Hand over this instructions manual to the end user and demon-
strate the correct use of the automation and how to release
the motor for manual operation of the gate in the event of
power cuts.
Once the assembling of the limit brackets to rack is completed, open and close the gate manually to check that the
brackets always activate the limit-switch system before the gate reach its mechanical stops. This checking is important
to preserve the correct working of the automation and continued good mechanical condition of the gate.
