Delivery, Movement & Transportaton
4
This article describes how your equipment will be delivered to you, specifications on the transportation
used and advice including health & safety on movement of the equipment.
The gate should ALWAYS! be in the central position before any movement commences, this ensures that
the gate does not distort or get damaged. Refer to Manual Release instructions on Page 6 of this manual
to move the gate into this position.
Illustration shows gate central to main tower
The manufacturer will use a qualified transport company to deliver the product conforming to the
necessary regulations as detailed below:
ŸAll drivers are qualified hi-ab certified
ŸAll drivers are tested once yearly
ŸAll drivers carry risk assessments and method statements (available on request)
ŸThey are controlled under law to conform as there are no trade regulation standards to comply with
Health and safety Considerations:
Moving Goods Safely (MGS) is a national project involving both the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and
Local Authorities (LA) working in partnership. The project aims to reduce injuries and ill-health arising from the
movement of goods from supplier through haulier to the recipient and end user including any home deliveries.
The project will focus upon the delivery and collection of goods and the hazards this generates. It covers the
main areas that cause the majority of injuries and ill-health to workers, including:
ŸWorkplace transport;
ŸSlips & trips, and;
ŸMusculoskeletal disorders (MSD).
The movement of goods presents us, as health and safety regulators, with the challenge of dealing with a huge
variety of issues. The commercial organisations involved within the movement of goods are diverse including
haulier, third party logistics providers, pallet networks, retailers etc, with some very large companies,
thousands of small businesses and the self-employed. The movement of goods is more than just trucks on the
road with a large proportion of accidents happening at the delivery/collection sites that are often not directly
under the control of the company making the delivery or collection. Communication and cooperation problems
can arise due to the many organizations involved in the movement of the goods, and this can also lead to
difficulties in effectively managing health and safety.

1. When delivered, the gate is locked in a central position so that the gate is
balanced when lifted from the top of the tower.
2. Lower the gate onto the plinth and visually align the gate and catch-post into position. Using one M20
fixing, bolt down the main tower using one of the rear bolt-down holes.
3. Making sure that the gate is still visually aligned, use one M16 fixing and bolt down the rear support
wheels (on the opposite side to the hole used on the main tower) see below.
4. Manually slide the gate into the closed position to fine tune the alignment of the gate with the catch
post.(See Page 6 for details on Manual Release)
The numbers in the text document below relate to the drawings below.

5. Manually slide the gate back into the central “balanced” position taking care
not to move the tower or rear wheel support base plate.
6. Finish bolting down the rear support wheel base-plate and the main tower of the gate
making sure that it is true and square in both directions.
7. Slide the gate until the centre of the lower main beam is in the centre of the rear support wheels and the
centre of the main tower i.e. have the lower main beam supported centrally by the rear support wheels
and the drive rollers.
8. Undo the 30mm nuts that lock the cantilever arm adjuster to relax the cantilever arm and leave the gate
in an unstressed state.
9. Placing a level on the centre of the lower beam or lower rail, adjust the rear wheel support until the
lower main beam is level. Manually pull the gate closed and adjust the cantilever until the gate is level.
10. Using a laser square or similar, make sure the photo-cells from the Main Gate Housing to the Catch
Post line up (this should be already level as it is governed by the plinth levels).
11. Now
complete the installation of the Catch Post using 4 x M16 fixing bolts (supplied)
12. Now most important of all, you must fit the rear roller as shown (under the parts list on the previous
page), which is universal in the way it can be fitted. It can either be used as a “cast in” post, or the bottom
strut can be cut off and used as a “bolt down” roller all illustrated below.
12.
Bolt down or cast
the rear roller in this
position shown.
Cut along this line to
remove the bottom
spiggots and shaft.
Once the shaft is
removed you will
use the M16 bolts
to fix down.
Before you can bolt
the part down you
have to remove this
roller by un-doing
the nuts either side
as shown.
making sure that it is true and square.

Manual Bullet Lock Guide
The gate is equipped with a bullet lock to keep the gate secure in
the closed and open position's. The picture left shows the main
components included.
You need to follow out the below procedure to fit this on site. This
cannot be fitted at the factory and needs fitting after the gate has
been fully installed.
If you have any questions please call our technical department.
The catch post has been fitted with a
housing that the above bullet lock fits into.
On first fitting when the gate is fully open
and closed you will need to drill a 12mm
hole in the lower gate main beam to
receive the end pin of the bullet lock
above. You will drill straight through dead
centre of this to ensure correct alignment.
When these steps are completed the
setup is complete.
