WARNINGS
Correct controller operation is only ensured when the data contained
in the present manual are observed. The company is not to be held
responsible for any damage resulting from failure to observe the
installation standards and the instructions contained in the present
manual.
1) GENERAL OUTLINE
The ICARO actuator offers ample installation versatility, thanks to the
extremely low position of the pinion, the compactness of the actuator and
to the height and depth which can be very easily adjusted. It is equipped
with an antisquash electronic device, which ensures utmost safety. The
emergency manual release can be activated very easily by means of a knob
featuring a personalised key.
The gate stop is controlled by electromechanical end-of-stroke microswitches
or, for very cold areas, by proximity sensors.
The control board can be built-in or installed onto a separate cabinet.
2) SAFETY
If correctly installed and used, this automation device satisfies the required
safety level standards. However, it is advisable to observe some practical
rules in order to avoid accidental problems.
Before using the automation device, carefully read the operation instructions
and keep them for future reference.
Keep children, persons and things outside the automation working area,
particularly during operation.
Keep radio control or other control devices out of childrens reach, in
order to avoid any unintentional automation activation.
Do not intentionally oppose the leaf movement.
Do not attempt to open the gate by hand, if the actuator has not been
released by means of the appropriate release knob.
Do not modify the automation components.
In case of malfunction, disconnect the power supply, activate the
emergency release to gain access to the actuator and request the
assistance of a qualified technician (installer).
Before proceeding to any external cleaning operation, disconnect the
mains powers supply.
Keep the photocell optical components and luminous signal indication
devices clean. Check that the safety devices (photocells) are not
obscured by branches or shrubs.
For any direct assistance to the automation system, request the
assistance of a qualified technician (installer).
Have qualified personnel check the automation system once a year, and
in particular control mechanism for force, speed, and sensitivity.
Fig. 1
3) MANUAL RELEASE
The manual or emergency release should only be activated when the gate
has to be opened manually or whenever the automation is not correctly or
totally functioning.
To carry out the emergency manoeuvre, proceed as follows:
Insert the personalised key into the lock and turn it anticlockwise by 90.
Turn the release knob clockwise (fig. 1) as far as it will go. The pinion will
therefore become idle and the gate can then be opened manually.
Push the leaf of the gate all the way down to the end-of-stroke.
Warning: do not push the gate leaf roughly, but move it gently all
along its stroke.
The key can be removed from the lock only after the knob has been
moved back to its initial position (motor-driven operation)
To re-activate motor-driven control, turn the knob anticlockwise as far as
it will go. Move the key back to its closing position, remove it and then
store it in a safe place, which is known to anyone who may need the
knob.

4) PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Before proceeding to any installation work, check that the gate structure
conforms to whatever is prescribed by the current standards, and in
particular that:
The gate sliding track is linear and horizontal, and the wheels are
suitable for supporting the gate weight.
The gate manual operation can be carried out smoothly along its entire
run, and there is no excessive side slipping.
A correct play is provided between the upper guide and the gate to
ensure regular noiseless movement.
The opening and closing gate stops are positioned.
The established position for gearmotor fixing allows the emergency
manoeuvre to be carried out smoothly and safely. In the case where the
elements checked do not meet the above requirements, proceed to
carrying out the necessary corrective actions or replacements.
WARNING: Remember that motor drive facilitates the use of the gate,
but does not solve the problems due to faults and defects in the
installation or failure to maintain the gate itself.
Fix the Warning sign provided (Fig. 14) on both sides of the gate,
stick the adhesive labels provided on the three visible sides of the
operator (Fig. 2).
Take the product out of its packing and inspect it for damage. Should it be
damaged, contact your dealer. Remember to dispose of its components
(cardboard, polystyrene, nylon, etc.) according to the current prescriptions.
5) BASE PLATE ANCHORING
5.1) Standard position
Dig a hole where the cement pad with the buried base plate log bolts is
to be placed in order to fix the reduction gear unit (fig.3). If the sliding
track is already there, digging must be partly carried out in the track
foundation casting. This way, should the track foundation casting sag,
the gearmotor base would also lower, thus maintaining the play between

(2000kg - 20000N). Having fixed the spacers in the middle of each of the
slots in the various rack pieces, weld the spacers to the gate. Also in this
case, arrange a section of rack the other way round in the joining points of
the various rack pieces to ensure a correct tooth pitch. The screws which
fix the rack to the spacers allow the rack to be adjusted in height.
7.4) Rack fitting
To fit the rack, proceed as follows:
Activate the emergency release by rotating the appropriate release
knob (See paragraph Emergency manoeuvre).
Rest the rack end on the control pinion and secure it (by welding or using
screws) in correspondence with the pinion, while sliding the gate along
by hand (fig. 9).
In the case of incorrect gate alignment (excessive side curving) which
cannot be corrected, place a few shims between the rack and gate in
order to ensure continuous centring of the rack with respect to the pinion
(fig. 10).
DANGER - The welding operation is to be carried out by a competent
person who must be provided with all the personal protection
equipment required by the current safety standards.
8) PINION ADJUSTMENT
Having finished fixing the rack, the rack-pinion play needs to be adjusted
to approximately 0.08 (2mm) (fig.6): this is obtained by slackening the four
M10 nuts under the gearmotor base by approximately 0.08 (2mm), and
then securing the four upper nuts. Make sure that the rack and pinion are
aligned and centred (fig.10).
WARNING - Remember that the rack and pinion life strictly depends
on their correct meshing.
9) ELECTROMECHANICAL LIMITING DEVICES
The operation must be carried out with the emergency release activated
and the mains power supply disconnected. The runners which control the
limiting devices are to be positioned at both ends of the rack.
- Push the gate fully open by hand.
- Position the opening end-of-stroke runner (fig.11) so that it intercepts the
microswitch control lever and makes it trigger. Having identified the
correct position, tighten the runner screws.
- Push the gate fully closed by hand.
- Position the closing end-of-stroke runner (fig.11) so that it intercepts the
microswitch control lever and makes it trigger. Having identified the
correct position, tighten the runner screws.
- The runners must lock the gate before this intercepts the mechanical
backstops placed on the track. The closing end-of-stroke runner
adjustment must be made in such a way as to leave a clearance of
approximately 2 (50mm) between the gate and the fixed swing leaf, as
prescribed by the current safety standards, otherwise fit an electric edge
at least 2 (50 mm) thick (fig.12).
10) GATE BACKSTOPS
DANGER - The gate must be provided with mechanical backstops,
both on opening and closing, in order prevent it from coming out of
the upper guide (fig.13); the backstops must be tightly secured to the
ground, a few centimetres beyond the electrical stop point.
11) ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION SETUP
Lay out the electrical installation as indicated in Fig. 14, making reference
to the current national standards for electrical installations.
Warning! For the connection to the power supply, use a multipolar
cable having minimum 3x1.5 sq mm cross section (16AWG) and
complying with the current standards (UL1015).
Connect the control and safety devices in compliance with the previously
mentioned technical installation standards.
The cables (mains and auxiliary) must be distinctly separated in their cable
clamp (P1-P2/Fig.15).
Fig.14 shows the number of connections and their cross sections for a
length of approximately 328ft (100 metres); for greater lengths, calculate
the cross section for the true automation load.
The main automation components are (fig.14):
