5.4 INSTALLING THE RACK
5.4.1 STEEL RACK TO WELD (Fig.11)
Place the three threaded pawls on the rack element, posi-
tioning them at the top of the slot. In this way, the slot play
will enable any adjustments to be made.
Manually take the leaf into its closing position.
Lay the first piece of rack level on the pinion and weld the
threaded pawl on the gate as shown in Fig. 14.
Move the gate manually, checking if the rack is resting on
the pinion, and weld the second and third pawls.
Bring another rack element near to the previous one, using a
piece of rack (as shown in Fig. 15), to synchronise the teeth
of the two elements.
Move the gate manually and weld the three threaded pawls,
thus proceeding until the gate is fully covered.
