There are two ways to know how to orientate the operator:
A. By Motor Pivot Direction:
A.
One method consists of turning the motor’s pivot manually. We can use the operator arm
B.
B. Turni
ng the motor’s pivot manually, we can use the operator arm to assist us. By turning
motor pivot in both directions, using the operator arm to assist in this moment by hand, we
can see that the motor turns with no resistance in one direction; while on the other hand,
turning the motor in the other direction needs greater force. In summary:
Low resistance when turning corresponds to the opening direction of the door.
High resistance when turning corresponds to the closing direction of the door.
6. FIXING OPERATOR
6.1 Introduction
In order to fix the operator to the door frame, a template is provided with indication as to where the
fixture holes should be. There are 6 holes represented (4 fix the operator to the frame and 2 fix the
operator arm to the door).
These 6 holes are the minimum required that must be used to fix the mechanism correctly.
Before proceeding to fix the operator we recommend keeping the following advice in consideration:
●
If the operator is fixed to a thin metal surface (less than 10mm thickness) it is strongly advised
to use threaded screws metric size M6 instead of self-tapping screws.
●
If the operator is fixed onto a hollow brick it is strongly advised to use a plastic wall plug and a
threaded rod metric size M6.
