SL1S

SLIDE MOTOR

The SL1s suits residential gates up
to 5m long, weighing up to 400kg

(e󰀨ective gate weight).

Automation only works if the gate

is in good condition, runs freely for
the full length.

MOTOR POSITION

The motor needs to sit on a solid
footing on the opening side of the
gate. The edge of the base plate
should be 50mm from the inside of
the gate.

GATE

Secure the motor with 100mm M8
dyna-bolts. It’s crucial that the motor
cannot move. If uneven, the motor
can be levelled up by adjustment of
the allen-headed bolts in each corner
of the motor.

GEAR RACK

Unlock the motor with the release-key.

Lay the gear-rack on the ground next to the gate. Check that the mounting points of the gear-rack

supported on the gate.

Fix the gear-rack to the gate, one length at a time, using the motor as a guide for the height.

3.

Leave a play of 1 mm between the rack and the pinion so that the gate does not weigh on the
gear.

(not supplied)

Once the full length of the gear-rack is attached, manually move the gate backwards and for-

of the rack. Set them so they touch
the limit-switch on the motor

switch stops.
