1.1 Measuring the dimensions
Take the dimensions using disc (f) to determine the position of the motors on the pillars.
Note: For these measurements, the gate leaves and their hinge pins are assumed to be on the same axis.
N.B.: You must leave a minimum distance of 50 cm between the gate leaves and the fixed sections (see "Risk prevention", page 4).
Measure dimension A.

Take care to ensure the bracket is
fitted the right way up.
Recommended: dimension A is negative
If dimension A is negative, the gate leaf hinge is located in front of the pillar.
We recommend that you add a shim so that the cylinder mounting bracket is
aligned with the gate leaf hinge and A is 0 cm.
