4. Opsætning og installation
The Locinox Lion Hydraulic Gate Closer is designed for screw-in installation and is non-handed, allowing for flexible mounting. Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance and longevity.
- Forbered porten og stolpen: Ensure the gate and gate post are structurally sound and capable of supporting the closer. Clean the mounting surfaces.
- Determine Mounting Position: Identify the optimal position for the closer unit and mounting arms. Consider the gate's opening angle (up to 180 degrees) and ensure no obstructions.
- Markér borepunkter: Use the provided template (if applicable) or measure carefully to mark the drilling points for the closer unit and mounting arms on both the gate and the post.
- Bor pilothuller: Drill pilot holes of the appropriate size for the fasteners.
- Mount the Closer Unit: Securely attach the main hydraulic closer unit to the gate post using the provided fasteners.
- Attach Mounting Arms: Connect the mounting arms to the closer unit and then securely fasten them to the gate. Ensure all connections are tight.
- Indledende justering: With the closer installed, slowly open and close the gate to observe its movement. The closer may require initial adjustment to achieve the desired closing speed and force. Refer to the operating instructions for adjustment procedures.
- Endelig kontrol: Verify that the gate closes smoothly and completely without slamming or excessive resistance. Check all fasteners for tightness.
5. Betjeningsvejledning
The Locinox Lion Hydraulic Gate Closer automatically closes your gate after it has been opened. The closing speed and final snap can typically be adjusted to suit your specific requirements.
Adjusting Closing Speed:
The closer features adjustment valves (usually small screws) that control the flow of hydraulic fluid, thereby regulating the closing speed. Locate these adjustment points on the closer unit.
- To Decrease Closing Speed (Slower): Turn the adjustment screw(s) clockwise in small increments.
- To Increase Closing Speed (Faster): Turn the adjustment screw(s) counter-clockwise in small increments.
Vigtig: Make small adjustments and test the gate's closing action after each adjustment. Over-tightening or loosening adjustment screws excessively can damage the closer. Ensure the gate closes fully and latches without excessive force.
6. Vedligeholdelse
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your Locinox Lion Hydraulic Gate Closer. This weather-resistant unit requires minimal but consistent care.
- Rensning: Periodically clean the exterior of the closer unit and mounting arms with a soft, damp klud til at fjerne snavs og rester. Undgå slibende rengøringsmidler.
- Inspektion: Annually inspect all mounting screws and bolts for tightness. Re-tighten if necessary. Check for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage to the closer body or arms.
- Driftstjek: Regularly observe the gate's closing action. If the speed changes significantly or the gate does not close smoothly, refer to the troubleshooting section or re-adjust the closing speed.
- Smøring: The hydraulic mechanism is sealed and generally does not require internal lubrication. However, external pivot points on the mounting arms may benefit from a light application of a suitable lubricant (e.g., silicone spray) if they show signs of stiffness.
7. Fejlfinding
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your hydraulic gate closer.
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| Gate not closing fully or too slowly. | Closing speed set too slow; gate hinges stiff; gate obstruction; closer losing hydraulic pressure. | Increase closing speed (turn adjustment screw counter-clockwise). Lubricate gate hinges. Remove obstructions. If closer is losing pressure, it may require replacement. |
| Gate slamming shut or closing too fast. | Closing speed set too fast. | Decrease closing speed (turn adjustment screw clockwise). |
| Porten laver knirkende lyde. | Dry or worn gate hinges; dry pivot points on closer arms. | Lubricate gate hinges and closer arm pivot points with a suitable lubricant. |
| Closer appears damaged or leaking fluid. | Physical damage; internal seal failure. | Discontinue use immediately. Contact customer support for replacement. Do not attempt to repair. |
