GEMEX SYSTEM HORIZONTAL
IEC 160/180
IEC 200/400

To reach optimal reliability, the GEMEX Lock is delivered installed on the GEMEX Motor Mount.
Here are a few tips to simplify the installation:

Disassemble existing motor. If the slide rails are in good condition, the motor stand can be mounted directly on them, make a "loose" assembly. Mount the motor "loosely" as well.

If the system is to be mounted on a foundation, place the motor stand on the foundation and assemble the motor. Put the cogged plates in the beam so that they grip into the cogging on the beams. Adjust to the correct position and parallelism – find a front position with the cylinders in their lowest position where the belts can be put on easily. (Picture 1). Mark out the holes in the foundation and drill for fasteners.

Disassemble the belts and begin by tightening the beams in the motor console against the slide rails/foundation. Then tighten the motor fastenings. Throughout the tightening process, check that the pulleys are aligned and that the axles are parallel (Picture 2). If possible, use a laser-levelling instrument.

Mount the belts and adjust to the correct tension*. Release the cylinders to the lower level so that the belts are completely slack. Then check the parallelism and alignment, make fine adjustments if necessary. (Picture 3). Retighten all the fixation points. Adjust to the required belt tension according to the instructions under "Adjustment".

* Please note that the cylinders for safety reasons are constructed so that they will be evacuated if pumped up too high, thereby exhausting the oil into the rubber bellows.
