Choosing a TO4005 gate operator
Gate leaf length and weight limits
The NICE chart for Toona 4 allows approximately 500 kg for a gate leaf up to 1.8 m long and 300 kg at 3 m. Between these points, the maximum permitted weight decreases as the length increases. Also take into account smooth gate movement, solid infill, and wind.
Estimated service life
Service life is an estimate based on the load index, not a guaranteed number of cycles. Add the applicable values from the table and read the result from the original NICE chart.
| Factors affecting the complete automation system | Index | Service life chart |
|---|---|---|
| Effect on Toona 4 index |  Click to enlarge the original NICE chart. | |
Gate leaf weight up to 200 kg | 0 % | |
Weight over 200 kg and up to 300 kg | 10 % | |
Weight over 300 kg and up to 400 kg | 20 % | |
Weight over 400 kg and up to 500 kg | 30 % | |
Gate leaf length from 2 to 3 m | 20 % | |
Temperature above 40 °C, below 0 °C, or humidity above 80 % | 20 % | |
Solid gate leaf infill | 15 % | |
Wind exposure zone | 15 % | |
| Service life chart |
|---|
When calculating, use the weight of one gate leaf. For example, for 250 kg, 2.5 m, and no other factors, the index is 10 % + 20 % = 30 %; read the estimated number of cycles from the chart.
Standalone operator and kits
This page is for ordering one TO4005 operator. The original NICE manual shows the mounting brackets, fasteners, and keys supplied with each specific package. Before installation, check that the delivery is complete against the manufacturer's Figure 1. The operator alone, without a control unit and the necessary safety devices, is not a complete automation system.

Installing the TO4005 operator
Before fastening, check that the post, its foundation and its anchoring can withstand the loads from the gate leaf, operator and wind. The profile dimensions alone do not determine suitability: the material, wall thickness, height, hinge position and condition of the foundation also matter.
If the hinge position and post shape do not allow the dimensions shown in the installation chart, adjust the rear bracket or use extended PLA6 bracket. Determine dimensions A and B from the measured value of C and the required opening angle using the NICE installation chart. When opening outwards, an extended rear bracket is required; determine its length from the chart and check that the gate leaf moves freely.
Before fastening, also check that the gate leaf moves smoothly and maintains a safe distance from fixed obstacles. The front and rear brackets differ in height by F = 34 mm.
I. Installing the rear mounting bracket
Inward opening diagram
Outward opening diagram
Calculate the position of the rear bracket using the chart, which shows dimensions A and B and the maximum opening angle. Note that A and B must be similar (ideally equal) to allow the operator to move smoothly in a straight line.
Calculation chart
Example of reading values from the chart
Calculation procedure:
- Measure the distance C from the diagram
- On the chart, draw a horizontal line crossing the measured value C
- Where this line intersects the DIL (Recommended Installation Line), you can determine the maximum opening angle
- If the intersection is below level t,you will need to adjust the values to move the intersection above this level
- If the intersection is above level t,everything is fine, but if the specified maximum opening angle is unsuitable, you will need to adjust the value of A and, if necessary, the value of B, so that they are similar (ideally equal)
Before attaching the bracket to the post or wall, cut it to the required length corresponding to dimensions A and B and weld it to the mounting plate.
1. Cut the bracket to the required length
2. Weld the shortened bracket to the mounting plate
The standard rear bracket supplied is 150 mm long. Before welding it, compare its available length with the dimensions in the installation chart; if it is not long enough, use a suitably extended bracket.
Before attaching the rear bracket, check that the front bracket will land on a solid part of the gate leaf, as the front and rear brackets differ in height, as shown in the illustration.
Difference F = 34 mm.
If everything checks out, attach the rear bracket to the post or wall using screws, wall plugs and washers.
II. Installing the front mounting bracket
The front bracket must be fitted to the gate leaf at a distance determined by values D and E, which you read from the table (the value D is fixed at 730 mm):
| A (mm) | E (mm) |
|---|---|
| 100 | 630 |
| 110 | 620 |
| 120 | 610 |
| 130 | 600 |
| 140 | 590 |
| 150 | 580 |
| 160 | 570 |
| 170 | 560 |
| 180 | 550 |
| 190 | 540 |
| 200 | 530 |
| 210 | 520 |
The supplied package includes a bracket for welding. If you would prefer a screw-on bracket, we recommend ordering the alternative NICE PLA8 screw-on bracket.
- Calculate from the table the value E
- Calculate the height according to the diagram bracket heights (view image)
- Attach the bracket to the gate leaf (if welding it, we recommend tack-welding it for now)
III. Installing the gate operator on the rear bracket
- Attach the motor to the bracket as shown in the image, using the supplied rear-bracket pin, washer and nut.
- Tighten the nut fully, then loosen it by 1/10 of a turn so that the gate operator can rotate
IV. Installing the gate operator on the front bracket
- Attach the operator to the bracket as shown in the image, using the supplied pin and washer.
- Tighten the pin fully
V. Micro-switch stop at opening
TO4005 is one of the 230 V Toona 4 models with a mechanical stop and micro-switch. When the stop is contacted, the micro-switch interrupts the power supply to the motor. Set and test the end position according to the original drawing and the control unit used; do not apply the procedure for the 24 V mechanical stop without first checking.
TO4005 motor wiring
The motor has connections AP / COM / CH and a separate protective earth connection. Carry out wiring only with the power disconnected, following NICE figure 15 and the instructions for the actual control unit. Check the direction of travel, end-position micro-switch and safety devices when testing the complete gate.
Control unit MC800 is used only in configurations that actually include it. The motor's 230 V rating does not by itself indicate the voltage of the photocell, warning light or control outputs.
Wiring accessories with the MC800 and MCA5R30 board
The following wiring applies to the MC800/MCA5R30 in current TO4005 kits. The accessory terminals are part of the control unit, not the motor itself. If using a different control unit, follow its own wiring diagram. Disconnect the mains power before starting work.
| Accessories | Terminals, power supply and polarity |
|---|---|
Auxiliary power supply | On the MCA5R30, terminal 3 = 0 V (−) and terminal 4 = +24 V DC and the common point for the inputs. The shared current limit for powered accessories is 200 mA; check the current draw and permissible voltage of each product. |
EPM relay photocells | With Standby disabled and no photocell test, power the TX transmitter and RX receiver from terminal 4 (+24 V DC) and terminal 3 (−). Connect the volt-free C–NC contact of the receiver between 4 (common) and the relevant input 8/PHOTO, 9/PHOTO1 or 10/PHOTO2. The contact has no +/− polarity. The AUX inputs must be set to relay photocell mode; in limit-switch mode, they have a different function. |
EPM with Standby enabled | According to the MCA5R30 diagram, power both TX and RX between terminal 4 (+24 V DC) and terminal 5 (OutSTB, switched return line). On EPM photocells, 1 = +, 2 = return line. OutSTB is 24 V, maximum 4 W and switches off in Standby; do not use terminal 5 as a permanent negative supply. Connect the RX C–NC contact between terminal 4 and the relevant PHOTO input. |
EPM with photocell test | Wire according to the photocell test diagram TX 1 → 4 (+24 V DC), TX 2 → 5 (OutSTB). The receiver is continuously powered: RX 1 → 4 (+), RX 2 → 3 (−). The RX C–NC contact remains connected between terminal 4 and the relevant PHOTO input. Do not overload OutSTB or use it at the same time to power another load; after wiring, perform device learning and test the safety function. |
BlueBUS photocells | Compatible EPMB connect using two wires to BlueBUS terminals 6 and 7. + and − are not polarity-sensitive. Set the address and run device learning after adding or removing an item. |
STOP and command inputs | Dry-contact input 12/STOP accepts NO, NC or 8.2 kΩ, depending on the connected device; the state is learned. 13/SbS, 14/OPEN and 15/CLOSE use an NO contact connected to terminal 4 (common). These contacts are not polarity-sensitive; do not apply an external voltage to the inputs. This also applies to the relay of a key switch or external receiver. |
ELAC warning light | NICE ELAC connect to the FLASH output intended for a self-flashing lamp: switched 120/250 V AC, maximum 21 W. This is a mains-voltage output; it has no +/− polarity. Do not confuse it with the 24 V accessory terminals. |
Electric lock | Terminals 1–2 / EL: 12 V AC, maximum 15 VA. The AC output has no +/− polarity; check the lock specifications. |
Radio receiver | OXIBD is installed in the SMconnector; do not use power terminals 3/4 or BlueBUS for it. Connect the antenna according to the receiver instructions, not to the motor terminals. |
If AUX inputs 8–11 are used for limit switches, their function differs from that of the PHOTO inputs; the microswitch in the TO4005 motor does not by itself determine the AUX setting on the control unit. If you change the photocells or wiring, repeat the relevant learning procedure and test the gate’s stopping and response. For detailed instructions, see the MC800 control unit manual.

Manual release during a power failure
- Slide the lock cover on the operator aside.
- Insert the release key, turn it, and pull out the lever.
- Move the gate leaf slowly by hand. When finished, re-engage the operator and check that it has engaged properly.
The procedure corresponds to the original NICE figure 16. Move the gate leaf by hand only after disconnecting the power supply and confirming that it can move safely.
