before starting any work. Before first use and at least annually a specialist must in-
spect powered windows, doors and gates regarding their safe condition� Specialist
is, who on the basis of their technical training and experience, has sufficient know-
ledge in the field of powered windows, doors and gates and moreover is familiar
with relevant state occupational safety regulations and generally accepted rules
of technology in such an extent that he is also able to assess the safe working
condition of powered windows, doors and gates�
● The person installing must have knowledge of the following standards: EN 13241,

garage door� Repeat test once a month and make any needed changes�
● This system must not be installed in damp or wet areas�
● During operation, the gate should not under any circumstances obstruct public
passageways�
