Regular safety checks and safety accessories
To meet the national/international requisites and avoid any malfunctioning or risk of injury, carry
out the following operations and checks at least once every 6 months (or according to the fre-
quency of use of the automation).
You are advised to have repairs and adjustments carried out by qualified personnel.
Disconnect the power supply [A] when carrying out cleaning or maintenance tasks.
Disconnect the power supply and:
• visually check the automation [1].
• check the electrical wires [B].
• check the condition of the gate [C] and the fixing brackets, and make sure the sliding movement is
smooth and even.
• clean the slide mechanism, rack and pinion.
• lubricate the rack and pinion.
• make regular checks to ensure the photocells are clean. Do not use alkaline-based products. Do
not use high pressure water jets. The automatic system, function selector switches and photocells
could get damaged. Do not use polishing detergents. Do not rub with abrasive products, as they
could cause damage.
Reconnect the power supply, then check:
• the limit switches (if fitted) are working correctly
• the flashing light [3] is working correctly.
• the power adjustments are correct (this operation must be carried out by qualified personnel)
• the command devices [2] - [4] (if fitted) are working correctly
• the safety devices [5] - [6] - [7] (if fitted) are working correctly If the gate detects an obstacle while it
is opening or closing, it must reverse its movement or stop.
