INSTALLATION

4. PRELIMINARY CHECKS

Make sure that the dimensions of the door are within the limits
stated in the technical specifications. Make sure that the door
operates smoothly. If necessary, clean the tracks and lubricate
them with a silicon based lubricant. Do not use grease. Check the
condition of all door bearings and joints. Remove the mechanical
door locks so that when the door is closed it will be locked only
by the automated system. Make sure that there is a 230 Vac
power supply point in the garage, and that it is protected by an
adequate residual current circuit-breaker.
The FAAC 595 I operator is designed to operate various types
of up-and-over doors with counterweights. Figs. A, B, and
C show the most common types: projecting single panel,
projecting articulated panel, non-projecting single panel with
horizontal tracks. Either metal blocks or bricks can be used as
counterweights, though some door manufacturers use springs
instead of weights. Check in any case that the door pivots
correctly when opening and closing.

4.3. POSITIONING OF TELESCOPIC ARMS

Ensure that there is a gap (S) fig.4 of at least 15 mm between
the existing cross bar and the frame. This is essential if straight
telescopic arms are to rotate correctly as shown in fig. 5.
