WARNING! Important safety instructions. Carefully read and comply with the
Warnings booklet and Instruction booklet that come with the product as incorrect
installation can cause injury to people and animals and damage to property. They
contain important information regarding safety, installation, use and maintenance.
Keep hold of instructions so that you can attach them to the technical file and
keep them handy for future reference.
1) GENERAL SAFETY
- The units making up the machine and its installation must meet the requi-
rements of the following European Directives: 2004/108/EEC, 2006/95/EEC,
98/37/EEC, 89/106/EEC and later amendments. For all countries outside the
EEC, it is advisable to comply with the above-mentioned standards, in addi-
tion to any national standards in force, to achieve a good level of safety.
- The Firm disclaims all responsibility resulting from improper use or any use
other than that for which the product has been designed, as indicated he-
rein, as well as for failure to apply good Practice in the construction of entry
systems (doors, gates, etc.) and for deformation that could occur during use.
- Make sure the stated temperature range is compatible with the site in which
the automated system is due to be installed.
- Do not install the product in an explosive atmosphere.
- Disconnect the electricity supply before performing any work on the system.
Also disconnect buffer batteries, if any are connected.
- Have the automated system's mains power supply fitted with a switch or om-
nipolar thermal-magnetic circuit breaker with a contact separation of at least
3.0 mm.
- Make sure that upline from the mains power supply there is a residual current
circuit breaker that trips at 0.03A.
- Make sure the earth system has been installed correctly: earth all the metal
parts belonging to the entry system (doors, gates, etc.) and all parts of the
system featuring an earth terminal.
- Installation must be carried out using safety devices and controls that meet
standard EN 12978.
- Apply all safety devices (photocells, safety edges, etc.) required to keep the
area free of crushing, dragging and shearing hazards.
- The motor cannot be installed on panels incorporating doors (unless the mo-
tor can be activated when the door is open)
- If the automated device is installed at a height of less than 2.5 m or is accessi-
ble, the electrical and mechanical parts must be suitably protected.
- Any fixed controls must be installed within sight of the door but away from
moving parts. Unless the control is key operated, it must be installed at a
height of at least 1.5 m and in a place where it cannot be reached by the
public
- Apply at least one warning light (flashing light) in a visible position, and also
attach a Warning sign to the structure.
- If there are no instructions already, attach a label near the operating device,
in a permanent fashion, with information on how to operate the manual rele-
ase.
- Make sure that nothing can be crushed between the guided part and sur-
rounding fixed parts during the door's operation
- Once installation is complete, make sure the motor has the right settings and
that the safety and release systems are working properly.
- Only use original spare parts for any maintenance or repair work. The Firm
disclaims all responsibility for the correct operation and safety of the automa-
ted system if parts from other manufacturers are used.
- Do not make any modifications to the automated system's components un-
less explicitly authorized by the Firm.
- Dispose of packaging materials (plastic, cardboard, polystyrene, etc.) in accor-
dance with the provisions of the laws in force. Keep nylon bags and polystyre-
ne out of reach of children.
Warning! For connection to the mains power supply, use a multicore cable
with a cross-section of at least 4x1.5mm
regulations mentioned above (by way of example, type H05 VV-F cable can
be used with a cross-section of 4x1.5mm
use wires with a cross-section of at least 1 mm
Have an omnipolar circuit breaker installed with a contact separation of
at least 3 mm and featuring overload protection, suitable for cutting the
automated device off from the mains.
Only use pushbuttons with a capacity of 10A-250V or more.
The cables must be held in position using an extra fixing device in the prox-
imity of the terminals, e.g. with cable clamps.
Also add more clips to the limit device wires, to the transformer primary or
secondary wires, and to the wires connected to the printed circuit.
During installation, the power supply cable must be stripped in order for the
earthing wire to be connected to the appropriate terminal, but the active
wires must be left as short as possible. The earthing wire must be the last to
stretch in the case where the cable fixing device becomes loose.
WARNING: extremely low safety voltage cables must be phisically
separated from low voltage cables.
Access to the electrical compartment or to limit switches must be allowed
to skilled personnel only.
Compliance with current safety rules with regard to people, animals and property
must be assured at all times and, more specifically, measures must be taken to avoid
risks of injury due to crushing, in the area where the pinion and rack mesh, and

any other mechanical hazards. All critical points must be protected by safety
devices in accordance with the provisions of the regulations in force.
CHECKING THE AUTOMATED DEVICE
Before the automated device is finally put into operation, perform the following
checks meticulously:
•
Make sure all components are fastened securely.
•
Check the correct functioning of all safety devices (limit microswitches, pho-
tocells, sensitive edges etc.).
•
Make sure that the anti-crush system stops the door within the limits provided
for by the standards in force.
•
Check the emergency operation control device.
•
Check the opening and closing operations with the control devices in use.
•
Check the standard and customised electronic functioning
USE OF THE AUTOMATED DEVICE
Since the automated device can be remote controlled via a remote control or
start button, hence with the door out of sight, it is vital that all safety devices be
checked frequently to ensure they are in perfect working order. If there is any
malfunction, take prompt action, calling in qualified personnel to do the job.
You are strongly advised to keep children well out of range of the automated
system. Depending on the type of control applied, the automated device must
be used in compliance with the installer's instructions in order to operate without
endangering people, animals or property.
CONTROL
The purpose of using the automated device is to enable motorized door ope-
ning and closing. There are various options when it comes to the control system
(manual, remote control, access control with magnetic badge etc.) depending
on the installation's needs and characteristics. See the relevant instructions for
the various control system options.
People due to use the automated device must be instructed how to control
and use it.
MAINTENANCE
When performing maintenance of any kind, cut off power to the system.
•
Check the drive system at regular intervals.
•
Check all safety devices installed for the door and drive.
•
In the event of any anomalous functioning which cannot be resolved, discon-
nect the power supply and contact a specialised technician (installer). Whilst
the automation is out of order, activate the manual release to allow manual
opening and closing.
SCRAPPING
WARNING! Employ the services of qualified personnel only. Materials must be
disposed of in accordance with the regulations in force. There are no particular
hazards or risks involved in scrapping the automated system. For the purpose
of recycling, it is best to separate dismantled parts into like materials (electrical
parts - copper - aluminium - plastic - etc.).
DISMANTLING
WARNING! Employ the services of qualified personnel only.
If the automated system is being dismantled in order to be reassembled at another
site, you are required to:
•
Cut off the power and disconnect the whole external electrical system.
•
See to the replacement of any components that cannot be removed or happen
to be damaged.
