Thank you for buying this product, our company is sure that you will be more
than satisfied with the product's performance. The product is supplied with
a "Warnings" leaflet and an "Instruction booklet". These should both
be read carefully as they provide important information about safety,
installation, operation and maintenance. This product complies with the
recognised technical standards and safety regulations. We declare that this
product is in conformity with the following European Directives: 89/336/EEC
and 73/23/EEC (and subsequent amendments).

1) GENERAL OUTLINE

The ICARO actuator offers ample installation versatility, thanks to the ex-
tremely low position of the pinion, the compactness of the actuator and to the
height and depth which can be very easily adjusted. It is equipped with an
antisquash electronic device, which ensures utmost safety. The emergency
manual release can be activated very easily by means of a knob featuring
a personalised key.
The gate stop is controlled by electromechanical end-of-stroke microswitches
or, for very cold areas, by proximity sensors.
The control board can be built-in or installed onto a separate cabinet.
The gearmotor (fig. 1) is made up of the following:
M Motor
R Worm screw - worm wheel reduction gear
S Electromechanical end-of-stroke unit or proximity sensor
P Pinion with release
C
Control board with capacitor
E Obstacle detection device (Encoder)

2) GENERAL SAFETY

WARNING! An incorrect installation or improper use of the product can
cause damage to persons, animals or things.
• The "Warnings" leaflet and "Instruction booklet" supplied with this prod-
uct should be read carefully as they provide important information about
safety, installation, use and maintenance.
• Scrap packing materials (plastic, cardboard, polystyrene etc) according
to the provisions set out by current standards. Keep nylon or polystyrene
bags out of children's reach.
• Keep the instructions together with the technical brochure for future refer-
ence.
• This product was exclusively designed and manufactured for the use
specified in the present documentation. Any other use not specified in
this documentation could damage the product and be dangerous.
• The Company declines all responsibility for any consequences result-
ing from improper use of the product, or use which is different from that
expected and specified in the present documentation.
• Do not install the product in explosive atmosphere.
• The construction components of this product must comply with the following
European Directives:89/336/CEE, 73/23/EEC, 98/37/EEC and subsequent
amendments.As for all non-EEC countries, the above-mentioned standards
as well as the current national standards should be respected in order to
achieve a good safety level.
• The Company declines all responsibility for any consequences resulting
from failure to observe Good Technical Practice when constructing closing
structures (door, gates etc.), as well as from any deformation which might
occur during use.
• The installation must comply with the provisions set out by the following
European Directives:89/336/CEE, 73/23/EEC, 98/37/EEC and subsequent
amendments.
• Disconnect the electrical power supply before carrying out any work on
the installation.
• Fit an omnipolar or magnetothermal switch on the mains power supply,
having a contact opening distance equal to or greater than 3,5 mm.
• Check that a differential switch with a 0.03A threshold is fitted just before
the power supply mains.
• Check that earthing is carried out correctly: connect all metal parts for
closure (doors, gates etc.) and all system components provided with an
earth terminal.
• Fit all the safety devices (photocells, electric edges etc.) which are needed
to protect the area from any danger caused by squashing, conveying and
shearing.
• Position at least one luminous signal indication device (blinker) where it
can be easily seen, and fix a Warning sign to the structure.
• The Company declines all responsibility with respect to the automation
safety and correct operation when other manufacturers' components are
used.
• Only use original parts for any maintenance or repair operation.
INSTALLATION MANUAL
• Do not modify the automation components, unless explicitly authorised
by the company.
• Instruct the product user about the control systems provided and the
manual opening operation in case of emergency.
• Do not allow persons or children to remain in the automation operation
area.
• Keep radio control or other control devices out of children's reach, in order
to avoid unintentional automation activation.
• The user must avoid any attempt to carry out work or repair on the automa-
tion system, and always request the assistance of qualified personnel.
• Anything which is not expressly provided for in the present instructions,
is not allowed.
• The motor cannot be installed on gates which incorporate doors (unless
the motor drive can work with the door open).
• Take care to avoid possible crushing, due to door movement, between
the guided part and surrounding fixed parts.
• If present, the holding device (hold-to-run control) must be fitted within
sight of the guided part and well away from the operator working area.
Unless it is activated by means of a key, it should be positioned at least
1.5 m high and should not be accessible to the public.
• For operator movement, it is possible to use the fixing slots in the motor
body, after removing the side covers.
• Make sure that persons are kept well away from the operator, in particular
whenever the motor is used in «hold-to-run» mode.
• When using sliding gates which incorporate pedestrian doors, the motor
must not work in the case where the door is left open.
• Check that the range of temperature indicated is compatible with the place
of installation.
• During installation, the power supply wires must be laid at an adequate
distance from the motor, in order to prevent them from being affected by
excessive temperature.
• Power supply mains wires (230V) must be clearly separated from wires
having very low safety voltage (SELV 24V), otherwise they must be pro-
vided with additional insulation, at least 1mm thick.

4) PRELIMINARY CHECKS

Before proceeding to any installation work, check that the gate structure
conforms to whatever is prescribed by the current standards, and in par-
ticular that:
• The gate sliding track is linear and horizontal, and the wheels are suitable
for supporting the gate weight.
• The gate manual operation can be carried out smoothly along its entire
run, and there is no excessive side slipping.
• A correct play is provided between the upper guide and the gate to ensure
regular noiseless movement.
• The opening and closing gate stops are positioned.
• The established position for gearmotor fixing allows the emergency
manoeuvre to be carried out smoothly and safely. In the case where the
elements checked do not meet the above requirements, proceed to car-
rying out the necessary corrective actions or replacements.
