GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

These installation instructions are intended for qualified
personnel only.
Installation, electrical connections and adjustments must be
performed in accordance with Good Working Methods and in
compliance with applicable regulations.
Before installing the product, carefully read the instructions. A poor
installation could be hazardous.
The packaging materials (plastic, polystyrene, etc.) should not be
discarded in the environment or left within reach of children, as
these are a potential source of hazard.
Before installing the product, make sure it is in perfect condition.
Do not install the product in a potentially explosive environment
and atmosphere: gas or inflammable fumes are a serious hazard
risk.
Before installing the motors, make all structural changes relating
to safety clearances and protection or segregation of all areas
where there is risk of being crushed, cut or dragged, and danger
areas in general.
Make sure the existing structure is up to standard in terms of
strength and stability. The motor manufacturer is not responsible
for failure to use Good Working Methods in building the frames to
be motorised or for any deformation occurring during use.
The safety devices (light barriers, safety edges, emergency stops,
etc.) must be installed taking into account: applicable laws and
directives, Good Working Methods, installation premises, system
operating logic and the forces developed by the motorised door or
gate.
The safety devices must protect any areas where the risk exists of
being crushed, cut or dragged, or where there are any other risks
generated by the motorised door or gate.
Apply hazard area notices required by applicable regulations.
Each installation must clearly show the identification data of the
motorised door or gate.
Before making power connections, make sure the plate
details correspond to those of the mains power supply.
Fit an omnipolar disconnection switch with a contact opening gap
of at least 3 mm.
Make sure an adequate residual current circuit breaker and
overcurrent cutout are fitted upstream of the electrical system.
When necessary, connect the motorised door or gate to a
reliable earth system made in accordance with applicable safety
regulations.
During installation, maintenance and repair, interrupt the power
supply before opening the lid to access the electrical control unit.
To handle electronic parts, wear earthed
antistatic conductive bracelets.
The motor manufacturer declines all responsibility in the
event of component parts being fitted that are not compatible
with the safe and correct operation.
For repairs or replacements of products only original spare
parts must be used. The installer shall provide all information
relating to automatic, manual and emergency operation of the
motorised door or gate, and provide the user with operating
instructions.
MACHINERY DIRECTIVE
Pursuant to Machinery Directive (98/37/EC) the installer who
motorises a door or gate has the same obligations as the manufac-
turer of machinery and as such must:
-
prepare the technical file which must contain the documents
indicated in Annex V of the Machinery Directive; (the
technical file must be kept and placed at the disposal of
competent national authorities for at least ten years from the
date of manufacture of the motorised door);
draft the EC declaration of conformity in accordance with
-
Annex II-A of the Machinery Directive and deliver it to the
customer;
- affix the CE mark on the motorised door in accordance with
point 1.7.3 of Annex I of the Machinery Directive.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Maximum approved weight and recommended weight:
see TECHNICAL DATA
Service Class:
5 (minimum of 5 years of use at 600 cycles per day)
Application:
HEAVY DUTY (For common entrances with very intensely used
vehicle or pedestrian access).
- Performance specifications refer to the recommended weight
(about 2/3 of maximum approved weight).
Use at the maximum allowed weight could reduce the above
performance specifications.
-
Service class, running times and number of consecutive
cycles are merely approximate. These have been
statistically determined during average conditions of use and
are not indicitative for each single case. They refer to a period
when the product performs without requiring special
maintenance.
- Each automatic access features variable factors such as:
friction, balancing and environmental factors that can
substantially reduce the service life and working quality
of the automatic access or part of its components (including
the automatic system). It is the installer's responsibility to
adopt adequate safety precautions in every installation.
