INSTALLATION WARNINGS

Prior to installing the drive motor, check that all mechanical components are in good working order and properly balanced, and that the au

-

tomation moves correctly

If the gate or door being automated has a pedestrian gate, then the system must include a control device that will inhibit the operation of the 

motor when the pedestrian gate is open

Make sure that the control devices are kept far from moving parts but nonetheless in a visible position. Unless a selector is used, the control 
devices must be installed at a height of at least 1.5 m and must not be accessible

That windows, having a gap exceeding 200 mm when open, are to be closed using a biased-off switch if the opening movement is controlled 
by a fire-sensing system

Ensure that entrapment between the driven part and the surrounding fixed parts due to the opening movement of the driven part is avoided

Permanently fix the label concerning the manual release adjacent to its actuating member

• After installing the 

drive motor, make sure that the mechanism, protective system and all manual manoeuvres operate properly
