With bottom hung windows injury could be caused if the window accidentally
falls. An appropriately sized flexible link arm or fall prevention safety system
designed to resist a force equal to at least three times the total weight of the
window MUST be installed.
Danger of crushing or dragging. During function, when the actuator closes the
window, a force of 550N is exerted on the bead of the frame, enough to crush
fingers in the event of distraction.
In the event of breakage or malfunction, switch the appliance off at the
general switch and call for the services of a qualified technician.

Formulas and recommendations for installation

2.1. Calculation of opening / closure force

Using the formulas on this page, approximate calculations can be made for the force
required to open or close the window considering all the factors that determine the
calculation.
Symbols used for the calculation
F (Kg) = Force for opening or closing
C (cm) = Opening stroke (actuator stroke)
For horizontal light domes or skylights
F = 0,54 x P
(Eventual weight of snow or wind on the
cupola should be calculated separately).
ATTENTION
P (Kg) = Weight of the window (mobile sash only)
H (cm) = Height of the mobile sash
For vertical windows

BOTTOM HUNG WINDOWS
F = 0,54 x P x C : H

separately.)

2.2. Maximum opening in accordance with sash height

The actuator stroke should be selected in accordance with the height of the sash and its
application. Make sure that the actuator does not touch the profile of the sash when
moving along its track, and ensure there are no obstacles blocking the opening and that
the rack moves smoothly along the window frame.

actuator to the frame or sash. In the event of difficulty, request assistance
from the manufacturer to check application.

Technical information about function

The rack actuator performs opening and closing movements for the window using a
round section steel rack. Movement is powered by electricity that feeds a reduction
motor controlled by a functional electronic device.
The opening stroke for the window CANNOT be programmed as it is regulated by
the length of the rod on the reduction motor. The electronic control device allows the
rack to protrude until it encounters an obstacle that blocks its stroke. This could be
provided by the internal lock on the rack or complete closing/opening of the window.
In both outwards and return directions the stroke-end uses a self-defining electronic
process with power absorption, and for this reason, no adjustment is required.
