1.2 - Warnings for installation
• Before installing check if this product is suited to automating your
gate or door (see chapter 3 and "Technical features of the product").
If unsuitable, DO NOT proceed with the installation.
• Include a disconnection device in the power supply system with an
opening distance between the contacts to permit full disconnection
in the conditions dictated by the category of surcharge III.
• All the installation and maintenance operations must occur
with the automation disconnected from the electrical power
supply. If the disconnection device of the power supply is not visible
from the area where the automatism is located, before starting the
work it is necessary to attach a sign with the text "CAUTION! MAIN-
TENANCE IN PROGRESS" on the disconnection device.
• During installation handle the automatism with care avoiding
crushing, knocks, falls or contact with liquids of any kind. Do not

All these activities can damage and cause malfunctions or dangerous
situations. If this occurs, stop the installation immediately and con-
tact the King-Gates Assistance Department.
• Do not make alterations to any part of the product. Operations which
are not permitted will cause only malfunctions. The manufacturer decli-
nes any liability for damage caused by arbitrary alterations to the product.
• If the gate or the door to be automated is fitted with a pedestrian door
it is necessary to include a control system in the installation to prevent
the operation of the motor when the pedestrian door is open.

leaf of the gate is in the maximum Open position, if necessary protect
these parts.
• The push button control on the wall must be positioned in sight of
the automation, away from the moving parts, at a minimum height of
1.5 m from the ground and it must not be accessible to the public.

the local regulations in force.
