  • Page 9: Manual Override

    Stuck Open If the Xvent is stuck in the open position and will not close electrically, the mechanisms can be removed to allow the lid to be closed manually. Manual override needs to be done externally, so access to the rooftop will be required (ensure that all necessary safety precautions are followed).
  • Page 10 Two support legs (stocked by Glazing Vision) should be fitted to hold the lid in position allowing the Xvent to be safely worked on. Support legs must be fitted on both sides of the lid to ensure that there is adequate support, and it is critical that the height adjustment and clamp bolts are sufficiently tightened to prevent the legs from slipping (when working take care not to knock the support legs out of place).
  • Page 11 Stuck Closed If the Xvent is stuck in the closed position and will not open electrically, the mechanisms can be disconnected to allow the lid to be opened manually. As the building will be watertight, manually overriding the Xvent from the closed position is best done when an engineer is on hand to resolve the issue.
