Installation Warnings; Product Description And Intended Use; List Of Constituent Parts - Nice SPIDO Instructions And Warnings For Installation And Use

– The system's power supply network must include a dis-
connection device (not supplied) with a contact opening
gap permitting complete disconnection under the condi-
tions envisaged by Overvoltage Category III.
– Handle the product with care during installation, taking
care to avoid crushing, denting or dropping it, or allowing
contact with liquids of any kind. Keep the product away
from sources of heat and naked flames. Failure to observe
the above can damage the product, and increase the risk
of danger or malfunction. Should this happen, stop instal-
lation immediately and contact Customer Service.
– The manufacturer declines all liability for damages to
property, objects or people resulting from failure to ob-
serve the assembly instructions. In such cases, the war-
ranty for material defects shall not apply.
– The weighted sound pressure level of the emission A is
lower than 70 dB(A).
– Cleaning and maintenance reserved for the user must not
be carried out by unsupervised children.
– Before intervening on the system (maintenance, cleaning),
always disconnect the product from the mains power
supply and from any batteries.
– Inspect the system frequently, in particular the cables,
springs and supports to detect any imbalances and signs
of wear or damage. Do not use the product if it needs to
be repaired or adjusted, because defective installation or
incorrect balancing of the automation can lead to injuries.
– The packing materials of the product must be disposed of
in compliance with local regulations.
– The product must not be installed outdoors.
– Keep an eye on moving doors and do not let anyone go
near them until they have opened or closed fully.
– Be careful when activating the manual unlocking device
(manual manoeuvre), as an open door may fall suddenly
due to weak or broken springs, or if it is unbalanced.
– Every month, check that the drive motor reverses when
the door encounters a 50 mm-high object placed on the
ground. If necessary, readjust the door and check it again,
as incorrect adjustment is potentially dangerous (for drive
motors incorporating a trapping safety system that inter-
venes when the door's lower edge encounters an obsta-
cle).
– If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by
the manufacturer or by its technical assistance service or
similarly qualified person in order to prevent any form of
risk.

1.2 INSTALLATION WARNINGS

– Prior to installing the drive motor, check that the door is in
good working order, correctly balanced and that it opens
and closes properly.
– Prior to installing the drive motor, remove all unnecessary
cables or chains and deactivate any equipment, such as
the locking devices,
– Check that there are no points where people could get
trapped or crushed against fixed parts when the door is
fully open or closed; if there are, arrange adequate pro-
tective measures for these parts.
– Install the manoeuvre device for manual unlocking at less
than 1.8 m above the ground. NOTE - If removable, the
manoeuvre device must be kept next to the door when
removed.
– Make sure that the control elements are kept far from
moving parts but nonetheless directly within sight. Unless
a selector is used, the control elements must be installed
at least 1.5 m above the ground and must not be acces-
sible.
– Permanently attach the trapping hazard warning labels in
a highly visible location or near the fixed control devices
(if present).
– Permanently attach the manual unlock (manual manoeu-
vre) label close to the manoeuvring element.
– After installation, make sure that the motor prevents or
stops opening of the door when the latter is loaded with a
20-kg weight secured to the centre of its bottom edge (for
drive motors that can be used with doors having opening
widths exceeding 50 mm).
– After installation, make sure that the mechanism is prop-
erly adjusted and that the motor reverses when the door
collides with a 50 mm-tall object placed on the ground (for
drive motors incorporating a trapping safety system that
intervenes when the bottom edge of the door encounters
an obstacle). Following installation, check and ensure that
no door parts obstruct public roadways or pavements.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE

SPIDO is an electromechanical actuator for automating sectional
doors and protruding and non-protruding overhead doors.
For the application with non-protruding overhead doors, or pro-
truding overhead doors without springs, it is necessary to use the
SPA5 accessory, which is not supplied.
The control unit supplied with the product, besides powering the
DC motor, ensures optimal adjustment of the gearmotor torque
and speed, precise measurement of the positions, gradual starting
and closing, and obstacle detection. It is also equipped with an
internal meter which allows for recording of the manoeuvres per-
formed by the gearmotor during its lifetime.
The unlocking mechanism, activated from the ground, disengages
the motor carriage from the guide.

Any use of the product other than the intended use
described is not allowed!
