1.1 - General warnings
The following warnings are taken directly from the
Regulations and apply, as far as possible, to the product
described herein.
• ATTENTION! - Important safety instructions. Follow all
instructions as improper installation may cause serious
damage.
• ATTENTION! - Important safety instructions. It is
important for you to comply with these instructions
for your own and other people's safety. Keep these
instructions.
• Before commencing the installation, check the "Technical
characteristics" (in this manual), in particular whether this
product is suitable for automating your guided part. If it is not
suitable, DO NOT continue with the installation.
• The product cannot be used before it has been commissioned
as specified in the chapter on "Testing and commissioning".
• ATTENTION! - According to the most recent European
legislation, the implementation of an automation
system must comply with the harmonised standards
provided by the Machinery Directive in force, which
enables declaration of the presumed conformity of the
automation. Taking this into account, all operations
regarding connection to the electricity grid, as well
as product testing, commissioning and maintenance,
must be performed exclusively by a qualified and skilled
technician!
• Before proceeding with the installation of the product, check
that all the materials are in good working order and suited to
the intended applications.
• This product is not intended to be used by persons (including
children) whose physical, sensory or mental capacities are
reduced, or who lack the necessary experience or skill.
• Children must not play with the appliance.
• Do not allow children to play with the fixed control devices of
the product. Keep the remote controls away from children.
• ATTENTION! - In order to avoid any danger from
inadvertent resetting of the thermal cut-off device, this
appliance must not be powered through an external
switching device, such as a timer, or connected to a
supply that is regularly powered or switched off by the
circuit.
• Provide a disconnection device (not supplied) in the plant's
power supply grid, with a contact opening distance permitting
complete disconnection under the conditions dictated 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 installation immediately
and contact Customer Service.
• The manufacturer assumes no liability for damage to property,
items or persons resulting from non-compliance with the
assembly instructions. In such cases the warranty for material
defects is excluded.
• The weighted sound pressure level of the emission A is lower
than 70 dB(A).
• Cleaning and maintenance to be carried out by the user must
not be carried out by unsupervised children.
• Before working on the system (maintenance, cleaning), always
disconnect the product from the mains power supply.
• Check the system periodically, in particular all cables, springs
and supports to detect possible imbalances, signs of wear or
damage. Do not use, if repairs or adjustments are necessary,
since installation failure or an incorrectly balanced automation
may cause injury.
• The packing materials of the product must be disposed of in
compliance with local regulations.
• When operating a biased-off switch, make sure that other
persons are kept away.
• When operating the gate, keep an eye on the automated
mechanism and keep all bystanders at a safe distance until
the movement has been completed.
• Do not operate the product if anyone is working nearby;
disconnect its power supply before permitting such work to
be done.
• If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the
manufacturer or by an appointed servicing company or
similarly qualified person in order to prevent any form of risk.

1.2 - Installation warnings

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