PRODUCT MAINTENANCE

To keep the level of safety consistent and to guarantee maximum life of the en-
tire automation it is necessary to maintain it regularly.
The maintenance must be performed in line with the safety instructions of this
manual and according to what is set out by the laws and regulations in force.
For the gear motor a programmed maintenance within no more than 6 months
is required.
Maintenance operations:
01. Disconnect any sources of electricity.
02. Check the status of deterioration of all the materials which make up the
automation with particular attention to signs of erosion or oxidation of
the structural parts: replace the parts which do not provide sufficient
guarantees.
03. Check the screw connections are sufficiently tight.
04. Check the bolt and endless screw are suitably greased.
05. Check the wear of the moving parts and, if necessary, replace used parts.
06. Reconnect the sources of electrical power and perform all the tests and
checks envisaged in chapter 5.
For the other devices present in the system refer to the individual instruction
manuals.

DISPOSAL OF THE PRODUCT

This product is an integral part of the automation, and therefore, they
must be disposed of together.
As for the installation operations, at the end of the life of this product, the dis-
mantling operations must be performed by qualified personnel.
This product is made from different types of materials: some can be recycled,
others must be disposed of. Please inform yourselves on the recycling or dis-
posal systems provided for by the laws in force in your area, for this category
of product.
CAUTION! – some parts of the product can contain polluting or dangerous
substances which, if dispersed in the environment, may cause serious harm to
the environment and human health.
As indicated by the symbol at the side, it is forbidden to throw
this product into domestic refuse. Therefore, follow the "separat-
ed collection" instructions for disposal, according to the meth-
ods provided for by local regulations in force, or redeliver the
product to the retailer at the moment of purchase of a new,
equivalent product.
CAUTION! – the regulations in force at local level may envisage heavy sanc-
tions in case of abusive disposal of this product.
Durability of the product
Durability is the average economic life of the product. The value of durability is
strongly influenced by the demand index of the manoeuvres performed by the
automatism: that is the sum of all the factors which contribute to the wear of
the product (see Table 2).
To establish the probable durability of your automatism proceed as follows:
01. Calculate the demand index summing the values in percentage of the en-
tries present in Table 2 to each other;
02. In Graph A, from the value just found, trace a vertical line until you inter-
sect the curve; from this point trace a horizontal line to cross the line of "cy-
cles of manoeuvres". The value established is the estimated durability of
your product.
The estimate of durability is performed on the basis of the design calculations
and the results of tests carried out on prototypes. In fact, being an estimate, it
does not give any guarantee on the actual duration of the product.

Example of calculation of durability of a Wingo WG5024 gear motor (re-
fer to Table 2 and Graph A):
- leaf weight = 200 kg (demand index= 10%)
- leaf length = 2.5 m (demand index = 20%)
- no other stress elements present
Total demand index = 20%
Durability estimate = 80.000 cycles of manoeuvre
