Personal injury or property damage
Important safety information
The automated door opening system and the adapter ADP-1EVO has been as a matter of course tested and designed for safe operation, but safety
can be assured only if the safety instructions listed below are strictly adhered to during installation and operation.
• The installer (specialist) must carefully read and understand these instructions before starting any work. Before first use and at least annually a
specialist must inspect powered windows, doors and gates regarding their safe condition. Specialist is, who on the basis of their technical training
and experience, has sufficient knowledge in the field of powered windows, doors and gates and moreover is familiar with relevant state occupa-
tional safety regulations and generally accepted rules of technology in such an extent that he is also able to assess the safe working condition of
powered windows, doors and gates.
• The door should be balanced. Unmoving or stuck doors must be repaired. In an unbalanced state, garage doors, door springs, cables, discs,
brackets and rails are under extreme tension, which can lead to serious injury. Do not attempt to loosen, move or realign the door, but contact
service centre or a door professional.
• During the installation or maintenance of a door opener, no jewellery, watches or loose clothing should be worn.
• To avoid serious personal injury due to entanglement, remove all cables and chains connected to the door before installing the door opener.
• During installation and electrical connection, the local building and electrical regulations must be observed.
This device complies with Protection Class 2 and does not require grounding.
• To avoid damage to very light doors (such as fibre glass, aluminium or steel doors), an appropriate reinforcement should be added. To do so,
contact the door manufacturer.
• The automatic safety reverse system should undergo a test. Upon contact with a 50 mm high barrier on the ground, the garage door MUST return.
Failure to properly adjust the door opener can result in serious personal injury from a closing garage door. Repeat test once a month and make
any needed changes.
• This system must not be installed in damp or wet areas.
• During operation, the door should not under any circumstances obstruct public passageways.
• To remind all operators of the safe operation, in addition to the illuminated wall switch a warning sign to protect children should be affixed.
The warning signs about the risk of trapping should be placed in clearly visible spots.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the device.
• This device is not intended for use by persons (including children) with restricted physical, sensory or mental abilities or lack of experience and/or
knowledge, unless they are supervised by a person responsible for their safety or have received instruction in how to use the device.
• Before performing any repairs or removing covers, the door opener and the adapter ADP-1EVO should be separated from the electric power
supply.
