IMPORTANT ADVICE: THESE INSTRUCTIONS ESSENTIALLY DESCRIBE THE INSTALLATION OF THE ART300-24MB DRIVE WITH THE
ACCESSORY ARM ART-3, FOR INSTALLATION ON A SWING DOOR.
IF THE ART-1 FOLDING DOOR ARM OR THE SPACE-SAVING ART-2 DOOR ARM ARE INSTALLED IT IS ESSENTIAL TO FOLLOW THE
INSTRUCTIONS INCLUDED WITH THOSE ITEMS. THE INSTALLATION WORK VARIES FROM THESE INSTRUCTIONS AT SOME POINTS.
WARNING AND SAFETY ADVICE IS EXCEPTED FROM THIS.
PLEASE START BY READING THESE IMPORTANT SAFETY RULES • SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This safety alert symbol means "Caution" - failure to comply with such an instruction involves risk of personal injury or
damage to property. Please read these warnings carefully.
This gate drive mechanism is designed and tested to offer appropriately safe service provided it is installed and
operated in strict accordance with the following safety rules.
Incorrect installation and/or failure to comply with the following instructions may result in serious personal injury or
property damage.
Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while
servicing or installing a gate opener.
Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local
building and electrical installation codes. Power cables must
only be connected to a properly earthed supply.
Entrapment between the moving gate and walls due to the
opening movement must be avoided by using safety
edges or IR sensors when necessary.
Please remove any locks fitted to the gate in order to prevent
damage to the gate. A special E-Lock is available as
accessory.
After installation, ensure that the gate opener system is
properly adjusted and that the safety system and the
manual release function correctly.
This drive must not be used with a gate incorporating a
wicket door.
The actuating member of a biased-off switch, if installed, is
to be located within direct sight of the gate but away from
moving parts. Unless it is key operated, it is to be installed
at a minimum height of 1,5m and not accessible to the
public.

It is important to make sure that the gate always runs
smoothly. Gates which stick or jam must be repaired
immediately. Employ a qualified technician to repair the
gate, never attempt to repair it yourself.
Keep additional accessories away from children. Do not
allow children to play with any controls. Keep remote
controls away from children. Operate gate when it is in full
view and no one is near the gate. A gate can cause serious
injuries or death as it openes or closes.
Disconnect electric power to the system before making
repairs or removing covers. Install an all pole disconnect
switch in the permanent wiring if one is not present.
Make sure that people who install, maintain or operate the
gate drive follow these instructions. Keep these instructions
in a safe place so that you can refer to them quickly when
you need to.
The gate drive system is to be regularly examined for any
signs of wear and tear or damage. The gate drive system
must not be used if repair or adjustments are needed.
INSTALLATION
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
The ART is suitable for use with wide pillars, up to about 30cm in width.
The maximum recommended opening angle of the gate is 125 degrees.
Ensure that ample space is available next to the drive for the arms and
assembly. Gates exposed to a high wind load must be fixed with an
electric lock for additional protection. While the drive is fitted with
internal limit switches, stops should also be mounted on the ground to
prevent gate rattle or flutter. There are many factors to consider when
choosing the right drive mechanism. Assuming that a gate functions
properly, "startup" is the most difficult phase, once the gate is in motion,
significantly less force is usually required to move it.
• Gate size: The gate size for this drive must not be more than 3.0m.
Wind can brake or distort the gate, thereby increasing the amount of
force needed to move it considerably.
• Gate weight: The weight of the gate must not be more than 250kg.
• Effect of temperature: Be sure that the ambient temperature where
the drive is installed will be between -20 to +55 deg since low outdoor
temperature can prevent the motor from starting. High outdoor
temperatures along with frequent use can cause the motor thermal
protection to operate. Wait 15 minutes if this has occurred.
• Frequency of operation/operating time: This gate opener is
designed for intermittent duty and will cause the motor thermal
protection to operate if it is operated continuously. It is designed to
operate for over 5 cycles continuously or less than 30% duty cycle.
Wait 15 minutes if this has occurred.
