1.3 Preliminary checks

> Installation environment
ATTENTION
Do not spray water onto the drive.
Do not install the drive in an explosive environment.
> Condition of the door to be motorised
Before installing the drive, check that:
- the door is in good mechanical condition
- the door is correctly balanced
- The structures of the garage (walls, lintel, partitions,
ceiling, etc.) enable the drive to be fixed securely.
Strengthen these if necessary.
- the door can be correctly opened and closed manually
using a force of less than 150 N.
CAUTION: It is dangerous to perform any operation on the
door springs (the door may fall).
> Specifications of the door to be motorised
After installation, ensure that the parts of the door do not
encroach onto the pavement or public thoroughfare.
If the garage door is fitted with a wicket door, the door
must be equipped with a system that prevents it from
moving when the wicket door is not in the safety position.

1.4 Electrical installation

The installation of the power supply must comply with
the standards in force in the country in which the drive is
installed, and must be carried out by qualified personnel.
The electric line must be exclusively reserved for the drive
and equipped with protection, comprising:
- a 10 A fuse or breaker,
- a differential type device (30 mA).
An all-pole power supply cut-off device must be provided.
It is recommended that you fit a lightning conductor
(maximum residual voltage 2 kV).

> Cable feed
Underground cables must be equipped with a protective
sheath with a sufficient diameter to contain the motor cable
and the accessories cables.
For overground cables, use a cable grommet that will
withstand the weight of vehicles (ref. 2400484).

1.5 Safety instructions relating to installation

Before installing the drive, remove any unnecessary cords
or chains and deactivate any locking device (bolt) which is
not required for motorised operation.
Do not connect the drive to a power supply (mains, battery
or solar) until installation is complete.
Ensure that any danger zones (crushing, cutting, trapping)
between the driven part and the surrounding fixed
elements caused by the opening movement of the driven
part are avoided or indicated on the installation (see "Risk
prevention").
Permanently affix the crushing warning labels near to any
fixed control devices, and so that they are extremely visible
to the user.
Modifying one of the elements provided in this kit or using
an additional element not recommended in this manual is
strictly prohibited.
Monitor the door as it moves and keep people away from it
until installation is complete.
Do not use adhesive to secure the drive.
Install the internal manual back release device at a height
of less than 1.8 m.
Permanently affix the label concerning the manual back
release device near to its mobile component.
Take care when using the manual back release device as
an open door can suddenly fall off if the springs are weak,
broken, or incorrectly balanced.
ATTENTION
Install any fixed control device at a height of less than
1.5 m and within sight of the door, but away from moving
parts.
After installation, ensure that:
- the mechanism is correctly adjusted
- the manual back release device is operating correctly
- the drive changes direction when the door encounters an
object 50 mm high on the ground.
