In this way a perfect strike of the leaves against the ground supports is
guaranteed.
9) MANUAL OPENING
All controllers feature a key release mechanism. After lifting the lock cover
(fig.16), insert the release key supplied and turn it clockwise by 90°.
Push the leaf manually to open the gate. To reset the motorised operation,
turn the key in the opposite direction and refit the cover.
10) ELECTRIC LOCK
WARNING: In the case of leaves longer than 3m, it is indispens-
able to install a solenoid latch.
For electric lock connection, the optional board is required (refer to
the appropriate instruction).
11) CHECKING THE AUTOMATION
Before considering the automation completely operational, the following
checks must be made with great care:
• Check that all the components are firmly anchored.
• Control all the safeties work properly (i.e. photocells, pneumatic skirt,
etc.).
• Check the emergency manoeuvre control.
• Check the opening and closing manoeuvres using the controls.
• Check the control unit's electronic logic in normal (or customised)
operation.
12) USE OF THE AUTOMATION
Since the automation may be remote controlled either by radio or a Start
button, it is essential that all safeties are checked frequently.
Any malfunction should be corrected immediately by a qualified specialist.
Keep children at a safe distance from the field of action of the automa-
tion.
13) THE CONTROLS
With the automation the gate has a power driven opening and closing.
The controls can come in various forms (i.e. manual, remote controlled,
limited access by magnetic badge, etc.) depending on needs and installa-
tion characteristics. For details on the various command systems, consult
the specific instruction booklets.
Anyone using the automation must be instructed in its operation and con-
trols.
14) MAINTENANCE
When carrying out maintenance operation on the controller, disconnect
it from the mains power supply. The actuator does not require periodical
maintenance operations.
• Check the safety devices of the gate and automation.
• Periodically check the pushing force and correct the value of the electric
torque in the control board if necessary.
• In case of unsolved operation failures, disconnect the unit from the
mains power supply and ask for the intervention of qualified personnel
(installer).
When the unit is out of order, activate the manual release to perform
manual opening and closing manoeuvres.
• WARNING! Grease the worm screw every two years. Recommended
grease type: G885.
15) NOISE
The aerial noise produced by the gearmotor under normal operating
conditions is constant and does not exceed 70dB(A).
16) SCRAPPING
Materials must be disposed of in conformity with the current regulations.
In case of scrapping, the automation devices do not entail any particular
risks or danger. In case of recovered materials, these should be sorted
out by type (electrical components, copper, aluminium, plastic etc.).
17) DISMANTLING
When the automation system is disassembled to be reassembled on
another site, proceed as follows:
• Disconnect the power supply and the entire electrical installation.
• Remove the gearmotor from its fixing base.
• Disassemble the control panel, if separate, and all installation compo-
nents.
INSTALLATION MANUAL
• In the case where some of the components cannot be removed or are
damaged, they must be replaced.
18) TROUBLES AND SOLUTIONS
18.1) Incorrect operation of gearmotor
a) Check for the presence of power supply to the gearmotor using a
suitable instrument after opening or closing commands have been
given.
b) If the moving direction of the leaf is opposite to the right one, invert
the motor running connections (motor +red/ motor - black).
c) Should the gate stop and hit the ground stopping device and the actua-
tor reverse its moving direction, it means that the limiting devices have
not been adjusted correctly. If this happens on the opening stopping
device, move the opening limiting device towards the hinge of the
gate until the correct position is found(see adjustment of the limiting
devices).
If, on the contrary, this happens on the closing stopping device, move
the closing limiting device towards the stem plug until the correct posi-
tion is found (see adjustment of the limiting devices).
18.2) Incorrect operation of the electrical accessories
All control and safety devices can cause, in case of failure, malfunctioning
or stoppage of the automation.
To identify the failure, it is advised to disconnect all the devices of the
automation one by one until the one causing the problem is found.
After fixing or replacing the defective device, reset all the devices previ-
ously disconnected. Refer to the relevant instruction manual for all the
devices installed on the automation.
