1.3 • Operation warnings
• The product should not be used by children or people with impaired physical,
sensorial or mental capacities or who have not received adequate training in the
safe use of the product.
• Do not allow children to play with fixed control devices.
• Take care in the vicinity of the shutter / awning / screen when moving, and keep at
a safe distance until the ma noeuvre is completed.
• Frequently check the automation, to detect for imbalance, any signs of wear or dam-
age to cables or springs (if present). Do not use the automation if adjustments or re-
pairs are required. In this case always contact a specialised technician to solve the

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION AND
INTENDED USE
This product is a tubular motor designed for the automation of a shutter, sun awning
or solar screen. Any other use is strictly prohibited! The manufacturer
declines all liability for damage resulting from improper use of the
product and other than as specified in this manual.
The product has the following features:
- is powered by the mains electricity (verify compatibility on the label attached to the
motor);
- designed to move the shutter in Ascent and Descent by means of wall-mounted push-
buttons (not supplied in pack);
- is equipped with an electromechanical system that automatically shuts off power sup-
ply when the shutter reaches the set limit positions (fig. 3): position "0" (shutter totally
retracted) and position "1" (shutter totally extended);
- the entire tubular motor is installed inside the shutter roller and the external face of this
product can be mounted directly alongside the casing or by means of the relative sup-
port brackets (not supplied in pack);
- it is designed for residential use, i.e. discontinuous. It guarantees a continuous operat-
ing time of maximum 4 minutes;
- it is fitted with a thermal cut-out which in the event of overheating due to use of the au-
tomation in excess of the set limits, automatically shuts off the power supply and only
restores operation when the temperature returns within the normal range.

PRODUCT INSTALLATION
3.1 • Preliminary checks – Application limits
Caution! – Before proceeding with installation, verify the following.
- There are various versions of this product available, each designed to manage a spe-
cific motor torque. Each is designed to automate shutters / awnings / scre ens with
specific dimensions and weight. Therefore, be fore proceeding with installation, to
check that the characteristics of this motor (motor tor que, rotation speed and operating
time) are suitable for automating your shutter / awning / screen. Caution! - Nev-
er install a motor with a greater motor torque than that required to
move your shutter / awning / screen.
Check the diameter of the winding roller. This must be chosen according to the motor
torque, as follows:
- for motors that are size "M" (Ø = 45 mm) and have a torque of up to 30 Nm (includ-
ed), the minimum inside diameter of the winding roller must be 52 mm;
- for motors that are size "M" (Ø = 45 mm) and have a torque of up to 30 Nm (includ-
ed), the minimum inside diameter of the winding roller must be 60 mm.
3.2 • Tubular motor installation
To install the product, follow the phases shown in fig. 5 and observe the following
warnings:
- Incorrect installation can lead to serious injury.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
4.1 • Installing safety devices in the electrical
mains
In compliance with the electric installation rules, in the network that powers the motor,
a short circuit protection device and a disconnection device from the mains electricity
must be envisioned.
