General Safety Precautions; Machinery Directive; Manufacturer's Declaration - DITEC RADIUS Manuel D'installation

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

This installation manual is intended for professionally
competent personnel only.
Installation, electrical connections and adjustments must be
performed in accordance with Good Working Methods and in
compliance with applicable regulations. Before installing the
product, carefully read the instructions. Bad installation could
be hazardous.
The packaging materials (plastic, polystyrene, etc.) should not
be discarded in the environment or left within reach of children,
as these are a potential source of hazard. Before installing the
product, make sure it is in perfect condition.
Do not install the product in an explosive environment and atmo-
sphere: gas or inflammable fumes are a serious hazard risk.
Before installing the motors, make all structural changes relating
to safety clearances and protection or segregation of all areas
where there is risk of being crushed, cut or dragged, and danger
areas in general.
Make sure the existing structure is up to standard in terms of
strength and stability.
The motor manufacturer is not responsible for failure to use
Good Working Methods in building the frames to be motorised
or for any deformation occurring during use.
The safety devices (photocells, safety edges, emergency stops,
etc.) must be installed taking into account: applicable laws and
directives, Good Working Methods, installation premises, system
operating logic and the forces developed by the motorised door
or gate.
The safety devices must protect any areas where the risk exists
of being crushed, cut or gragged, or where there are any other
risks generated by the motorised door or gate. Apply hazard
area notices required by applicable regulations.
Each installation must clearly show the identification details of
the motorised door or gate.
Before making power connections, make sure the plate
details correspond to those of the power mains.
Fit an omnipolar disconnection switch with a contact opening
gap of at least 3 mm. Make sure an adequate residual current
circuit breaker and overcurrent cutout are fitted upstream of
the electrical system. When necessary, connect the motorised
door or gate to a reliable earth system made in accordance with
applicable safety regulations. During installation, maintenance
and repair, interrupt the power supply before opening the lid to
access the electrical parts.
To handle electronic parts, wear earthed antistatic con-
ductive bracelets.
The motor manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event
of component parts being fitted that are not compatible with the
safe an correct operation.
For repairs or replacements of products only original spare parts
must be used.
The installer shall provide all information relating to automatic,
manual and emergency operation of the motorised door or gate,
and provide the user with operating instructions.

MACHINERY DIRECTIVE

Pursuant to Machine Directive (98/37/EC) the installer who mo-
torises a door or gate has the same obligations as a machine
manufacturer and shall:
- prepare technical documentation containing the documents
indicated on Schedule V of the Machine Directive;
(The technical documentation shall be kept and placed at
the disposal of competent national authorities for at least ten
years starting on the date of manufacture of the motorised
door);
- draw up the EC declaration of conformity according to Sche-
dule II-A of the Machine Directive;
- affix the CE mark on the motorised door pursuant to para.
1.7.3 of Schedule I of the Machine Directive.
For more details, refer to the "Guidelines for producing technical
documentation" available on Internet at the following address:

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Service class: 2 (minimum 10÷5 years of working life with
10÷20 cycles per day).
Applications: LIGHT (For single family type installations with
infrequent vehicle or pedestrian access).
- The operating performance specifications refer to the rec-
ommended weight (about 2/3 of maximum allowed weight).
Use with maximum allowed weight could reduce the above
performance specifications.
- The service class, operating times and number of consecu-
tive cycles are merely approximate. These have been statisti-
cally determined in average conditions of use and are not
certain for each single case. They refer to the period when
the product operates without the need for special mainte-
nance.
- Each automatic entrance features variable factors such as:
friction, balancing and environmental conditions that can
substantially change both the duration and operating quality
of the automatic entrance or part of its components (including
automatic system). It is up to the installer to adopt adequate
safety coefficients for each single installation.

MANUFACTURER'S DECLARATION

(Directive 98/37/EC, Annex II, sub B)
Manufacturer: DITEC S.p.A.
Address: via Mons. Banfi, 3
21042 Caronno P.lla (VA) - ITALY
Herewith declares that the electromechanical automatic system
RADIUS
- is intended to be incorpored into machinery or to be assem-
bled with other machinery to constitute machinery convered
by Directive 98/37/EC;
- is in conformity with the provisions of the following other EEC
directives:
Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive 89/336/EEC;
Low Voltage Directive 73/23/EEC;
and furthermore declares that it is not allowed to put the ma-
chinery into service until the machinery into which it is to be
incorporated or of which it is to be a component has been found
and declared to be in conformity with the provisions of Directive
98/37/EC and with national implementing legislation.
