6  START-UP
The start-up phase is very important to ensure maximum security and compliance to regulations, including all the requirements of EN 
12445 standard which establishes the test methods for testing the automation for gates.
DEA System reminds that all installation, maintenance, cleaning or repair operations on any part of the system must be performed 
exclusively by qualifi ed personnel who must be responsible of all texts requie by the eventual risk;
6.1 Installation test
The testing operation is essential in order to verify the correct installation of the system. DEA System wants to summarize the proper 
testing of all the automation in 4 easy steps:
•  Make sure that you comply strictly as described in paragraph 2 “WARNINGS SUMMARY”;
•  Test the opening and closing making sure that the movement of the boom is as expected.
  We suggest in this regard to perform various tests to assess the smoothness of the gate and defects in assembly or adjustment;
•  Ensure that all safety devices connected work properly;
•  Perform the measurement of impact forces in accordance with the standard 12445 to fi nd the setting that ensures compliance with 
the limits set by the standard EN12453.
WARNING  Using spare parts not indicated by DEA System and/or incorrect re-assembly can create a risk to people, animals and 
property and also damage the product. For this reason, always use only the parts indicated by DEA System and scrupulously follow all 
assembly instructions.
6.2 Unlocking and Manual operation
In the event of malfunctions or simple power failure, release the motor (Pic. 3) and perform the manual operation of the boom. 
The knowledge of the unlocking operation is very important, because in times of emergency the lack of timeliness in acting on such 
a device can be dangerous.
WARNING  The effi cancy and safety of manual operation of the automation is guaranteed by DEA System only if the installation has 
been installed correctly and with original accessories.
WARNING  Avoid any intervention in the presence of voltage. Opening the door of the box presents a danger of injury to the hands, 
hold the boom to prevent dangerous movements of the internal mechanisms.
7  MAINTENANCE
Good preventive maintenance and regular inspection ensure 
long working life. In the table below you will fi nd a listo f inspections/
maintenance operations to be programmed and executed periodi-
cally.
Consult the TROUBLE-SHOOTING” table whenever anomalies are 
observed in order to fi nd the solution to the problem and contact 
DEA System directly whenever the solution required is not provided.
INTERVENTION TYPE PERIODICITY
cleaning of external surfaces 6 months
checking of screw tightening 6 months
checking of release mechanism operation 6 months
greasing of articulated joint 1 year
Checking of boom balancing 1 year
TROUBLE-SHOOTING
Description Possible solutions
When the opening command is given, the barrier doesn’t 
move and the electrical motor doesn’t work.
The operator is not receiving correct power supply. Check all connections, fuses and the 
power supply cable conditions and replace or repair if necessary.
When the opening command is given, the motor starts but 
the boom fails to move.
Check that the unlocking system is closed.
Check that the electronic device for the force adjust is in good conditions.
The barrier doesn’t perfectly stop in vertical or horizontal 
position or pushes the supports.
Check the boom balancing.
The barrier doesn’t perfectly stop in vertical or horizontal 
position or pushes the supports.
Adjust the mechanical limit switches.
