Door/ General Tips/ Safety concerns
• If there are sharp edges after drilling the cable outlets, chamfer the edges to avoid damage to the cables.
• For enhanced security and vandalism protection, always mount the operator access in the interior of a
building whenever possible.
• Make sure the ambient temperature is in the range specified in section Technical specification.
• Make sure that the power is off before installing.
• Make sure that the door leaf and the wall are properly reinforced at the installation points.
• Unpack the operator and make sure that all parts are delivered in accordance with the packing note and that
the operator is in good mechanical condition.
• Ensure proper material is being used for the door leaves and that there are no sharp edges. Projecting parts shall
not create any potential hazards. If glass is used bare glass edges shall not come in contact with other glass.
Toughened or laminated glass are suitable glasses.
• Ensure that entrapment between the driven part and the surrounding fixed parts due to the opening
movement of the driven part is avoided. The following distances are considered sufficient to avoid
entrapments for the parts of the body identified;
• For fingers, a distance greater than 1” (25mm) or less than 5/16” (8mm).
• For heads, a distance greater than 8” (200mm).
• For feet, a distance greater than 2” (50mm).
• For the whole body, a distance greater than 20” (500mm).
• Danger points shall be safe guarded up to a height of 8’ (2.5 m) from the floor level.
• The operator shall not be used with a door set incorporating a wicket door.
