• The gate must be able to move freely without there being obstacles in the
gate opening passage or anywhere else on the moving trajectory of the gate.
Do not stick any objects through, over or under the gate which might block
the gate.
• The gate running surface must always be free from snow, ice or dirt that
might affect its sliding behaviour. If the running surface is blocked, the gate
will not move at all or will not complete its movement. An irregular running
surface may cause damage to the drive and/or road wheels.
• In certain circumstances, the sun can temporarily distort the gate. When
closing the gate, the leaf is guided to its neutral position. When opening the
gate, the leaf will move around somewhat. This has no adverse consequen-
ces for the construction.
• Climbing the gate is strictly forbidden as people climbing the gate could be
hurt if the gate is started unexpectedly.
SAFETY DURING INSTALLATION, MAINTENANCE AND DISASSEMBLY
• When working on or cleaning the gate, make sure that the gate leaf is
always blocked against unintentional movements.
• The EN 13241 and EN 12604 standards must be taken into consideration
during installation. To achieve a good safety level, both the above standards
and the national regulations must be taken into account in non-EC countries.
The Delta and uGate have highly tensioned cables fitted in the bottom rail.
If these cables are damaged, they can snap with great force. This can lead
to serious injury. Therefore, it is prohibited to drill into or grind these rails.
!! Only people trained by Heras are allowed to disassemble the bottom rail.
If the gate is damaged, always contact the supplier for an inspection.
