3.1 GENERAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
 The operator must read the entire user manual before the gate is used for the first time. The
instructions stated in the user manual must be observed and complied with. All other forms of
use can cause unexpected hazards and are forbidden.
 It is forbidden to apply the drive unit to gates other than those stated in this manual, without
Heras' permission.
 Applying a third-party drive unit and/or anti-crushing safety protection device may affect
safety and will invalidate the CE mark.
 The gate must only be put into use if all safety facilities are in place and connected, and work
properly.
 All faults which might present a source of danger to the user or to third persons must be
eliminated immediately.
 All warnings and safety notices on the equipment must be in place and clearly legible at all
times.
 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
behavior. In the event of frost, check this before commissioning the gate. 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.
 Climbing the gate is strictly forbidden as people climbing the gate could be hurt if the gate is
started unexpectedly.
 Closing the gate infill openings in any way, such as by means of banners, advertising signs
etc, is not allowed as this may negatively affect the safe operation of the gate.
 All alterations or extensions to the gate must be carried out by qualified personnel using parts
which the manufacturer has defined as suitable for such alterations or extensions. Any failure
to comply with these instructions will be considered as non-compliant behavior and will
invalidate the manufacturer's guarantee, as a result of which the risk entirely transfers to the
user.
 Improper usage or servicing or ignoring the operating instructions can be a source of danger
for persons, and/or result in material damage.
 If the meaning of any part of these installation and operating instructions is not clear, then
please contact your supplier before you use the equipment.
