Installation recommendations
Remember there are specific standards that have to be strictly followed regarding the safety rules of electrical
installations and automatic gates and doors.
As for the legal requirements and standards that must be adhered to, please take notice of the following points to
ensure maximum safety and reliability of your installation.
1. Before installing, check the surrounding environment. Carefully evaluate any hazards which could cause physical
damage (transiting vehicles, parts of trees falling etc.), possible contact with persons’ bodies (insects, leaves, etc.),
flooding hazards, or any other exceptional events.
2.Check the main voltage numbers is the same as the numbers that are given on the rating plate and in this manual.
3. Check and make sure if there is suitable electrical protection against short circuits/power spikes and proper earthed
on the main supply.
Remember the unit having main voltage running through it (electrocution hazard, fire hazard).
4. Take care with the control unit; the parts may be subject to damage if the control unit is abused.
5. Make sure that you have all the necessary materials, and they are suitable for this kind of use.
6. Read all the instructions thoroughly, and make sure they are understood before attempting to install the opener.
7. Before starting the installation carefully analyze all the risks relating to automating the door. Verify that the door is
automated in a sound condition and that the mechanisms are in good working order. Observe the safety margins and
minimum distances.
8.Carefully evaluate the safety devices to be installed and the right place to install them; always install an emergency
stop device for power interruption to the opener if it is required.
9. Once the risks have been analyzed, install the opener and relative safety devices, emergency stop and/or
photoelectric cells.
Important note: As for additional safety rules, we recommend the fitting of Photo Electric safety beams on all
installations.
10. While installing the opener, strictly follow all the instructions given in the instruction manual. If some points or
procedures in this manual are not very clear, do not install the unit until all doubts have been cleared up with our
technical department.
