Proper use and misuse
Proper use
In the case of normally built front and secondary entrance doors
in building construction, door sashes fitted with MACO door
locks are moved by actuating a handle or a cylinder. This moves
the door through its turning position to the inside or outside, or
in a closed or locked position within the door frame.
When closing a sash and locking the hardware, it is usually
necessary to overcome the counterforce of a seal.
WARNING!
Risk of injury and property damage due to improper opening
and closing of sashes!
Improper opening and closing of the sashes can lead to serious
bodily injuries and considerable damage to property!
Therefore:
› It is important to make sure that the sash is guided by hand
through the entire range of motion, at very low speed, and
contacts to the frame without any resistance to the closing
position!
› Make sure that the sash never hits or swings in an uncontrolled
way (e.g. with wind)!
Any use or operation of the products that goes beyond or
deviates from the intended use shall be deemed to be improper
use. This can cause injuries to people or damage to other goods!
WARNING!
DANGER WHEN MISUSED!
Misuse of front or secondary entrance doors can lead to dangerous
situations, such as injury to people and damage to other goods. The
following uses must especially be refrained from (see also safety
instructions):
› The deliberate or uncontrolled slamming or pressing of the sash
against the reveal. This can damage or even destroy the hardware,
frame materials or other individual parts of the doors.
› Putting obstacles in the opening area between the frame and sash!
› The intentional application of or negligence with extra loads acting
on the door sash.
› Closing the sash with high force. The sash must always flow freely
into the frame without any force.
