Important! Install the ChickSafe Eco and attach the door BEFORE installing batteries.
Failure to observe this may cause incorrect operation and possible damage.
(See page 5).
The ChickSafe is supplied pre-set to be attached to a FULLY OPEN DOOR. Failure to
observe this will cause incorrect operation and possible damage.
(See page 5).

Warning - Risk of injury! Keep fingers clear of moving door and cord. Motor may start without warning.
If using with an alternative door, ensure the maximum door weight of 8lbs (4kg) is not exceeded as this
will cause damage to the motor and invalidate the warranty! Note that wooden doors are heavier when
wet.
Please note the maximum door lifting height is
15” (
400mm). Do not exceed this as operation will be
incorrect and the cord may become detached.
Check the sliding door to make sure it runs smoothly and reliably both upwards and downwards. The
ChickSafe uses gravity alone to close the door.
To mount the ChickSafe further away from the door, an additional length of cord may be attached. For
helpful information see our ChickSafe
