1.1 SAFETY PRESCRIPTIONS
This installation manual is addressed exclusively to
professionally skilled personnel. Read all the instructions
carefully before starting the installation procedures. Any
operations that are not expressly set down in these
instructions are to be considered prohibited; improper use
may result in damage to the product and place persons
and property at risk. The manufacturer declines all liability
for failure to observe best practices in gate construction
and for any possible deformation that may occur during
use of the product. Store this manual in a safe place
for future reference. The design and construction of the
devices of which model FORT 3500 is composed and
this manual are in full compliance with statutory legislation.
In consideration of potential hazards that may arise during
the installation and use of FORT 3500, the installation
procedures must be carried out in full compliance with
the applicable laws, standards and regulations; namely:
1.2 INSTALLATION PRESCRIPTIONS
• Before starting the installation procedures make sure
you have any additional devices and materials that may
be required to complete the automation system with
FORT 3500 in consideration of the specific application.
• The automation system must not be used until the
gate has been made safe.
• Dispose of packaging materials in compliance with
local regulations.
1.3 OPERATING PRESCRIPTIONS
•
No modifications can be made to any part of the
product unless specified in this manual. Unauthorized
modification of the product is likely to lead to malfunctions
and risks. The manufacturer declines all liability for
damage caused by unauthorized modifications.
• The parts of the automation system must never be
immersed in water or other liquids. During the installation
procedures ensure that no liquids penetrate inside the
control unit or other open devices.
• If liquids penetrate any parts of the automation system
disconnect the electrical power supply immediately
and consult the technical service; the use of FORT
3500 in such conditions may give rise to potentially
hazardous situations.
• Keep all parts of FORT 3500 away from heat sources
and open flames; exposure to heat or flames may
damage the devices and cause faults, fire, or hazardous
situations.
• When the equipment remains unused for a long time,
remove the optional battery and store it in a dry place
to avoid the risk of leakage of harmful substances.
• Connect the control unit exclusively to an electric
power supply line equipped with an efficient protective
earth conductor.
• Any operations that require the housing of FORT 3500
to be opened must be performed with the control unit
and the electrical power supply disconnected; if the
disconnect device is not clearly visible from where
you are working, attach a warning notice to the effect:
“WARNING-MAINTENANCE IN PROGRESS”.
• In the case of tripping of circuit breakers or blowing of
fuses, find the fault and remedy it before resetting the
circuit breaker or changing the fuse.
• If the fault cannot be remedied using the information
given in this manual, consult the technical service.
