Before installation
1. Check door system
DANGER!
Balancing springs are under high tension. Adjusting or loosening the balancing springs can cause serious injuries! For your own safety, only have
work on the balancing springs of the door and, if necessary, maintenance and repair work carried out by an expert!
Never attempt to replace, readjust, repair or relocate the balancing springs for the door or their brackets yourself. Also check the entire door sys
-
tem (joints, door bearings, cables, springs and fasteners) for wear and possible damage. Check for existing rust, corrosion, and cracks. Faults in the
door system or misaligned doors can result in serious injury! Do not use the garage door system if repair or adjustment work must be carried out!
The construction of the opener is not designed for the operation of heavy-duty doors, i.e. doors that can no longer be opened or closed by hand
or can only be opened or closed with difficulty. The door must be in a mechanically fault-free condition so that it can be easily operated by hand
(EN12604). Raise the door approx. half of the opening travel and release it. The door should remain in this position and not move down or up. If
the door does move in either direction, there is a risk that the balancing springs/weights are not properly adjusted or are defective. In this case,
increased wear and malfunction of the garage door can be expected. Check whether the door can be opened and closed properly. Disable the
mechanical locks of the door that are not required for operation with a garage door opener. This includes in particular the locking mechanisms of
the door lock.
Switch to the picture section for assembly and commissioning. Refer to the relevant text section if indicated by a capitalized note for the text
reference.
2. Required clearance
The clearance between the highest point at the door run and the ceiling must be at least 30 mm. If the clearance is less, the opener can be mount
-
ed behind the open door, provided there is enough space. In these cases, an extended door attachment must be used, which must be ordered sep
-
arately. The necessary socket for the electrical connection should be mounted approx. 50 cm next to the opener head (see chapter Mains voltage).
Check these dimensions!
Important note: The use of a photocell (available separately) is recommended as an additional safety device.
3. Emergency release
For garages without a second access, an emergency release is required for mechanical unlocking to prevent possible lockout in the event of a
mains voltage failure. The emergency release is door-specific and must be ordered separately. Check the emergency unlocking device for proper
functioning on a monthly basis.
