key.
• fit the special key, located inside the upright, in the release
hole (fig.15, ref.A) and turn it clockwise for a few turns until you
reach the mechanical stop limit.
• move the beam manually until the mechanical release is felt
to uncouple.
• turn the key clockwise again to release the system.
Attention: There is a round edge on the release key, which
must rest on the shaft (fig. 15 ref.B). When this position is
reached, stop turning the release key to avoid jeopardising
the efficiency of the system.
• close the rear hood of the upright.
8. AVAILABLE ACCESSORIES
SKIRT KIT
The skirt kit increases visibility of the beam.
Available length: 2/3 metres.
Attention: If a skirt kit is installed, the balancing spring must be
adapted.
END FOOT
The end foot allows the beam to rest when closing and thus
prevents the profile bending downward.
Attention: If a foot is installed, the balancing spring must be
readjusted.
FORK-SUPPORT
The fork has two functions:
• it prevents the beam, when closing, from bending and splitting
if its end is stressed by extraneous forces.
• it allows the beam to rest when closed and thus prevents the
profile bending downward.
POSITIONING THE FORK-SUPPORT FOUNDATION PLATE
To position the fork-support foundation plate, refer to fig.23 where:
L = beam length (in mm)
A = L - 500 (in mm)
N.B.: For correct alignment, we advise you to position the fork-
support after fully installing the beam - in this way, the beam
will be correctly positioned at the centre of the fork.
All values in mm
N.B.: The values are purely indicative.
9. MAINTENANCE
To ensure correct long-term operation, carry out the following
checks every six months:
• check if all the safety devices in use are connected and
efficient.
• check if the anti-crushing clutch is correctly set.
• check the condition and efficiency of the earth connection.
• check if all screws are tight.
• check if the system is correctly balanced.
• check if the spring is in good condition
