For jack-knife doors, the same instructions apply as for single-panel doors as explained in the previous pages. Only please note that
with articulated doors as the above type, it is recommended to fix the operator so that the shaft and the torsion bars are 80-100 mm
below the door hinge centre line. Pic.19

When very large doors are involved with a service door in the middle, it is recommended to install two operators Aproli 480 on to the
door sides without connecting the shaft inner ends. Fixing dimensions and measurements are as explained before in the previous
application drawings. It is also recommended to fit the service door with a safety microswitch as shown in pic.18
When two operators are required for one door, it is recommended to install the control panel “Elpro 13 CEI” and one pair of photocells
Trifo 11. These are to be fixed on to the “counterweight case” 40 cm from ground level.

For the installation of Aproli 480 on to garage doors with upper track follow the same instructions as explained before; the shaft ie. the
torsion fulcrum must coincide with the centre line of the door, right in the middle between upper and lower guide rollers. See Pic. 20
Please note, once Aproli 480 has been fixed, unscrew the air bleed screw by one turn. This screw is fitted on the cap of the oil container,
where the voltage supplying cable is led to the motor. Pic.21 Should the operator «Aproli 480» be removed for maintenance or repairing
tighten the screw «S» to prevent oil from coming out during handling.
