11.1  ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

The Scheduled Maintenance Table 

  

1 4

 lists the operations which 

must be performed on a regular basis in order to keep the automation 

system working reliably and safely; these are given purely as a guide-

line and should not be considered exhaustive.  The installer/machine 

manufacturer is responsible for drawing up the maintenance plan 

for the automation system, supplementing this list or modifying the 

maintenance operations on the basis of the machine characteristics.

Check the wheels, ensuring that they are intact, correctly fastened and free of 

deformation, wear and rust.

12

Check the rack, ensuring it is straight, spaced correctly from the pinion along its 

entire length, and correctly fastened to the gate.

12

Cantilever gates: check the solidity of the guide system for the suspended leaf 

and the counterweight, if present.

12

Check the containing guide and the anti-tipping column, ensuring they are 

correctly fastened and intact.

12

Perform a general clean of the area of movement of the gate.

12

Gearmotor

Check that the gearmotor is intact and correctly fastened.

12

Check that the pinion is correctly keyed to the shaft and tightened correctly.

12

Check that the hand guard around the pinion is present and intact.

12

Check that it is irreversible.

12

Check that there is no loss of grease.

12

Check the condition of the gearmotor cables, the cable glands and junction boxes. 12

Electronic equipment

Check that the power supply and connecting cables and the cable glands are 

intact.

12

Check that the connectors and wiring are intact.

Check that there are no signs of overheating, burning etc. of electronic com-

ponents.

12

Check the operation of the circuit breaker and RCD.

12

Check that the limit switch is intact and that it operates correctly.

12

Control devices

Check that the installed devices and radio controls are in good condition and that 

they operate correctly.

12

Sensitive edges

Check condition, fastening and correct operation.

6

Deformable edges

Check that they are intact and correctly fastened.

12

Photocells

Check condition, fastening and correct operation.

6

Check the posts, ensuring that they are intact, correctly fastened and free of 

deformation etc.

6

Flashing light

Check condition, fastening and correct operation.

12

Electric locks

Check condition, fastening and correct operation.

12

Clean the seats.

12

Access control

Check that the gate opens only when an authorised user is recognised.

12

Complete automation system

Check that the automation system operates correctly, following the set logic, 

when using the various control devices.

12

Check that the gate moves correctly - smooth, regular and without abnormal 

noise.

12

Check that both the opening and closing speed are correct and that the stop 

positions and slow-downs provided for are respected.

12

Check that the manual release operates correctly: when the release mechanism 

is activated, it must only be possible to move the gate manually.

6

Check that the caps on the locks are present.

Check that the maximum force required for manual movement of the gate is 

below 225 N in residential areas and 260 N in industrial or commercial settings. 6

Check that the safety edges operate correctly when faced with an obstacle.

6

Check that the 

encoder

, if present, functions correctly when an obstacle is 

detected.

6

Check that each pair of photocells is working correctly.

6

Check that there is no optical/light interference between the pairs of photocells. 6

Check the force limitation curve (standard EN 12453).

6

Check that all necessary signage and warnings are present, intact and legible: 

residual risks, exclusive use etc.

12

Check that the gate's CE marking and the DANGER, AUTOMATIC MOVEMENT 

warning signage is present, intact and legible.

12

 

F

Before performing any maintenance, disconnect the mains power 

supply.  If the disconnecting switch is not visible, apply a "ATTEN-

TION - Maintenance in progress" sign.  Restore the power supply once 

maintenance is complete and after tidying up the area.

 

!

Maintenance must be performed by the installer/maintenance techni-

cian.
Comply with all the safety instructions and recommendations provided 

in this manual.
Close off the work site and prevent access/transit. Do not leave the 

work site unattended.
The work area must be kept tidy and clear upon completing mainte-

nance.
Before starting activities, wait for the components subject to heating 

to cool down.
Do not modify the original components in any way.
FAAC S.p.A. disclaims any liability for damage caused by components 

that are modified or tampered with.

L

i

The warranty shall be forfeited in the event of tampering with com-

ponents.
For replacements, use only original spare parts GENIUS.

Structures

Check the slab, the structures and components of the building/fence adjacent 

to the automation system, ensuring there is no damage, cracking or subsidence. 12

Check the gate's area of movement, ensuring it is free from obstacles, objects or 

deposits which would reduce the effectiveness of the safety measures.

12

Check that there are no gaps in the perimeter fence and that any protective grilles 

in the area where it overlaps with the mobile leaf are intact.

12

Ensure that there are no sharp protrusions which could represent a perforation 

or hooking hazard.

12

Gate

Check the gate, ensuring it is intact and free of deformations, rust etc.

12

Check that there are no slots/openings on the leaf and that any protective grilles 

are intact.

12

Check that screws and bolts are correctly tightened.

12

Check that the sliding guides are straight and not excessively worn.

12

Check that the bearings are in good condition and there is no friction.

12

For cantilever systems, check the solidity of the guide system for the suspended 

leaf and the counterweight, where present.
