SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
THESE ARE IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS.
FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS AS INCORRECT INSTALLATION CAN LEAD TO SEVERE INJURY OR DEATH
SAVE these instructions
CAUTION
The equipment has been designed and tested to offer safe service provided it is installed, operated, maintained and tested in strict
accordance with the instructions and warnings contained in this manual.
When you see this Signal Word on the following pages, it will alert you to the
possibility of damage to your commercial door and/or the commercial door operator
if you do not comply with the cautionary statements that accompany it.
•
Keep commercial door balanced. Sticking or binding doors must be repaired. Commercial doors, door springs, pulleys, brackets
and their hardware are under extreme tension and can cause serious personal injury. Do not attempt to loosen, move or adjust
them. Call for commercial door service.
•
Do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing while installing or servicing a commercial door operator.
•
To avoid serious personal injury from entanglement, remove all ropes connected to the commercial door before installing the door
operator.
•
After the installation a final test of the full function of the system and the full function of the safety devices must be done.
•
When operating a biased-off switch, make sure that other persons are kept away.
•
The operator cannot be used with a driven part incorporating a wicket door (unless the operator cannot be operated with the
wicket door open).
•
Operator may become hot during operation. Appropriate clearance and/or shielding should be supplied by the installer to ensure
any cabling, wiring and/or other items cannot come in contact with the operator. If temperature rise exceeds 50°C all fixed wiring
insulation must be protected, for example, by insulating sleeving having an appropriate temperature rating.
•
Do not allow children to play with operator wall controls or remote transmitters. Keep remote transmitters away from children.
•
Permanently fasten all supplied labels adjacent to the wall control as a convenient reference and reminder of safe operating
procedures.
•
Disengage all existing commercial door locks to avoid damage to commercial door. Install the wall control (or any additional push
buttons) in a location where the commercial door is visible during operation . Do not allow children to operate push button(s) or
remote transmitter(s). Serious personal injury from a closing commercial door may result from misuse of the operator.
•
Activate operator only when the door is in full view, free of obstructions and operator is properly adjusted. No one should enter or
leave the building while the door is in motion.
•
The actuating member of a biased-off switch is to be located within direct sight of the door but away from moving parts. Unless it
is key operated, it is to be installed at a minimum height of 1500mm and not accessible to the public.
•
Make sure that people who install, maintain or operate the door follow these instructions. Keep these instructions in a safe place so
that you can refer to them quickly when you need to.
•
This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack
of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person
responsible for their safety. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
•
Use the operator for its intended purpose. GLM6 series controls are designed for operating Grifco operators on spring balanced
roller shutters, spring balanced roller doors and counterweighted bi-fold and vertical lift doors.
•
If the operator is installed at a height less than 2.5 metres from floor level or any other level from which the unit can be accessed
(eg mezzanine) the installer is responsible to fit guards to the operator to prevent access to the chain drive.
•
Automatic Drive - Keep away from the area of the door as it may operate unexpectedly.
•
Ensure that entrapment when operating the door in the open direction is avoided.
•
If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly qualified persons in order to
avoid a hazard.
•
Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local building and electrical codes. Connect the power supply cord only to
properly earthed mains.
•
Moisture and water can destroy the electronic components. Make sure under all circumstances that water moisture or storage
moisture cannot penetrate the electronics. The same applies for openings and cable entries.
•
An electrician must disconnect electric power to the commercial door operator before making repairs or removing covers.
