SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
During operation, the gate should not under any circumstances obstruct public path ways and roads (public area). When using tools
and small parts to install or carry out repair work on a gate, exercise caution and do not wear rings, watches or loose clothing.
To avoid serious personal injury due to entrapments, remove any locking device fitted to the gate in order to prevent damage to the
gate.
Installation and wiring must be in compliance with your local building and electrical installation regulations. Power cables must only be
connected to a properly earthed supply.
Disconnect electric power to the system before installation, maintenance, repairs or removing covers. A dual pole isolating switch
must be provided to the mains power supply (permanently-wired installation) to guarantee all-pole disconnection (isolating switch or by
a separate fuse). The repairs and electrical installations may be performed only by an authorized electrician. Emergency Stop Button
must be installed for emergency case based on the risk assessment.
Any possible entrapment caused by the moving gate leaf(s) between gate & walls must be eliminated by respecting the given safety
distances in accordance with the AS/NZS 60335.1 in conjunction with AS/NZS 60335.2.103 and/or with safety devices (e.g. safe
edge).
Testing of the safety function of the drive system is recommended to be carried out at least once a month. Refer also to
manufacturers instruction of the gate system components.
After the installation a final test of the full function of the system and the safety devices must be made.
After installation and commissioning, all users must be instructed in the function and operation of the slide gate opener.
It is important to make sure that the gate always runs smoothly. Gates which stick or jam must be repaired immediately. Employ a
qualified technician to repair the gate, never attempt to repair it yourself. This device is not intended for use by persons (including
children) with restricted physical, sensory or mental abilities or lack of experience or knowledge, unless they are supervised by a
person responsible for their safety or have received instruction in how to use the device. If necessary, control equipment MUST be
mounted within sight of the gate and out of reach of children. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the
device. Do not allow children to operate push button(s) or remote(s). Misuse of the gate opener system can result in serious injury.
