General Safety Statement

Our foremost concern is your safety and the safety of others associated with grain handling equipment. 
This manual is to help you understand safe operating procedures and some problems that may be 
encountered by the operator and other personnel.

As owner and/or operator, you are responsible to know what requirements, hazards, and precautions exist 
and inform all personnel associated with the equipment or in the area. Safety precautions may be required 
from the personnel. Avoid any alterations to the equipment, which may produce a very dangerous 
situation, where SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH may occur.

Electrical Safety

An adequate and safe power supply to the Curtain Controller unit is essential for safety. A competent and 
qualified electrician must undertake all electrical wiring. All wiring is to be installed according to the 
National Standards and Regulations relevant to your Country and Region.

Be sure to properly ground all motors and electrical equipment. Permanent wiring must be employed if 
required by local codes. Permanent wiring must also be installed according to applicable local codes.

User’s Manual

This manual contains information and instructions essential to the safe installation and use of the
Curtain Controller System. Read this manual thoroughly 

before

 attempting any installation or use 

of the Curtain Controller System. Keep this manual with the Curtain Controller System or in a location 
where it can be readily accessed. Failure to read this manual and its safety instructions is a misuse 
of the equipment.

Correct Uses of Your Curtain Controller

The Curtain Controller System is designed solely for the purpose of controlling vent doors in livestock 
(swine and chicken) houses. Use of the system in any other way is a misuse of the system and may 
endanger safety and health.

Only genuine AP/Cumberland parts are to be used in the installation and use of the Curtain Controller 
System. Use of other non-genuine parts is a misuse of the system and may lead to dangerous situations 
imperilling the safety and health of you and others.

Controls

The Curtain Controller is designed for use with manual or automatic temperature control. GSI 
recommends the use of genuine GSI controls. Use of any controllers that do not meet this specification 
can pose a risk to health and safety and will lead to malfunction and failure of the Curtain Controller.

This machine is not designed for use in atmospheres where there is a risk of explosion. Use of the Curtain 
Controller System in such an environment is prohibited. If in doubt, contact your dealer or GSI.

Safety Guards

The Curtain Controller System contains many moving and electrical parts, which will cause serious injury 
or death if touched. Guards are placed on the machine for your protection. Operating the machine 
at any time with guards removed or incorrectly fitted is a serious misuse of the machine and 
endangers safety.
