OPERATION OF A NANAWALL CSW75 – FOLDING 
CENTER PIVOT FRAMELESS SYSTEM

 

For opening and closing the folding center pivot frameless 
system, please observe the special notes on the following 
pages in as far as they relate to your unit. 

When operating the system similar to any other 
door, please do not place your fingers between 
the panels/pivot points. Be very careful when 
you operate the panels and avoid glass to glass 
contact between the panels!!

Only properly trained personnel should operate the unit. 
No children should operate the unit.

Do not force the system if not operating properly. If you

 

encounter any difficulties in operating the unit, please

 

have it inspected by a NanaWall 

C

ertified 

I

nstaller as 

soon as possible.

The correct sequence of opening and closing of panels is 
dependent on the configuration ordered. Panels must be 
opened and closed in the right order in a gentle manner.

Opening and Closing a Unit.

1.

If available, please open the single/double action end
panels, first.

2. Disengage all of the locking points on each folding

panel. Operation of each type of lock as follows:

a. Profile Cylinder – turn with key or thumb turn.
b. Quick Release Lock – pull knob and lift up/down.

3. Now you can open the folding panels by slightly

pushing against 2 adjacent panels from the front,
where the hinge part with hinge pin is located in your
direction. The panels fold together and you can push
them gently from the side using both hands.

4. Note that there is a carrier at each upper center of a

folding panel and no guide at the bottom that could
prevent the panels from swaying. Do not move more
than 4 panels at a time.

5. When you have a swing panel attached to a folding

panel with carrier, make sure that you open the swing
panel 180°, first and keep it in this position when you
fold the panels to the side.

6. Do not force. Avoid any pendulum movements,

otherwise the bottom rail could damage the floor.

7.

If there are more panels stacking to one side or both
sides (left/right with up to 4 panels), please be sure to
handle the chain of panels with care and fold them to
the correct side.

8. For closing, please proceed in reversed order as

described above. To pull the panels from the stacked
position, you will need to grasp the first panel
by the edges with both hands as high as possible.
Move evenly and keep panels as vertical as possible.
Avoid any pendulum movements.

9. Make sure each folding panel is placed in its proper

position in the opening and engage the locking point
before moving the next panel. Do not place your
fingers between the panels/ pivot points. Do not force
any locking point.

10. For units with multiple panels folding to one side

or both sides (left/right with up to 4 panels), make
sure that each chain of panels is placed in its proper
position in the opening and engage all locking points
before moving the next chain of panels.
