This installation manual must be handed to the customer and must be kept in a safe place throughout the whole period of use!
1. PURPOSE / SCOPE
This instruction manual details the components and steps to follow during the installation when carried out by
the manufacturer or when carried out under its responsibility, as well as the installation of the door in cases in
which it is supplied by Novoferm as a complete kit, and when this installation is carried out by an installer chosen
by the user. The risks related to the installation are also set out. Installations in which components not supplied
by NOVOFERM are used do not fall within the scope of this document.
Only the correct installation and maintenance, carried out by a competent organisation or person, in accordance
with the instructions given in this manual, can ensure the safe installation, operation and use (including
maintenance and repair) of an industrial door used for the transport of vehicles and persons.
Please read these operating instructions carefully and comply with all contents and safety instructions.
The instructions in this manual cannot, by themselves, make the work safe and do not preclude the operator from
observing the safety code or local or national law, rules or regulations.
The images and diagrams are generic and therefore this information may vary due to constant research and
development by NFA.
