Performance test
7.1
Performance test, manually operated frame
After installation and prior to use all functions of Flexi must be tested. The test must be carried out
by competent personnel. Subsequently the test shall be carried out at least once a year:
1. Check that the mounting instructions have been observed.
2. Check that all bolts have been tightened.
3. There must be no load on the frame.
4. There must be nothing preventing the frame from moving freely within the height
adjustment range (65-95 cm).
5. Turn the handle, move the frame to bottom position and check that the movement is
smooth and even. Make sure that the hoses follow the movement of the frame and do not
get squeezed.
6. Now turn the handle and move the frame to top position and check that the movement is
smooth and even. Make sure that the hoses follow the movement of the frame and do not
get squeezed.
If all these tests are ok, the Flexi is ready for use.
7.2
Performance test, electrically operated frame
After installation and prior to use all functions of Flexi must be tested. The test must be carried out
by competent personnel. Subsequently the test shall be carried out at least once a year:
Testing prior to connection of mains voltage:
1. Check that the mounting instructions have been observed.
2. Check that all bolts have been tightened.
3. Check that all cables have been connected correctly and that the plugs have been pressed
home.
4. Check that there is no load on the Flexi frame.
5. Check that there is nothing preventing the Flexi from moving freely within the height
adjustment range.
Now connect mains voltage to the control unit and proceed as follows:
6. Press DOWN on the control switch, move the Flexi frame to bottom position and check that
the movement is even and smooth. Make sure that the hose connections follow the
movement of the Flexi frame and that they do not get squeezed.
7. Press DOWN on the control switch and keep the switch depressed for approx. 5 sec. or
until a click is heard from the control unit. The Flexi frame may move a bit further downward
and will now have been reset.
8. Press UP on the control switch, move the Flexi frame to top position and check that the
movement is even and smooth. Make sure that the hose connections follow the movement
of the Flexi frame and that they do not get squeezed.
If a safety strip has been mounted under the Flexi frame it must be tested as follows:
9. Press DOWN on the control switch and let the Flexi frame move 2-5 cm downward. Now
activate the safety strip by pressing it lightly. The frame must stop the downward
movement, move 1-2 cm upward and stop.
If a safety strip has been fitted above the frame, e.g. on a wall cupboard ”Diagonal”, this
must also be tested as follows:
10. Make sure that the Flexi frame is in the bottom position. Press UP on the button and let the
frame move 2-5 cm upward. Now the safety strip above the Flexi frame will be activated.
The Flexi frame must now stop its UPWARD movement and move 1-2 cm downward and
stop.
If all these tests are ok, the Flexi frame is ready for use. Se section 10 “Safety in use”.
