Before Installation
1
Read the instructions carefully.
2
Make sure the door structure is solid and suitable to
be motor driven.
3
Make sure that when the door is moving there are no
friction points.
4
The door must be properly balanced and must be
easily lowered and raised by hand.
5 A 240V, adequately protected 3-pin power outlet must
be near where the Smart Lifter ECO opener is going
to be installed.
Remember
there are specific standards that have to
be strictly followed regarding the safety of electrical
installations for automatic gates and doors.
As well as the legal requirements and standards that
must be adhered to, please take note of the following
points to ensure maximum safety and reliability of your
installation.
6
Prior to installing check the surrounding environment.
Carefully evaluate any hazards there could be from
physical damage (transiting vehicles, parts of trees
falling etc.), possible contact with foreign bodies
(insects, leaves, etc.), flooding hazards or any others
exceptional events.
7
Check that the main voltage is the same as that given
on the rating plate and in this manual.
8
Check there is suitable electrical protection against
short circuits/power spikes and proper earthing on the
mains supply.
Remember
the unit has mains voltage running through it
(electrocution hazard, fire hazard).
9
Take care with the opener; parts may be subject to
damage if abused.
10
Make sure you have all the necessary installation
materials and that they are suitable for this kind of use.
11
Read all the instructions thoroughly and make sure
they are understood before attempting to install the
Smart Lifter ECO.
12
Before starting the installation, carefully analyse all the
risks relating to automating the door. Verify that the
door to be automated is in a sound condition and that
the mechanisms are in good working order; observe
the safety margins and minimum clearances.
13
Evaluate with particular care the safety devices to be
installed and where to install them; always install an
emergency stop device for interruption of power to the
opener if required.
14
Once the risks have been analysed, install the
Smart Lifter ECO opener and relative safety devices,
emergency stop and/or photo electric cells.
Important:
For additional safety Smart Openers Pty Ltd
strongly recommends the fitting of photo electric safety
beams on all installations.
15
When installing the Smart Lifter ECO opener, strictly
follow all the instructions given in the instruction
manual. If some points or procedures in this manual
are not very clear do not install the unit until all doubts
have been cleared up with our technical department.

Risk Of Entrapment Label
1
The Risk of Entrapment Label must be attached to the
door in a suitable, prominent location so as to inform all
users of the dangers involved in owning and operating
an automated garage door. We provide this label for
everyone’s safety and it only takes seconds to install.
So as a responsible garage door installer please make
sure this is completed before leaving the job.
THE FITTING OF THIS LABEL IS MANDATORY.
2
Once set up is complete and the safety obstruction
margin test is carried out (see page 10), please
ensure that this warning and all safety warnings
described in the owners manual are explained to the
user to ensure that they are clearly understood and
followed.
Headroom Requirement
The Lifter ECO requires a minimum headroom of just
52mm (42mm for the rail plus an extra 10mm clearance)
between the top of the door’s highest point of travel and
the ceiling.
