Installation area
Before installation, ensure that the installation location complies with the provisions of the current standards. In particular, the position in which the
motorisation mechanism will be fitted must allow for safe and easy manual release of the gate.
Ensure that there are no danger zones (risk of crushing, cutting, trapping) between the gate and the surrounding fixed elements caused by the opening
movement of the gate.
Do not install the product in an explosive environment.
Maintain a clear area of 500 mm behind the gate when it is completely open.
Installation
Before installing the motor, ensure that the driven part is in good mechanical condition, that it is correctly balanced and that it opens and closes correctly.
On a barred gate, if the bars are more than 40 mm apart, install an appropriate safety device to prevent cutting.
If the gate is barred, we would suggest you protect the access to the arm from the outside of the property.
Place the fixed control devices and remote controls out of the reach of children.
Any switch without a locking device must be installed in direct view of the gate and away from any mobile parts. The minimum height at which it must be
installed is 1.5 m. It must not be accessible to the public.

Watch the gate while it is moving.
Remove any jewellery (bracelets, chains, etc.).
For drilling and welding operations, wear special glasses and sufficient protection.
Use the appropriate tools.
Do not connect to the mains or to a backup battery before installation is complete.
Be careful when handling the motorisation system to prevent any risk of injury.
Manual unlocking may result in uncontrolled movement of the gate leaf.
