WARNING! Releasing can be potentially dangerous for the user when for any reason whatsoever (bar badly fitted during installa-
tion, bar broken due to an accident, etc.) the springs do not guarantee balancing any longer!
They can cause the bar coupling and/or the bar itself to rotate suddenly.
3.8 Stop adjustment
The barrier is normally supplied with the stops already adjusted for perfect travel.
If the plate has not been cemented properly, the bar might not be perfectly horizontal or vertical and the installation might not be successful
from an aesthetic point of view.
To correct the vertical position (=opening), close the bar, open the door and rotate the free stopper (1 pic. 8) in a clockwise (to increase the bar
travel) or anticlockwise direction (to reduce the bar travel).
Similarly, to correct the horizontal position (=closing), open the bar and adjust the free stopper (2 pic. 8).
After checking and adjusting the bar opening and closing operation, tighten the locknuts under the stoppers.
Whenever the position of the mechanical stops is modified, the saving procedure on the control card must be performed (see
K206MA instructions).
When adjustment has been completed, carry out the saving procedure onto the control card (see K206MA instructions), checking the
correct position of the bar from the second automatic operation (the first is used by the control unit to accept the new stops); repeat
the procedure as required.
When all the mechanical and electronic installation is complete, fix the cabinet cover, reposition the door and lock.
3.9 Electrical connections
All devices, supply included, must be installed up to standard and in compliance with the regulations in force. Separate the power cables from
the control cables, above all if the paths are long (over 50m). As to the cable section (aerial excluded), TAU recommends: supply 1.5mm², other
cables 0.5mm², follow anyway IEC 364 and the installation regulations in force in your country. To access the control card, remove the cabinet
cover (1 pic. 9) after removing the locking screws and washers. It is then possible to reach the connections.
Note: internal connections are already made and tested. The supply, external photocell, LEDs and any remote controls must be con-
nected and the card must be programmed.
3.10 Last operations
When the correct operation of all devices controlling the bar has been checked, make sure everything is reset before handing over to the users.
Place signs warning people about the barrier where they can be easily read.

USE
The barrier has been exclusively designed to limit the flow of vehicles and/or persons in restricted entrances by means of a bar. In the event of
blackout, functioning can be guaranteed by means of an optional 12V dry battery.
Furthermore, it also comprises electrical equipment and therefore must be approached and used with caution and foresight. In particular we
recommend:
• not to touch the equipment with wet hands and/or bare or wet feet;
• not to perform the automatic or semiautomatic function in the presence of known or suspected malfunctions;
• not to pull the cable to disconnect the equipment;
• not to let children, or those unable, use the cabinet keys or controls (including remote controls) even if only to play with;
• not to operate the barrier until it is completely in view;
• not to enter within the operating range while it is moving, wait for it to stop;
• not to rest against the bar or cabinet for any reason, even when the barrier is inactive and do not remain within the operating range of the
barrier;
• not to let children or animal play within the operating range of the barrier;
• not to use the barrier for purposes (e.g. lifting of weights or persons) other than those foreseen. The manufacture holds no responsibility
what so ever for damages caused by the said actions;
• to perform periodic maintenance by specialised personnel;
• if there is a fault, turn off the power supply. Use the manual manoeuvre only if safe. Do not attempt to resolve the problem yourself, contact
a qualified technician of the manufacturer or authorised by the manufacturer. In any case, make sure that the spare parts are original so that
the safety of the barrier is not compromised.
5. MAINTENANCE
To be performed by specialised personnel only after having turned off the power supply.
After every 100,000 manoeuvres, check:
- the greasing of the springs;
-
the balance of the bar (see chapter “Bar fixing, spring fitting and bar balancing”);
- the efficiency of the force;
- the integrity of the battery, if present;
- The efficiency of the protection and safety devices;
- the wear on the mechanical stops and the adjustment of the limit switches (see chapter “Limit switch adjustment”).
The above mentioned maintenance is vital in order that the product functions correctly throughout time.
In general
It must be impossible for third parties to operate the barrier during maintenance; therefore turn off the mains power supply (and battery if
present).
• Release the bar first in order to facilitate the operation.
Greasing
1_ open the cabinet door;
2_ lubricate with grease both the screw eye of the balancing spring (1 pic. 10) and the ball joint on the balancing lever (3 pic. 10);
3_ grease the contact points between the cam of the manual release and the release lever (2 pic. 10);
4_ keep away from possible moving gears or mechanical parts.
FREQUENCY: every 100,000 manoeuvres or 6 months,
failing which the guarantee lapses
.
N.B it is highly recommended to use high resistance grease based on calcium soap.
