IMPORTANT
1_ An efficient grounding in compliance with the present stand-
ards for the safety of the equipment is extremely important. The
manufacturer cannot be held responsible for possible damages
due to the non-compliance of the said standard.
2_ For safety reasons a thermal-magnetic circuit breaker should
ideally be positioned prior to the barrier to control the power
supply in the event it must be turned off.
ELECTRIC LIMIT SWITCHES - ADJUSTMENT (RBLO-E)
The electric limit switches installed on the RBLO-E
are used to
set the beginning of the soft stop during opening and closing.
To adjust the cams which trigger the limit switches (1, picture 9)
move them around the housing ring (2, picture 9) until the desired
position is reached.
To adjust the limit switches, it is also necessary to set the logic pa-
rameters of the controller. For example, if the boom stops immedi-
ately after the limit switch has been activated it will be necessary to
increase the motor torque (see “logic adjustments” on the K101M
controller’s manual); on the other hand, if the motor does not shut
off once the closing or opening is complete, it will be necessary
to increase the limit switch detection threshold (see “logic adjust-
ments” on the K101M controller’s manual).
MECHANICAL STOPS ADJUSTMENT
The barrier is normally supplied with the mechanical stops already
adjusted for the ideal movement of the bar.
In the event that the foundation plate is incorrectly positioned, the
bar may not be perfectly horizontal or vertical thereby giving the
barrier an unpleasant appearance.
The course of the bar can be modified to rectify this problem by
moving the vibration-damping plugs of the mechanical stop back or
forward (1 fig. 10), by means of the lock nuts (2 fig. 10) of the plugs.
Note: the memorisation procedure on the control unit must
be repeated each time the position of the mechanical stops is
modified (see K205M instructions).
Once the adjustment has been made, turn the power back on
and perform the memorisation procedure on the control unit
(see K205M instructions), and check the correct position of
the bar from the second automatic manoeuvre (the first ma-
noeuvre is for the control unit to acquire the new stops), if the
position is incorrect repeat the procedure.
FINAL OPERATIONS
Having tested the efficiency of each individual device concerning
the command and control of the barrier, ensure the integrity of the
barrier before handing over to the end user.
Place notices indicating the presence of an automatic barrier in an
easily legible location.
USE
The barrier has been exclusively designed to limit the flow of vehi-
cles 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 having an autonomy of approximately
100 manoeuvres (RBLO).
Furthermore, it also comprises electrical equipment and therefore
must be approached and used with caution and foresight. In par-
ticular 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 ac-
tions;
• 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.

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 spring;
- the balance of the bar (see chapter “SECURING OF BAR AND
BALANCING”);
- the efficiency of the force;
- the integrity of the battery;
- 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 bat-
tery if present).
• Release the bar first in order to facilitate the operation.
Greasing
1_ open the cabinet door;
2_ grease the eyelets of the balancing spring (1 fig. 12);
3_ grease the contact points between the cam of the manual re-
lease and the release lever (2 fig. 12);
4_ keep away from possible moving gears or mechanical parts.

Bar balancing
Check the balance of the bar, repeating the manoeuvres described
in chapter “Securing of bar and balancing”. This operation is fun-
damental for the correct functioning and duration of the barrier. If
necessary, increase the preloading of the spring in order to com-
pensate for its wear. See the subsequent paragraph “Extraordi-
nary maintenance and repairs” in the event the spring needs to be
changed.
