Fundamental safety notes
The product should be installed or incorporated in such a way that effortless access to the product is guaranteed
during any repairs and/or maintenance, and that any removal costs do not stand out of economic proportion to
the value of the product.
2.3 Safety-conscious working
à
Secure workplace against unauthorised entry.
à
Watch the swivelling range of long system parts.
à
Never carry out work with a high safety risk (e.g. installing the drive, cover or door leaf) while alone.
à
Secure the cover/drive panels against falling.
à
Secure non-fixed components to prevent them falling.
à
Use only the cables specified on the cable plan provided. Cables must be shielded in compliance with the
wiring diagram.
à
Secure loose, internal drive cables with cable ties.
à
Before working on the electrical system:
à
Disconnect the drive from the 230 V mains and secure it against being switched back on again. Check isolation
from power supply.
à
Disconnect the control unit from the 24 V rechargeable battery.
à
Note that if an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) is used, the system will still be supplied with voltage
despite the fact that the power supply is disconnected.
à
Always use insulated wire-end ferrules for wire cores.
à
Make sure of sufficient lighting.
à
Use safety glass.
à
Attach safety stickers to glass door leaves.
à
Risk of injury with opened drive. Hair, clothing, cables, etc. can be drawn in by rotating parts.
à
Risk of injury by trapping, knocking, shearing and hair etc. being pulled in at unsecured points.
à
Risk of injury due to glass breakage. Always only use safety glass.
à
Risk of injury due to sharp edges on the drive and door leaf.
à
Risk of injury during installation through freely moving parts.
2.4 Environmentally conscious working
à
When disposing of the door system, separate the different materials and have them recycled.
à
Do not dispose of batteries and rechargeable batteries with household waste.
à
Comply with the statutory regulations when disposing of the door system and the batteries/rechargeable
batteries.
2.5 Safety notes related to transportation and storage

X
Do not throw, do not drop.
à
Storage temperatures under –30 °C and above +60 °C can result in damage to the device.
à
Protect against humidity.
à
Use special glass transport devices (e.g. A-frames) for transporting glass.
à
Separate several panes on a frame or during storage using intermediate layers (e.g. cork pads, paper or plastic
cords).
à
Always store glass in a vertical position on level and load-bearing ground. Use suitable material as a support
(e.g. wooden slats).
à
In the case of insulated glass, make sure that it is placed flush across the entire element thickness on at least
2 supports.
à
During storage and support, safety devices must not cause any damage to the glass or edge seal of insulated
glass and must be attached flat on the pane surface.
à
Dry, well ventilated, closed, weather-proof and UV-protected rooms are suitable as storage areas
