Chain Actuated Pitchvent Setup 

 
Once the product has been installed, working from inside the building, remove the two yellow transportations plates (one on either 
side). Insert the small blanking caps (supplied) into the fixing holes for the transportation plates.

Terminate the cables and apply power to the product following the wiring diagrams. Check that the power output from the PSU is 
between 24V and 26V when it reaches the product and adjust if necessary. Also install and connect any optional extras as directed (refer 

to Glazing Vision’s sales drawings and wiring diagrams).

 

 
Before initializing the Chain Actuated Pitchvent, first check that there are no obstructions preventing the lid from moving freely e.g. 

scaffolding  or  loads  placed  on  the  lid.  Check  also  that  the  product’s  mechanisms  are  properly  engaged  (i.e.  the  manual  overri

de 

procedure has not been carried out 

 refer to the operation and maintenance manual), failure to check this could result in mechanical 

damage. Switch on the power. If the product cannot be seen when standing next to the wall mounted control switch, ask for assistance 
before continuing. When you are ready to run the Chain Actuated Pitchvent for the first time, press the close button on the wall mounted 
control switch. This ensures that everything is zeroed prior to opening. The product can now be opened for the first time by pressing and 
holding the open button on the wall mounted control switch. When operating the product for the first time it is important to check that 
both  chain  actuators  (if  multiple  are  present)  are  working  in  tandem  and  the  lid  moves  evenly.  If  something  does  not  function  as 
expected, immediately let go of the switch and contact Glazing Vision for assistance.
