For the automatic chicken door's electronics unit; find an
installation site with a level and stable base. Be aware that
when the slider is opened, a higher load is exerted on the
device than its weight alone. The installation site must be
protected from the ingress of rain.
If necessary, use optional pulleys to guide the cord toward
the door opening. The illustration shows a number of setup
options. The electronics unit is always installed in an upright
position with the cord outlet on the underside.
The slider or the first pulley must be installed so that the cord
is straight when it exits the device. The device or
the last pulley must be installed so that the slider is pulled
straight upwards.
3 .3 Attaching the sliding door and electronics unit
1) Attach the door, e.g. to one of the sliders available in our range (Art. 70560, Art. 70570).
Then ensure that the following requirements are met:
• The door weighs a maximum of 5.5 lbs.
• The door moves in a vertical direction and is placed in the closed position by gravity.
• The door moves easily. No great amount of force is required to open the door. When the door is released, it closes independently and reliably. If
necessary, use a few drops of oil to lubricate the sliding surfaces.
• The pull cord must be routed unhindered from the door to the device without contacting foreign bodies.
• The guide rails of the door are precision-installed so that the door closes the opening of the coop reliably.
• The distance from door to building wall should not exceed 0.2 in. throughout the door‘s entire movement path. When the door is closed, the top
opening should have a minimal gap between door and building. Otherwise an animal may be caught and injured if it gets a part of it caught between
the door and building during opening.
• The device, all pulleys and the door are on the same flat plane. The cord will then not chafe against the pulleys‘ sides.
• Install pulleys so they can all be turned without a high degree of resistance.
2) Securely fasten the electronics unit.
3 .4 Connecting the pull cord
Proceed as follows (see also the following sketch):
1. Press the “Up“ button to move the cord to the upper terminal position.
The cord will roll into the electronics unit until the knotted end stops at the housing.
2. Move the door to fully open. Leave a little distance (min. 2 in.) between the door and motor housing so that motor has time to switch off before any excess
load develops.
3. Connect the cord to the door so that the door is in the open position when the cord is taut.
4. Knot the cord.
5. Finally, using a pair of scissors, cut off the excess length of the cord.
