ATTENTION:
IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE FITTING.
OBSERVE ALL INSTRUCTIONS, INCORRECT FITTING
COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURIES.
3.1
Inspect door/door system
DANGER
Compensating springs are under high tension
Serious injuries may occur while adjusting or loosening the
compensating springs!
For your own safety, only have a specialist conduct
▶
work on the door compensating springs. The same
applies to all maintenance and repair work!
Never try to replace, adjust, repair or reposition the
▶
compensating springs for the counterbalance of the
door or the spring mountings yourself.
In addition, check the entire door system (joints, door
▶
bearings, cables, springs and fastenings) for wear and
possible damage.
Check for the presence of rust, corrosion and cracks.
▶
A malfunction in the door system or an incorrectly aligned
door can cause serious injuries!
Do not use the door system if repair or adjustment work
▶
must be conducted!
The construction of the operator is not designed for operation
with sluggish doors, i.e. doors that can hardly or not at all be
opened or closed manually.
The door must be in a flawless mechanical condition, as well
as correctly balanced, so that it can be easily operated by
hand (EN 12604).
Lift the door by approx. one metre and let it go. The door
▶
should stay in this position and neither move downward
nor upward. If the door does move in either direction,
there is a danger that the compensating springs/weights
are not properly adjusted or are defective. In this case,
increased wear and malfunctioning of the door system
can be expected.
Check whether the door can be opened and closed
▶
correctly.
Clearance required
3.2
The clearance between the highest point of door travel and
the ceiling (even when opening the door) must be at least
30 mm.
If the clearance is smaller, the operator can also be mounted
behind the opened door if enough space is available. In this
case, an extended fitting bracket (ordered separately) must be
used.
The garage door operator can be arranged up to max.
500 mm off-centre. Exceptions to this include sectional doors
with high-lift (high-lift track application H). Special fitting is
required for this arrangement.
The electrical outlet should be fitted approx. 500 mm from the
operator head.
Check these dimensions!

3.3
Fitting the garage door operator
WARNING
Unsuitable fixing material
Use of unsuitable fixing material may lead to unsafe fitting
which may cause the operator to come loose.
The fitter must check the suitability of the provided
▶
fixing material (plugs) for use in the intended fitting
location; other fixing material must be used if the
provided material is suitable for concrete (≥ B15), but is
not officially approved (see Figures 1.6a / 1.8b / 2.4).
WARNING
Danger to life from the pull rope
A running rope may lead to strangulation.
Remove the rope while fitting the operator
▶
(see Figure 1.3a).
WARNING
Danger of injury due to unwanted door travel
Incorrect assembly or handling of the operator may trigger
unwanted door travel that may result in persons or objects
being jammed.
Follow all the instructions provided in this manual.
▶
Incorrectly fitted control devices (e.g. buttons) may trigger
unwanted door travel. Persons or objects may be jammed
as a result.
Install control devices at a height of
▶
at least 1.5 m (out of the reach of
children).
Fit permanently installed control
▶
devices (such as buttons, etc.)
within sight of the door, but away
from moving parts.
ATTENTION
Damage caused by dirt
Drilling dust and chippings can lead to malfunctions.
Cover the operator during drilling work.
▶
NOTES:
An emergency release is required for garages without a
second entrance in order to prevent users from locking
themselves during a power failure; this must be ordered
separately.
Check the emergency release for proper function every
▶
month.
In order to fully comply with the TTZ break-in resistance
guideline for garage doors, the cord knob on the slide
carriage must be removed.
