General safety precautions
This installation manual is intended for qualified personnel only • Installation, electrical connec-
tions and adjustments must be performed by qualified personnel, in accordance with Good Working
Methods and in compliance with the current regulations • Read the instructions carefully before
installing the product. Wrong installation could be dangerous • Before installing the product, make
sure it is in perfect condition.
The packaging materials (plastic, polystyrene, etc.) should not be discarded in the environment
or left within reach of children, as they are a potential source of danger • Do not install the
product in explosive areas and atmospheres: the presence of inflammable gas or fumes represents
a serious safety hazard • Make sure that the temperature range indicated in the technical speci-
fications is compatible with the installation site • Before installing the motorization device, make
sure that the existing structure, as well as all the support and guide elements, are up to standards
in terms of strength and stability. Verify the stability and smooth mobility of the guided part, and
make sure that no risks of fall or derailment subsist. Make all the necessary structural modifica-
tions to create safety clearance and to guard or isolate all the crushing, shearing, trapping and
general hazardous areas • The motorization device manufacturer is not responsible for failure to
observe Good Working Methods when building the frames to be motorized, or for any deformation
during use • The safety devices (photocells, safety edges, emergency stops, etc.) must be installed
taking into account the applicable laws and directives, Good Working Methods, installation prem-
ises, system operating logic and the forces developed by the motorized door or gate • The safety
devices must protect against crushing, cutting, trapping and general danger areas of the motorized
door or gate. Display the signs required by law to identify hazardous areas • Each installation must
bear a visible indication of the data identifying the motorized door or gate • Before connecting the
power supply, make sure the plate data correspond to those of the mains power supply. An om-
nipolar disconnection switch with a contact opening distance of at least 3 mm must be fitted on
the mains supply. Check that there is an adequate residual current circuit breaker and a suitable
overcurrent cutout upstream of the electrical installation in accordance with Good Working Meth-
ods and with the laws in force • When requested, connect the motorized door or gate to an effec-
tive earthing system that complies with the current safety standards • Before commissioning the
installation to the end user, make sure that the automation is adequately adjusted in order to
satisfy all the functional and safety requirements, and that all the command, safety, and manual
release devices operate correctly.
During maintenance and repair operations, cut off the power supply before opening the
cover to access the electrical parts • The protection cover of the operator must be removed
by qualified personnel only.
The electronic parts must be handled using earthed antistatic conductive arms. The manu-
facturer of the motorization declines all responsibility if component parts not compatible with
safe and correct operation are fitted • Only use original spare parts for repairing or replacing
products • The installer must supply all information concerning the automatic, manual and emer-
gency operation of the motorized door or gate, and must provide the user with the operation and
safety instructions
ATTENTION! Important safety instructions.Please follow these instructions carefully.
Failure to observe the information given in this manual may lead to severe personal injury or
damage to the equipment.Keep these instructions for future reference.

IP1725EN
1.2 Machinery Directive
Pursuant to Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC) the installer who motorizes a door or gate has the
same obligations as the manufacturer of machinery and as such must:
- prepare the technical file which must contain the documents indicated in Annex V of the Ma-
chinery Directive;
(The technical file must be kept and placed at the disposal of competent national authorities for
at least ten years from the date of manufacture of the motorized door);
- draw up the EC Declaration of Conformity in accordance with Annex II-A of the Machinery Direc-
tive and deliver it to the customer;
- affix the EC marking on the motorized door in accordance with point 1.7.3 of Annex I of the
Machinery Directive.
1.1 Operating instructions
Use: INTENSIVE (For vehicle or pedestrian accesses to large condominiums, industrial or com-
mercial complexes and parking lots with very frequent use).
- Performance characteristics are to be understood as referring to the recommended weight
(approx. 2/3 of maximum permissible weight) and at an ambient temperature of 25°C. When
used with the maximum permissible weight a reduction in the above mentioned performance
can be expected.
- Service class, running times, and the number of consecutive cycles are to be taken as merely
indicative Having been statistically determined under average operating conditions, and are
therefore not necessarily applicable to specifi c conditions of use.
- Each automatic entrance has variable elements such as: friction, balancing and environmental
factors, all of which may substantially alter the performance characteristics of the automatic
entrance or curtail its working life or parts thereof (including the automatic devices themselves).
The installer should adopt suitable safety conditions for each particular installation.

NOTE: the electrical wiring and the start-up of the gearmotors are shown in the control
panel installation manuals.
Before connecting the power supply, make sure that the data on the plate correspond to the elec-
tricity distribution network data. Provide an omnipolar switch/disconnector on the power network
with a contact opening distance of 3 mm or more. Check that there is a suitable residual-current
device and surge protector upstream of the electrical system. Use an H05RN-F 3G1.5 electrical
cable and connect it to terminals L (brown) and N (blue) inside the automation system. Connect
the earth cable (yellow/green) to the earth terminal.
Secure the cable by means of the cable clamp and only unsheathe it at the terminal.
Connections to the electrical distribution network and any other low-voltage conductors (230 V), in
the section outside the automation system, must be made with corrugated pipes that are independ-
ent and separate from the path of connections to the control and safety devices (SELV = Safety Extra
Low Voltage). Make sure there are no sharp edges that could damage the power cord.
ATTENTION: always observe L-N polarity when connecting to the mains.
Ensure that the mains connection cables, any other low-voltage cables (230 V), and safety
extra-low voltage safety accessory connection cables in the portion located inside the prod-
uct are kept well separated from the gear motor body.
