Thank you for choosing our product. FAAC is sure that it will give you
all the performances you are looking for. All our products are the
result of a long experience in the field of the automated systems.
In the middle of the handbook you will find a detachable
brochure with the images for the installation.
These instructions apply to the following model:
390
The external automation with articulated arms automates residen-
tial swing-leaf gates with leaves of up to 3m in length, and is ideal
for applications on large pilasters without the need to provide
niches (sometimes required to observe the installation dimensions
of piston driven devices).
It consists of an irreversible electro-mechanical operator with guard
and an articulated-arm activation system to be fitted to the gate
with the appropriate accessories.
The irreversible system ensures the gate is mechanical locked when
the motor is not operating. No lock need be installed for leaves
up to 2m in length.
A manual release makes it possible to move the gate in the event
of a power-cut or fault.
IMPORTANT NOTES FOR INSTALLER
Before starting the installation of the operator read this manual
completely.
Keep this manual for future reference.
Smooth operation and specifications are obtained only declared
following the directions given in this handbook and with acces-
sories and safety devices FAAC.
The lack of a mechanical clutch device requires to ensure an
adequate level of security automation, the use of a central control
device with an electronically controlled clutch.
The automation was designed and built to control vehicular ac-
cess. Avoid any other use.
The operator can not be used to handle emergency exit routes
or gates installed on emergency (escape routes).
If there is built-in anti motorize from a door to the walkway is requi-
red to add a safety switch on the door, connected on the entry of
STOP, to inhibit the operation of automation with door open.
Everything that is not expressly stated in this manual is not al-
lowed.

To lay electrical cables, use adequate rigid and/or flexible
tubes.
Always separate low voltage accessories from those ope-
rating at 230 V~. To avoid any interference, always use
separate sheaths.
For the motor cable to use a sheath suitable for outdoor use,
a hand that is piped in special ducts always external use.
3. INSTALLATION OF AUTOMATION
3.1. PRELIMINARY CHECKS
To ensure safety and an efficient automation, make sure the
following requirements are met:
The gate structure must be suitable for automation. In particular,
make sure it is sufficiently sturdy and rigid, and that its dimensions
are in line with those indicated in the technical specifications.
Make sure that the leaves move properly and uniformly, without
any irregular friction during their entire travel.
Check if hinges are in good condition.
Make sure the travel limit mechanical stops are present. We
advise you to carry out any metalwork jobs before installing the
automation.
3.2. INSTALLATION DIMENSIONS
Establish the installation position of the operator by consulting
