Commissioning / functional check
Extend and retract the unit in and out completely. When extending the unit
for the first time, make sure no one is in the operating radius or standing
below the unit.
Make sure that during the later operation the units can be extended freely
and without blockings. Do not extend the unit, if objects or persons are in the
operating radius of the awning. Please observe the safety instructions.
After the first extending check the fixing material and the construction ele-
ments for strength.
Automatic control devices or switches, that are not in the operator's field of
vision may not be used for test runs with motor drives.
We recommend the use of a test cable for the provisional operation of the
motor.
Check all settings.
Check all screwed connections for tightness.
Once again check the strength of the blind brackets on the
mounting base.
Attention!
An insufficient fastening of the mounting brackets can cause the collapsing
of the unit; there is risk of injury or danger to life!
Clean the elements (see maintenance instructions).
Pass these instructions as well as possible instructions of the motor, switch
and control manufacturer on to the user.
Brief the user, whereupon you provide comprehensive information on the
safety and user instructions of the system.
Have the correct design of the system as well as the installation and briefing
with the safety information confirmed in writing (see handover report).

system nova front-mounted box - side by side
the motor drive Geiger E06 is used as stand-
ard. This motor has the advantage that it
references on torque in the upper end posi-
tion and thus the package height remains the
same in the long run.
Change of the package / complete height:
Follow the enclosed operating instructions of
the motor manufacturer.

switching on.
The removal is carried out in reverse order to the installation.
