Introduction and Warnings D 3250

Incorrect Correct
This article describes how your equipment will be delivered to you, specifications on the transportation
used and advice including health & safety on movement of the equipment.
The manufacturer will use a qualified transport company to deliver the product conforming to the
necessary regulations as detailed below:
?All drivers are qualified
?All drivers are tested once yearly ( If applicable )
?All drivers carry risk assessments and method statements (available on request)
?They are controlled under law to conform as there are no trade regulation standards to comply with
Health and safety Considerations:
Moving Goods Safely (MGS) is a national project involving both the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) and
Local Authorities (LA) working in partnership. The project aims to reduce injuries and ill-health arising from the
movement of goods from supplier through haulier to the recipient and end user including any home deliveries.
The project will focus upon the delivery and collection of goods and the hazards this generates. It covers the
main areas that cause the majority of injuries and ill-health to workers, including:
?Workplace transport;
?Slips & trips, and;
?Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD).
The movement of goods presents us, as health and safety regulators, with the challenge of dealing with a huge
variety of issues. The commercial organisations involved within the movement of goods are diverse including
haulier, third party logistics providers, pallet networks, retailers etc, with some very large companies,
thousands of small businesses and the self-employed. The movement of goods is more than just trucks on the
road with a large proportion of accidents happening at the delivery/collection sites that are often not directly
under the control of the company making the delivery or collection. Communication and cooperation problems
can arise due to the many organizations involved in the movement of the goods, and this can also lead to
difficulties in effectively managing health and safety.

The barrier should ALWAYS! be moved with care and attention. The products are very heavy individually
as well as a whole. You should not attempt to move this or any other products by unapproved handling
methods.

Once the barrier has been lifted onto the plinth,
Align the pole arm adaptor with the centre of

Remove Both Barrier covers using the keys provided
And place the Covers somewhere safe to prevent them
getting damaged. Then using An SDS Drill and M16
drill bit Drill one of the rear fixing holes And knock in one
of the M16 Bolts supplied. You can remove the control
Cabinet to gain access to the fixing holes below it, to
Do this remove the M8 nuts fixed at the rear of the
Panel.
Now make sure all cables are through the duct and
Routed where they need to go (e.g mains cable to
The Isolater.) Then after checking the barrier is
Still in line and level proceed to drill and bolt in the
Rest of the fixing bolts. Once all bolts are in make
Sure they are tightened down.

Unwrap the pole very carefully and slide the pole
onto the pole arm adaptor. Using a 6.5mm HSS
Drill bit now drill through both the Pole and the
adaptor at the same time and fit the M6 x 90 Cap
head bolts supplied.
Note - if the pole has boom lights/maglock make
sure you connect these before fitting pole.
5Now the barrier is fully bolted down with the pole on,
Manually wind the barrier in the fully raised and
Lowered positions to ensure everything is correctly
In line.

Now connect all Induction loops, Mains power and
Any other accessories you have using the
Connection diagram on page 8. Once you have
Everything connected you can then power up and
test. You must check that all safety accessories
Work correctly first and then move on to testing any
Access control fitted. Below shows a basic keypad
Entry, auto exit and loop lower/safety system.
Depending on pole length you may now be required
To adjust the limit switches if the pole is not finishing In the
desired position. You will see the two Limit strikers on the
main shaft that operate the limit Switches. These are what
you may need to adjust, For example if the pole is stopping
short of its tip Support in the lower position then you will
need to Back the lower striker off so it hits the switch later
Allowing the pole to travel further. Depending on what
handing the barrier
Is depends on which limit switch does the raise or lower.
You will clearly see which one you need to adjust by
looking
At the position of the barrier to the pole.
Make sure to check all your connections and the barrier is earthed correctly. Also ensure the barrier
covers are on correctly and the safety switch is operated. Now fill out the commissioning certificate
on the Next page.

Electrical Troubleshooting Guide
Please use the following instructions to operate the barrier manually, the following
is assuming you have powered down the unit.
As stated at the beginning of this manual we recommend a bi-annual service, but at a bare minimum, it is imperative
that you get a service done once every 12 months. This is not a sales tactic in disguise, there is a very serious
health and safety issue/risk associated with not complying to this. Also in order for your barrier to keep complying
with the appropriate legislation.
Before carrying out any maintenance to the installation, disconnect the mains power supply.
Make sure you have disconnected/Isolated the power before attempting any work.
A Maintenance Contract should be sought from a specialist company after a maximum of 5000 manoeuvres or 1year from
the install date.
Occasionally clean the photocell optical components and make sure they are free from dirt, water, rain, soil etc.. ? Batteries
in photo cells may need to be changed every 6 months or sooner dependant on use. Barrier will not work properly without
photo cell function.
Have a qualified technician (installer) check the correct setting of the electric clutch.
If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its technical assistance service, or else by
a suitably qualified person, in order to prevent any risk.
When any operational malfunction is found, and not resolved, disconnect the mains power supply and request the
assistance of a qualified technician (installer). When automation is out of order, activate the manual release to allow the
opening and closing operations to be carried out manually.
Gearbox drive unit is “sealed” for life and requires no further lubrication.
!
To Manually release the barrier please remove the cover using key supplied, then take the
release Handle ( which will be handed over with the keys ) and insert into the motor and rotate.
Direction depends on Barrier handing. Once the barrier is wound to the desired position replace
the release key and replace the cover and re-lock.
Note the cover has a safety switch on it that will not allow the barrier to operate if the cover is
Not fully closed.
