Safety Features
Thank you for purchasing one of our perimeter security products.
Your barrier will provide safe and reliable service and peace of mind provided that the following
instructions and guidance is followed.
Your barrier is fitted with a range of safety devices designed to prevent accidents or injury, none the
less the area in the immediate vicinity of the barrier should be treated as potentially hazardous and
avoided whenever the barrier is moving (shown below).
Explanation of safety features and barrier reaction:
Dual Height Photocells –(either side of moving barrier leaf) stops barrier closing and
reverses to the fully open position. (IF FITTED)
CAT 3 Safety Edges –Safety edges are direction dependant and will stop barrier and reverse
in the opposite direction to which the barrier was moving. (FITTED ON PLAIN POLE ARMS)
Emergency Stop Button –located on the front of the barrier cabinet this can be used before
an incident happens (IF FITTED)
Please Note:
Inductive safety edges are fitted as standard to meet the force limitation as required and
specified in BS EN12978:2000, unfortunately this cannot be achieved when under lattice or
security hi-bar lattice is installed / retro-fitted to the barrier beam. It is the responsibility of
the installer to carry out the necessary risk assessment and install the appropriate safety
devices to make the barrier meet the current standards such as light curtains, laser safety
sensors or photo electric cells.
Safe use warnings:
1. Do not allow children/people with physical or mental impairment to play on or near the
barrier. Barriers are designed for vehicular use only
2. Keep remote control devices away from children.
3. Do not try to pass through/over/under the moving barrier.
4. Do not stop unnecessarily when passing through the barrier.
5. Only operate the barrier controls when in view of the barrier.
6. Do not attempt to interfere or modify the barrier from the factory setup.
7. Make sure the barrier is maintained by a trained and qualified powered barrier specialist at
the prescribed 6 monthly intervals and that services are recorded in this manual’slog.
8. If any sign of malfunction occurs switch off the barrier, manually release it and contact a
trained and qualified powered barrier specialist immediately.

Safe Use Instructions
To open the barrier:
The barrier may be opened using the Open push button input, panel mounted keypad button, exit
loop or radio fob (if fitted). The barrier will smoothly accelerate to fast speed until the intermediate
limit is reached, at which point the barrier will smoothly decelerate for the remainder of the travel
distance. The barrier may be closed using the Auto-Close function, the Close button input, panel
mounted keypad button or radio fob. The barrier will smoothly accelerate to full speed until the
intermediate limit is reached, at which point the barrier will decelerate for the remainder of the
travel distance.
If a safety device is activated (i.e. safety edge or photocell) during the closing cycle the barrier will
stop & return to the fully open position. The barrier may only be closed once the obstruction has
been removed.
To close the barrier:
If a safety device is activated (i.e. safety edge or photocell) during the closing cycle the barrier will
stop & return to the fully open position. The barrier may only be closed once the obstruction has
been removed.
The barrier can also be closed by external devices but also using the down arrow on the front of the
control panel.

Manual operation: WARNING SWITCH POWER OFF FIRST!
In the event of a power cut or other fault it will be necessary to move your barrier in manual mode.
Manual operation should only be attempted by a responsible adult. Before doing this always switch
the system off at the main isolator, your installer will have shown you where this is on yoursystem.
One the HD barrier due to the different mounting you have a cover plate that has thumb
screw Allen key bolts that need removing and then this allows access to the manual release.
This is located on the side panel of the barrier. Please note! On removal of the correct screw
this will activate a safety switch which will stop the barrier moving automatically. THE
POWER MUST ALSO BE TURNED OFF at the isolator as a failsafe BEFORE! this isattempted.
Fig 1 HD Model Fig 2
You can now move the barrier manually. Only move the barrier very slowly, no faster than it moves
in normal use. Your installer will have demonstrated this at handover.
To return the barrier to automatic operation (when the power is restored) simply follow the steps
above in reverse order: Fig 3 Shown below where the manual release is underneath the barrier lid.

End User Regular Safety Checks
Keep the areas around the barrier clear of obstructions at all times, cut back plants and weeds that
might interfere with the barrier safety devices and its safety sensors. Keep the photo electric beam
covers clean. Make sure pedestrian routes which are Cleary marked are always accessible.
Safety checks:
These user safety checks should be conducted every [few weeks] by a responsible adult who has
been shown how to do the checks by a trained and qualified powered barrier specialist. We will
demonstrate the user checks to you as part of the handover process.

Engineer Planned Preventative Maintenance Schedule
Your barrier will need to receive regular planned preventative maintenance in order to remain in
safe and reliable service. The maintenance outlined below should only be conducted by a trained
and qualified powered barrier specialist who is familiar with 6000 automation equipment and has
the necessary test equipment. [insert company] can provide this service and you will have been
offered a maintenance contract as part of the supply process. If the maintenance outlined below is
not completed, [insert company] cannot accept responsibility for injuries, accidents or breakdowns
caused by lack of maintenance.
You are reminded that, as the person in control of the barrier, you have a legal duty of care to users
and to visitors to the premises (including trespassers). If the barrier is not kept safe, any party whose
property is damaged or who is injured by the barrier is likely to be able to sue for damages.
If the barrier is part of an undertaking (such as at rented property), the person in control of it will have
additional duties under section 3 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 to keep the barrier
maintained in a safe condition.
If the premises are also a workplace, there are specific duties under regulation 5 and 18 of the
Workplace (Health and Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992.
Failure to meet duties imposed by health and safety legislation can result in criminal proceedings.
A maintenance log is provided at the end of this book to record completed maintenance. Please
make sure the maintenance log is completed and signed on completion of any maintenance work.
At 6 month intervals:
Inspections:
Check that all gearbox and motor mountings are tight and secure
Check that the barrier manual release is still functioning
Check that the barrier is stable and moves freely when the manual release is engaged and power is
switched off!
Check flashing beacon is working (if fitted)
Check that the emergency door switch button works
Check that the manual release emergency switch button works (HD Model)
Check all safety edges work and are working for the correct direction of travel
Check the photocells are working and in the correct direction of travel
Check that no one has made the barrier unsafe by speeding it up past the factory settings
Check that the control program has not been modified such as to make the barrier unsafe. Please
consult the manufacturer if in doubt. Call the manufacturer to talk this through if in doubt, use
common sense and it is better to check everything twice!
