mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge. Children should be supervised to ensure that they
do not play with the device.
11. Electrical items do not belong in the household waste but must be disposed of properly. Check with
your local authorities, city, or retailer.
12. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its customer service, or a
similarly qualified person to avoid danger.
ATTENTION: Important safety instructions. For the safety of people, it is important to follow all instructions.
Keep this manual.
Do not let children play with the gate operator. Keep the radio controlled remotes away from children. Make
sure that you, bystanders, and children are completely away from the swinging gate until it is completely
opened or closed.
Be careful when manually unlocking the gate operators.
Periodic testing of the equipment (every 6 months), in particular the testing of cables, springs and brackets
for signs of wear, damage or inequality, is necessary. Do not use the gate operator when repair or adjustment
is necessary, as installation failure or improperly balanced gate may result in personal injury.
Monthly testing of safety load switch-off -- if the motor continues to run when the door edge runs into a 50
mm high object. If necessary, adjust and check, as an incorrect setting can be dangerous.
For information on how to engage the manual release, refer to the manual (pg. 24).
For information about adjusting the safety load switch-off, refer to the control box manual.
Disconnect the power supply plug when cleaning or performing any other maintenance.
