MHS400 Assembly instructions
1. Information
1.1 Technical information
Please read these assembly instructions carefully and in full before assembling and commissioning
the MHS400 system.
Please refer to the enclosed operating instructions for information on the commissioning and opera-
tion of the MHS400 lift & slide system.
Ventilation and convenience
The MHS400 lift & slide system from SIEGENIA .provides maximum operating convenience for straightforward opening and
closing of lift & slide sashes of scheme A and scheme C lift & slide elements. In conjunction with compatible SIEGENIA HS
portal hardware (e.g. HS-PORTAL 200, HS-PORTAL 300 and HS-PORTAL 400), it opens, closes and locks lift & slide sashes
at the touch of a button. Furthermore, the MHS400 lift & slide system can even be assembled on lift & slide elements by third-
party manufacturers and retrofitted to previously installed lift & slide elements. The MHS400 lift & slide system for secure,
convenient opening and closing of lift & slide elements also impresses with its sturdy build, high torque, quiet, short operating
times and slim, unobtrusive design. The system can be operated directly on the lift drive, via a wall switch or with the infrared
remote control included in the scope of delivery.
A profile cylinder is not required.
Application
The lift drive HA replaces the handle on the lift & slide sash. Driven by an electric motor, it unlocks and lifts the lift & slide sash
via the lift & slide hardware gear. The slide drive SA is installed horizontally at the top of the frame of the lift & slide element.
The slide drive then moves the lift & slide sash to the "OPEN" or "CLOSED" position.
For assembly on lift & slide elements with existing profile cylinders, follow the instructions. in Chapter 2, page 29 and 30.

MHS400 Assembly instructions
1.6 Use
Individual drive
An individual drive for lift & slide elements in DIN left or DIN right is supplied (in accordance with the information supplied
on the special order form for the MHS400 lift & slide system for either scheme A or scheme C at the time of placing the order).
230 V alternating current connection
The MHS400 lift & slide system is connected to the 230 V AC mains power supply with a connecting cable (scheme A = 5
m, scheme C = 3.5 - 5 m long) with Euro plug. All-pole safety isolation is required if the customer is fitting the mains cable.
Information for initial commissioning
When you operate the unit for the first time, you must carry out a reference run as well as a calibration and teach-in run in
order to determine the lift & slide element size and the displacement forces (see operating instructions).
Activating the MHS400 system
The drive is designed for elements with opening scheme A or C lift & slide function. The MHS400 lift & slide system can be
operated almost entirely with the button on the lift drive HA. The infrared remote control supplied enables convenient oper-
ation of the lift & slide sash. A wall switch or key button can also be used for operation. The infrared remote control can be
programmed individually (taught in) and used in parallel with other means of control at all times. The drive of the MHS400
lift & slide system can be stopped at any time with the "Stop" button on the infrared remote control.
Group control of multiple MHS400 systems
The infrared remote control can control up to 5 drive groups separately. With scheme C, each lift & slide sash can also be
controlled individually. To achieve this, several MHS400 lift & slide systems are taught in to the required group in set-up mode
(see operating instructions). Up to 8 remote controls can be taught in for each drive.
Lift & slide sash positions
(see also operating instructions)
Limited opening width
The lift & slide sash can be moved to an intermediate setting freely selected and programmed by the user by pressing the
corresponding button on the infrared remote control or the button on the lift drive HA.
10-minute automatic night ventilation
The lift & slide sash can be moved to the secure night ventilation position (HS-PORTAL only) and automatically closed and
locked after 10 minutes by pressing the corresponding button on the remote control or the button on the lift drive HA. Excep-
tion for equipment with a light curtain: if an object moves into the path of the lift & slide sash, the lift & slide sash is stopped.
Safety slow speed mode and jam protection
The slide drive SA features an electronic cut-off function for when an obstacle is hit. For increased safety in the area around
the crush edges, the lift & slide sash traverses the last 500 mm at reduced speed. If the lift & slide sash hits an obstacle, the
direction of travel is reversed and the lift & slide sash moves in the opposite direction for approx. 4 seconds.
Function Corresponding lift & slide sash position
"OPEN" Unlocked and fully open
Intermediate position User-defined, limited opening width
10-minute night ventilation 10-minute night ventilation position (locked in locking bolt/locking part)
"CLOSED" Closed and locked (reference setting)

Last update: 17.12.2014 11
Assembly instructions MHS400
Light curtain for additional safety requirements
It is possible to integrate a light curtain with the slide drive SA (MHS400-L) to increase safety during travel. If an object moves
into the path of the lift & slide sash, the lift & slide sash is stopped immediately.
Information about manual operation
In the event of a malfunction (e.g. power failure), the lift & slide sash can be unlocked and opened manually with an emer-
gency operating handle at the lift drive HA. The lower cover cap on the lift drive HA must be removed for this purpose. The
motor gear is unlocked by pressing the release knob on the lift drive HA. The lift & slide sash can then be lifted manually with
the emergency operating handle (hexagon socket screw key WAF 8) and then moved by hand.
1.7 Safety information and hazard warnings
You must follow the safety instructions!
Risk of injury or fatal injury. Hands, arms, legs and feet can get trapped and/or
crushed in systems driven by an electric motor.
›Make sure that no parts of the body or objects are within the shearing and closing area of the system.
›Particularly when lowering lift & slide elements, make sure that no parts of the body or objects are under the lift & slide
sash.
›Do not leave children unattended near a lift & slide element.
Risk of injury or death due to electrical shock or fire. Systems driven by an elec-
tric motor can overheat and cause fire.
›Insert the Euro plug of the standard connecting cable only into a suitable 230 V AC socket.
›Only a qualified electrician may perform any work on the 230 V AC mains power supply that is required in order to
connect the unit.
›Current local regulations (such as VDE 0100 of the VDE in Germany) must be observed.
›Relevant country-specific regulations must be strictly followed for all work on the voltage supply system or building wiring
system.
›All-pole safety isolation is required when the mains cable is fitted on-site because the power supply does not have a sep-
arate line disconnector.
›The concealed mains supply lines to the MHS400 lift & slide system must be connected in branch boxes; these branch
boxes must be easily accessible for maintenance.
›When cleaning the lift & slide sash and the drives, make sure that no liquid gets inside the MHS400 lift & slide system as
this could damage the electronics.
›The unit must be checked by a specialist in the event of a fault.
Injuries caused by falling objects
›Please do not put or place objects on top of the MHS400.

MHS400 Assembly instructions
1.8 On-site risk and hazard analysis in the planning phase
In order to assess the potential hazards of a power-operated window and to take the appropriate protective measures, you
must assess risks in the planning phase. A risk analysis provides you with all the information needed to assess risks and make
decisions concerning the safety of the window elements. With the MHS400 lift & slide system, there are areas on the lift &
slide element where crushing and shearing may occur. You must carry out a risk and hazard analysis during the planning
phase in accordance with VFF data sheet KB.01 and the current Machinery Directive relating to the safety equipment and
installation situation as appropriate for the individual property and conditions of use (e.g. in case of persons requiring special
protection or commercial properties).
This analysis, which
• takes into account the protective measures necessary in the planning phase
• must be carried out before start-up
• provides information based on the individual installation situation and users on how to install the window system in such a way
as to exclude or at least minimise possible hazards
• draws attention to possible residual risks
The following points are to be checked:
• Public or non-public area (private or industrial property)
• Installation location
• Users (authorised users, persons in need of protection or trained personnel)
• Special structural conditions
• Type of access control
• Requirements for added safety can be met with a light curtain (MHS400-L).

rendered null and void. Once the MHS400 lift & slide system has been assembled, the operating instructions supplied with
it MUST be handed over to the user and the user/owner of the building must be briefed accordingly.
• Use flexible supply lines (run conduit tubes if necessary).
• When fitting cables, avoid damaging the cables by crushing, bending or stretching them.
• The concealed mains supply lines running to the MHS400 lift & slide system must be connected in branch boxes (these branch
boxes must be easily accessible for maintenance).
• Protect the MHS400 lift & slide system against contamination by site material and humidity.
• The hardware components must be securely fixed in place.
• Connect to the mains supply only after you have tested for proper mechanical function.
• Observe the applicable processing guidelines from the profile manufacturer.
To avoid personal injury, it is important to observe the safety precautions provided in these instructions and make sure that
these instructions are accessible at all times.
Cooperation between trades and interfaces
In the context of project management, the work of the various trades must be carefully coordinated. If SIEGENIA components
are being connected to third-party installations or SIEGENIA are being combined with parts by other manufacturers (e.g.
drives and controls), technical compatibility must be verified in advance by authorised personnel. For data collation purpos-
es, the technical data sheets and the latest versions of the operating instructions must be handed over to the trades involved
when work commences.

MHS400 Assembly instructions
Before you can carry out work on the lift & slide sash (drilling and fitting cables), it must first be removed from the lift & slide
frame. Before drilling the required holes on the lift & slide sash, you must remove the handle, the recessed pull handle and
the hardware gear. To ensure trouble-free operation of the MHS400 system, the following requirements must be met:
Requirements to be met by the lift & slide element
• The lift & slide element must not be warped.
• The lift & slide element must be installed vertically plumb in the reveal.
• The threshold must be properly and sufficiently supported — especially for wide or heavy lift & slide elements (e.g. 400 kg).
• To avoid the risk of the connection cable getting crushed in the sash groove, the locking bolt or the locking part for
night ventilation must always be installed at the bottom on the locking side (see the latest assembly instructions for
more information).
• The lift & slide sash must lock into the locking bolts or locking parts evenly.
• The fitting of the cable in the lift & slide sash must be checked prior to assembly. The lift & slide sash must be prepared for op-
timum cable fitting in the fitting groove.
• In cases of retrofitting involving existing lift & slide elements, a visual inspection must be carried out before starting work.
• For scheme A, the concealed mains cable guide must always be located on the horizontal top section of the lift & slide frame
near the locking side.
• For scheme C, the concealed mains cable guide can be located on the outside of the lift & slide frame on either
the left-hand side or the right-hand side.
Requirements to be met by the hardware
• In order for the MHS400 system to function properly, a compatible lift & slide fitting for opening scheme A or C with 10 mm
square striker packer must be installed in the gear (e.g. HS-PORTAL 200, HS-PORTAL 300 or HS-PORTAL 400).
• You can find detailed specifications for size ranges and sash weights in the relevant assembly instructions (e.g. assembly in-
structions for HS-PORTAL 200, HS-PORTAL 300 or HS-PORTAL 400).
• The MHS400 system can only be assembled if the lift & slide hardware gear or the sash hardware has been installed in ad-
vance.
• The hardware must be able to run smoothly (be in unrestricted working order). The maximum torque on the handle must not
exceed 25 Nm.
Requirements to be met by the drive
Risk of mechanical defects if the MHS400 system is put into operation with lift &
slide elements that are not able to move freely.
›Do not put the MHS400 system into operation if the smooth running of the lift & slide element cannot be ensured.
• The MHS400 has not been tested as a locking unit in accordance with ENV 1627-1630.
• The drive must be protected from dust and dirt during the entire assembly and installation phase.

2.2 Information about mains cable fitting
Important information for safety and assembly
The fitting of the mains cable is determined by the prevailing conditions on site. There are two assembly options:
Option A — Surface-mounted fitting of mains cable
The MHS400 system is delivered as standard with a 5 m long mains cable for scheme A and a 3.5 - 5 m long mains cable
for scheme C (depending on the width of the element). The cable outlet for scheme A is always at the top of the slide drive
SA on the locking side (Fig. 1); for scheme C, it can be located on the outside of the slide drive SA on either the left-hand
side or the right-hand side. A notch for the cable outlet must be made on the cover cap SA of the cover profile SA (see Fig.
2). A suitable mains socket must be located near the cable outlet. It is recommended to feed the mains cable through an
appropriate installation duct.

MHS400 Assembly instructions
Option B — Concealed fitting of mains cable
If the customer is responsible for the concealed fitting of the mains cable for the slide drive SA and the connection of the slide
drive SA (in the power supply for scheme A, in the 5-pin socket for scheme C), this work must be carried out by a qualified
electrician. In the case of mains cable fitting for lift & slide elements which have not yet been installed (e.g. new build and
renovation projects), a flexible cable (5 x 1.5 mm2incl. connection) for wall and key switches must be provided by the cus-
tomer and fed concealed through the top section of the lift & slide frame (Fig. 3).
3
Drilled holes for the cable inlet and outlet (each approx. Ø 10 mm) must be made for this purpose, with the centre of each
hole being positioned approx. 7 mm away from the inside frame edge (Fig. 4). All-pole safety isolation is required if the
customer is fitting the mains cable. The isolated end of the mains cable must be located inside the power supply housing
(scheme A) or 5-pin socket (scheme C). The connection to the slide drive is made in accordance with the wiring diagram (see
page 33 and 38). In the mounting angle for the slide drive SA, there is a sufficiently dimensioned recess for the cable outlet
on the lift & slide frame profile for scheme A (Fig. 5). The mounting angle for scheme C does not have a recess for the cable
outlet (Fig. 6). Concealed mains cable fitting to the slide drive SA is through the top edge of the frame on the locking side.
