Use only control units with electric clutch.
The distance between the control unit and the motor must not
exceed 10 – 12 m.
TAU srl recommends its composite cable, Code M-03000010CO;
Place the control unit in the immediate vicinity of the
motors.
Be careful not to run cables for auxiliary devices in-
side raceways housing other cables supplying pow-
er to large loads or lights with electronic starters.
In the event control pushbuttons or indicator lights
are installed inside homes or ofces several metres
away from the actual control unit, it is advisable to
decouple the signal by means of a relay in order to
avoid induced interference.
CAUTION-If during the memorization process one or
both of the doors close instead of opening, stop the
automations and reverse the polarity of the motor.
4_ USE
The ZIPPO XL automation has been designed for swing gates
with leaves max. 3 mt. long and weight max of 200 Kg.
It is categorically forbidden to use the equipment for
any other use or under circumstances different from
those mentioned herein.
The electronic unit (that must have the built-in electric clutch)
normally makes it possible for you to choose from:
automatic : a command pulse will open and shut the door
semiautomatic : a command pulse will open or shut the door
If there is a blackout to control it manually rst operate the unlock
mechanism.
Furthermore, it also comprises electrical equipment and therefore
must be approached and used with caution and foresight. In par-
ticular we recommend:
• not to touch the equipment with wet hands and/or bare or wet
feet;
• not to perform the automatic or semiautomatic function in the
presence of known or suspected malfunctions;
• not to pull the cable to disconnect the equipment;
• not to let children, or those unable, use the cabinet keys or
controls (including remote controls) even if only to play with;
• do not touch the motor unless you are certain it is cold;
• only operate the door when it is completely visible;
• not to enter within the operating range while it is moving, wait
for it to stop;
• not to let children or animal play within the operating range of
the door;
• to perform periodic maintenance by specialised personnel;
• if there is a fault, turn off the power supply. Use the manual
manoeuvre only if safe. Do not attempt to resolve the problem
yourself, contact a qualied technician of the manufacturer or
authorised by the manufacturer. In any case, make sure that
the spare parts are original so that the safety of the automa-
tion is not compromised.
4.1_ Manual release
In case you need to manually move the door, due to lack of
electricity or automation fault, you must use the release device
as follows:
1_ Take the protection cap out (picture 11)
2_ Insert the provided tube key B in the hole of the lever of the
gate and turn it in the specied direction (picture 11);
3_ Move the unlocked leaf manually.
In order to restore the standard working of the automation, hook

again the articulated arm to the operator.
Note: To prevent an involuntary pulse from activating
the gate during the maneuver, before re-locking, turn
off the power.
5_ MAINTENANCE
The ZIPPO's actuators need very little maintenance. However,
to ensure they always work properly, the door has to be in good
condition: hence we shall describe briey what you need to do to
keep your articuilated door efcient.
ATTENTION: no one, except the person who services the
equipment (who must be a specialised technician), should be
able to command the automatism during servicing. Consequently,
it is advisable to turn the electricity off at the mains also to
avoid possible electric shocks. If the electricity has to be on
for certain checks, check or disable all command devices
(remote controls, push button panels, etc.) except for the device
being used by the maintenance person.
Routine maintenance
Each of the following operations must be carried out when the
need arises and, in all cases, every 6 months (always 750 work
cycles).
Articuled door
• Lubricate the hinges and telescopic arms.
Automation system
• check the safety devices (photocells, etc.). They must work
properly in dangerous situations and cut in as congured
during installation;
• check that the slide way is clean and free from debris;
• push the door fully open making sure never to use a force of
more than 150 N (15 kg);
• make sure the door moves smoothly;
• check that the screw connections are perfectly tight.
FREQUENCY: every 750 manoeuvres or 6 months, failing which
the guarantee lapses.
Extraordinary maintenance or breaks
• In case of unusual repairs on mechanic parts, we kindly ask
to remove only the damage part in order to allow headquarter
technicians or authorized ones to repair or x easily the faulty
part.
6_ SCRAPPING
All materials must be disposed of in observance of current stand-
ards.
If the automation is to be scrapped there are no particular dan-
gers or risks associated with the automation itself.
In the case of material recovery, separate components accord-
ing to the waste category (electrical parts - copper - aluminium
- plastic, etc.).
7_ DISASSEMBLY
If the automation is disassembled for subsequent re-assembly in
another site:
- Disconnect the power supply and the entire electrical system;
- Remove the gearmotor from the xing base;
- Disassemble all system components;
- If some components cannot be removed or are damaged, re-
place.
