3- TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION ACK4S
INSTALLATION AND USE ISTRUCTIONS
Fig. 2
Fig. 3
The ACK4S Chain actuator is equipped with the latest TOPP system for the coordinated
synchronization of the chain movement. The electronic speed control is fully automatic and
requires no external control unit; just connect the yellow/white/blue cables as per wiring diagram at
the back of the manual to achieve the synchronized mode. The Smart Reset System (SAI) has
also been included which adjusts the closure of the window in an optimum manner.
The ACK4S chain actuator is mounted when you need two or more attachment points because
the window is particularly heavy or wide and only one actuator would not allow perfect closure of
the window. It should be remembered that the force exerted by the actuators individually is the
same as a similar ACK4 actuator; for example, by mounting two actuators the force applied to the
window is, therefore, doubled. The window is moved in a uniform, synchronized and coordinated
manner with no interruptions and/or speed changes in the actuators' operation. In the event of any
failure of one of the actuators due to a mechanical or electrical fault, the others also stop operating,
guaranteeing that the window remains intact.

MAKE SURE THAT THE ABOVE DESCRIBED COMPONENTS ARE CONTAINED IN
THE PACKAGE, AS WELL AS THAT THE ACTUATOR HAS NOT BEEN DAMAGED
DURING TRANSPORT.
SHOULD ANY ANOMALY BE DETECTED, IT IS FORBIDDEN TO INSTALL THE
ACTUATOR, AND IT IS COMPULSORY TO REQUIRE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE FROM
YOUR DEALER OR THE MANUFACTURER.
THE USE OF THE ACTUATOR IN ENVIRONMENTS WITH POTENTIALLY EXPLOSIVE
ATMOSPHERE IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN.
IT IS COMPULSORY TO KEEP THE PACKAGE AND THE ACTUATOR OUT OF REACH
OF CHILDREN.
3.7- PACKAGE
Check carefully all environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, wind, snow,
potential chemical agents, etc.) and installation settings (misaligned fitting of brackets
and attachment to the frame, frictions produced by hinges or gaskets, use of self-
balancing window stays, etc.) it is recommended that they not exceed the actuator
performances shown in the technical table. If they do, please find an alternative and
more suitable product for your application.
IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO USE THE ACTUATOR FOR IMPROPER USES OTHER
THAN THE ONE FORESEEN BY THE MANUFACTURER (SEE PAR. 3.5).
IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN TO INSTALL THE ACTUATOR ON THE EXTERNAL SIDE
OF THE WINDOW FRAME SUBJECT TO ATMOSPHERIC AGENTS (RAIN, SNOW,
ETC.).
Each standard package of the product (cardboard box) contains (Fig. 4):
• No. 1 Bracket for hopper opening (Ref. B);
• No. 1 Small parts package (window connection bracket, nuts, pin and fastening
screws for aluminium window frames) (Ref. C);
• No. 1 Adhesive drilling template (Ref. D);
3.6- USE LIMITS
The actuator has been designed and manufactured exclusively for the destination of
use given in par .3.5, therefore, any other type of use is strictly forbidden in order to
assure in any moment the safety of the installer and of the user, as well as the
efficiency of the actuator itself.
• No. 1 Actuator equipped with power supply cable;
• No. 1 Installation and use instructions (Ref. E);
• No.1 Safety Plate (Fig. 5).
• No. 1 Support (Ref. A);
THE PACKAGING (PAPER, PLASTIC, ETC.) HAS TO BE DISPOSED ACCORDING TO
THE LAWS IN FORCE.

4.1- GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
DURING HANDLING AND INSTALLATION OF THE PARTS, THE PERSONNEL SHALL
BE EQUIPPED WITH SUITABLE PERSONAL PROTECTION EQUIPMENT (PPE) SO AS
TO PERFORM THE WORKS REQUIRED UNDER SAFE CONDITIONS.
ANY TAMPERING WITH OR UNAUTHORISED REPLACEMENT OF ONE OR MORE
PARTS OR COMPONENTS OF THE ACTUATOR, OR THE USE OF UNORIGINAL
ACCESSORIES AND CONSUMABLES, MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF ACCIDENT
AND THUS RELIEVES THE MANUFACTURER OF ALL CIVIL AND PENAL LIABILITY.
THIS APPLIANCE MAY NOT BE USED BY PERSONS (CHILDREN INCLUDED) WITH
REDUCED PHYSICAL, SENSORIAL OR MENTAL CAPACITIES, OR INEXPERT
PEOPLE, UNLESS THEY ARE SUPERVISED AND TAUGHT HOW TO USE IT BY A
PERSON RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR SAFETY. CHILDREN MUST BE CONTROLLED
TO MAKE SURE THEY DO NOT PLAY WITH THE APPLIANCE.
The protection measures against direct contacts aim at protecting people against
hazards due to contact with active parts, usually live parts; while the protection
measures against indirect contacts aim at protecting people against hazards due to
conducing part, which are usually insulated, but could become live in case of failure
(insulation failure).
IF THE WINDOW FRAME IS ACCESSIBLE FROM OR INSTALLED AT A HEIGHT OF
LESS THAN 2.5 m FROM THE GROUND, AND IF IT CAN BE COMMANDED BY AN
UNTRAINED USER OR WITH A REMOTE CONTROL DEVICE, FIT AN EMERGENCY
STOP SYSTEM WHICH AUTOMATICALLY CUTS IN TO PREVENT THE RISK OF
CRUSHING OR DRAGGING PARTS OF THE BODY INSERTED BETWEEN THE
MOVING AND FIXED PARTS OF THE WINDOW FRAME.
OPERATORS MUST BE INFORMED OF ACCIDENT RISKS, SAFETY DEVICES AND
THE GENERAL ACCIDENT PREVENTION REGULATIONS ESTABLISHED BY
INTERNATIONAL DIRECTIVES AND BY THE LAW IN FORCE IN THE COUNTRY OF
USE. ALL OPERATORS MUST STRICTLY COMPLY WITH THE ACCIDENT
PREVENTION REGULATIONS IN FORCE IN THE COUNTRY OF USE.
The adopted protection measures are the following:
DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER THE PLATES PLACED ON THE ACTUATOR BY THE
MANUFACTURER.
4.2.1- PROTECTION AGAINST ELECTRIC HAZARD
4.2- SAFETY DEVICES
The actuator is protected against electric hazard due to direct and indirect contacts.
EXTRAORDINARY AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE OPERATIONS INVOLVING THE
TOTAL OR PARTIAL DISMOUNTING OF THE ACTUATOR MAY ONLY BE PERFORMED
AFTER DISCONNECTING IT FROM THE POWER SUPPLY.

INSTALLATION AND USE ISTRUCTIONS
SAFETY -4ACK4S

Fig. 5 illustrates the safety plate: this must applied directly to the outside of the actuator
or near it and always in a position where it can be seen by the installer and/or operator.
4.4- RESIDUAL RISKS
1) Insulation of live parts by means of a plastic material body;
4.3- SAFETY PLATES
2) Enclosure with suitable protection degree;
3) Only for the mod. ACK4S/230V provided with protection against electric
shocks: Protection of passive type given by the use of components with double
insulation, also called components of class II or with equivalent insulation.
IT IS FORBIDDEN TO REMOVE, MOVE, SPOIL OR IN ANYWAY REDUCE THE
VISIBILITY OF THE SAFETY PLATES. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE ABOVE MAY
CAUSE SERIOUS HARM TO PEOPLE AND DAMAGE TO PROPERTY. THE
MANUFACTURER DECLINES ALL LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE
FAILURE TO OBSERVE THE ABOVE REQUIREMENT.
The installer and the user are herewith informed that after the actuator has been
installed on the window, the actuator drive can accidentally generate the following
residual risk:
Exposure frequency: Accidental and when the installer or the user decides to perform
a wrong voluntary action.
Severity of the damage:Light lesions (usually reversible).
Residual risk:Hazard of squashing or dragging of body parts inserted between the
movable and the fix part of the window frame.
Adopted measures:Before enabling the device, it is compulsory to verify that near the
window there are not persons, animals or things whose safety may be accidentally
jeopardized. During actuator operation, it is compulsory to be in a safe control position
assuring visual control on the window movement (see par. 6.1).
