2 Installation Instructions

Note

Always cover the operator before drilling, since dust and

chippings can lead to malfunctions.

2.1 Garage door operator

2.2 Required clearance for installing the operator

When installing the operator, the clearance between the

highest point of the door on opening and the ceiling must

be at least 30 mm (see fig. 1.1a / 1.1b). Please check

these dimensions!

2.3 On a sectional door the internal mechanical latch must

be completely dismantled (see figure 1.3a).

ATTENTION

When installing the operator, the pull cord

must be removed. (see figure 1.2a)

2.4 Centrally positioned lock on a sectional door

For sectional doors with a centrally positioned lock, affix

the lintel bracket attachment and the door link bracket

off-centre (see fig. 1.5a).

2.5 Off-centred reinforcement profile on a sectional door

In the case of an off-centred reinforcement profile on a

sectional door, fix the door link bracket to the nearest

reinforcement profile on the left or right (see fig. 1.5a).

Note

Wooden doors

Divergent from the illustrated section, these doors require wood

screws 5 x 35 from the accessory bag of the door (drilling ∅

3 mm).

2.6 The mechanical door latches on an up-and-over

door must be immobilized (see figure 1.2b/1.3b/1.4b). In

the case of door models not listed here, the catches

must be locked on site.

2.7 Note

Up-and-over doors with a forged iron door handle

Divergent from the illustrated section (see fig. 1.5b /

1.6b), these doors require the lintel bracket attachment

and the door link bracket to be affixed off-centre.

2.8 Guiding rail

ATTENTION

Dependent from the respective application object,

the garage door operators have to be utilised

exclusively using the guiding rails recommended by

us (see product information).

2.9 Before installing the guiding rail

Note

Before the guiding rail is mounted g, the boom has to be pushed

approx. 20 cm from the end-of-travel position CLOSE to the

end-of-travel position OPEN in the clutched in position. This is

no more possible in the clutched in position as soon as the limit

stop and the operator are mounted (see figure 2.1).

2.10 Mounting the guiding rail

Note

For operators in underground car parks and collective car parks

it is necessary to fix the guiding rail with a second hitch under

the garage ceiling; it is mounted according to figure 2.4 and

2.6.

2.11 Operation types: guiding rail

The guiding rail has two different operation types:

2.11.1 Manual operation (see figure 4.1)

The guiding hitch is declutched from the flange lock / belt

lock; i.e. there is no direct connection between the door

and the operator, so that the door can be handled

manually.

To declutch the guiding rail, the wire of the mechanic

unlocking must be pulled.

Note

If the guiding slide is in the position CLOSED when

declutching, the wire of the mechanic unlocking must be pulled

until the guiding slide with the rail has been moved as far as it

can no more hook into the limit stop (approx. 3 cm sliding way).

To operate the door permanently manually, the wire has to be

fixed to the guiding slide as shows figure 4.2.

ATTENTION

In countries where the norm EN 13241-1 are valid,

the garage door operator upgraded by a competent

person on a sectional door without spring

breakage saving, the responsible installer has to

mount also a upgrade set at the guiding slide. This

set consists of both a screw which protects the

guiding slide from an uncontrolled release and a

new pull unit, on which the figures show how to

handle the set and the guiding slide for the two

operation types of the guiding slide.

2.11.2 Automatic operation (see figure 6)

The flange lock / belt lock is clutched in the guiding slide,

i.e. the door and the operator are connected with each

other, so that the door and the operator can be handled

together.

To prepare the guiding slide to the clutching, the green

button must be pushed. Afterwards the flange / belt have

to be moved to the direction of the guiding slide until the

flange lock / belt lock clutches into it.

CAUTION

Do not insert fingers into the boom while

the door is moving ► trap risk!

2.12 Establishing the "CLOSE" end-of-travel position by

installing the limit stop (see figure 5)

1) The limit stop for the end-of-travel position “CLOSE”

has to be put loosely in the guiding rail between guiding

slide and door and the door has to be handled manually

to the end-of-travel position “CLOSED”.

Thus the limit stop is pushed close to the right position.

After reaching the end-of-travel position “CLOSED”, the

limit stop has to be pushed close to the guiding slide and

fastened afterwards.
