Safety instructions
• Installation, connection and initial operation of the drive mechanism may
only be carried out by qualified specialists.
• Do not operate the door when people, animals or objects are in its area
of movement.
• Keep children, disabled persons and animals away from the door.
• Safety goggles should be worn when drilling the mounting holes.
• Cover the drive mechanism up when drilling to ensure it does not get
soiled.
The walls and ceiling must be firm and stable. Only fit the drive
mechanism to a correctly aligned door. A door that has not been
aligned correctly can cause serious injuries.
• Doors must be stable because they are subjected to high traction and
pressure forces. Light doors made of plastic or aluminium must be
strengthened before installation if necessary. Ask your specialist retailer
for advice.
• Remove door locking system or disable same.
• Only use approved fixing materials (e.g. screws, plugs) that are appropri-
ate for the given material the ceilings and walls are made of.
• Check that the door runs easily.
• The door must be balanced.
Test : Manually open the door half-way. It must stay still in this position.
If the door moves downwards or upwards, mechanically readjust
it. Ask your specialist retailer for advice.
• Check the distance between the highest door position (HDP, see fig. 7 for
sprint/marathon and fig. 11 for duo) and the ceiling. The distance
between HDP and the lower edge of the C-rail must be between mini-
mum 5 mm and maximum 65 mm, whereby the push rod must be at an
angle of max. 30° (see fig. 17)! If the clearance is less than is permissi-
ble, the drive mechanism has to be moved back and an extended drive
rail fitted. Ask your local stockist for advice.

Installation tips
• Check that all the parts have been supplied before you start installation
work in order to save time and unnecessary work if a part is missing.
• Installation work can be carried out quickly and reliably by two persons.
• The drive mechanism can be installed to one side of the door if it cannot
be installed at the centre. It is important to note that the door does not
bend as a result and jam in the guide rails.
Check : Open and close the door several times by hand
holding it at the point where you intend fitting the drive
mechanism. If the door can be moved in this way
without difficulty (in compliance with the above forces),
then the drive mechanism can be fitted at this point.
• Emergency Release
If the garage has no separate entrance (e.g. wicket-door), the user must
be able to operate the emergency release mechanism from the outside.
This is why the emergency release should be run to the outside where it
can be activated via a Bowden wire or a release lock. See 'Accessories'
section.
• Canopy and non-protruding doors
As the mechanical lock of a door with a drive mechanism has to be
dismantled or deactivated, it is possible to open the door manually up to
approx. 50mm depending on the door construction.
In order that, when opening the doors, the spring latches are unlocked
first before the drive opens the door. These spring latches are
connected to the drive via a locking set in order to first unlock the spring
latches before a drive opens the door when opening the door.
• Swing door / Side-opening sectional door
In the case of drives that push open a door of the above-mentioned type
(see fig.), the connections made in the direct socket unit have to be
swapped around as follows:
- wires 12 + 13 (marathon)
- wires 3 + 4 (sprint and duo).
Other pulse generators include: Funkcodys, radio-operated
interior switches and key-operated switches. In the case of the
Funkcody and radio-operated interior switch, no cable need be
run to the drive. Contact your local dealer for advice.
