USER’S MANUAL

ENGLISH

Thank you for buying this product, our company is sure that you will be more than satisfied with the product’s performance. The product is supplied with a “Warnings” leaflet and an “Instruction booklet”. These should both be read carefully as they provide important information about safety, installation, operation and maintenance. This product complies with the recognised technical standards and safety regulations. We declare that this product is in conformity with the following European Directives: 89/336/ EEC and 73/23/EEC (and subsequent amendments).

1) GENERAL OUTLINE

The DEIMOS actuator offers ample installation versatility, thanks to the extremely low position of its pinion, its compact shape and the height and depth adjustments available. The adjustable mechanical clutch ensures antisquash safety and provides smooth progressive starting operations. The emergency manual release manoeuvre can be carried out very easily by means of a knob supplied with a standard key, or an optional personalised key. The end-of-stroke stop is controlled by electromechanical microswitches or, for very cold areas, by proximity sensors. The control unit can be either incorporated or fitted to a separate panel.

2) SAFETY

If correctly installed and used, this automation device satisfies the required safety level standards. However, it is advisable to observe some practical rules in order to avoid accidental problems. Before using the automation device, carefully read the operation instructions and keep them for future reference.

• Keep children, persons and things outside the automation working area, particularly during operation.

• Keep radio control or other control devices out of children’s reach, in order to avoid any unintentional automation activation.

• Do not intentionally oppose the leaf movement.

• Do not attempt to open the gate by hand, if the actuator has not been released by means of the appropriate release knob.

• Do not modify the automation components.

• In case of malfunction, disconnect the power supply, activate the emergency release to gain access to the actuator and request the assistance of a qualified technician (installer).

• Before proceeding to any external cleaning operation, disconnect the mains powers supply and at least one of the battery pole, if fitted.

• Keep the photocell optical components and luminous signal indication devices clean. Check that the safety devices (photocells) are not obscured by branches or shrubs.

• For any direct assistance to the automation system, request the assistance of a qualified technician (installer).

• Have qualified personnel check the automation system once a year.

3) MANUAL RELEASE

The manual or emergency release is to be activated when a gate must be opened by hand, and in all cases where the automation system fails to operate or operates incorrectly. To carry out the emergency manoeuvre, proceed as follows:

• Insert the standard key into its appropriate seat (fig. 1) and rotate it anticlockwise (90°), then rotate the release knob clockwise along its entire stroke. This way the pinion is made to idle, and therefore allows the gate to be opened by hand.

Warning: Do not push the gate leaf hard, but rather help it along its entire stroke.

• To reset motor-driven control, rotate the knob anticlockwise along its entire stroke, and then rotate the standard key clockwise until it is held tight. Keep the key in a safe place which is known to all the people concerned.

In the case where the release knob is supplied with a personalised key (fig.

2), proceed as follows:

• Insert the personalised key into the lock, rotate the key anticlockwise by 90°.

• Hold the release knob and rotate it clockwise (fig. 2) until it stops. This way the pinion is made to idle, and therefore allows the gate to be opened by hand.

• Push the gate leaf by hand, helping it along its entire stroke. The key cannot be taken out of the lock until the knob is brought back to its initial position (motor-driven activation).

• To reset motor-driven control, rotate the knob anticlockwise along its entire stroke, move the key back to its locking position; then take the key out and keep it in a safe place which is known to all the people concerned.

4) MAINTENANCE AND DEMOLITION

The maintenance of the system should only be carried out by qualified personnel regularly. The materials making up the set and its packing must be disposed of according to the regulations in force.

4) PRELIMINARY CHECKS

Before proceeding to any installation work, check that the gate structure conforms to whatever is prescribed by the current standards, and in particular that:

• The gate sliding track is linear and horizontal, and the wheels are

suitable for supporting the gate weight.

• The gate manual operation can be carried out smoothly along its entire

run, and there is no excessive side slipping.

• A correct play is provided between the upper guide and the gate to

ensure regular noiseless movement.

• The opening and closing gate stops are positioned.

• The established position for gearmotor fixing allows the emergency

manoeuvre to be carried out smoothly and safely. In the case where the elements checked do not meet the above requirements, proceed to carrying out the necessary corrective actions or replacements.

WARNING: Remember that control devices are intended to facilitate gate operation, but can not solve problems due to any defects or deficiency resulting from failure to carry out correct installation or maintenance.

Take the product out of its packing and inspect it for damage. Should it be damaged, contact your dealer. Remember to dispose of its components (cardboard, polystyrene, nylon, etc.) according to the current prescriptions.

5) BASE PLATE ANCHORING

5.1) Standard position

• Dig a hole where the cement pad with the buried base plate log bolts is

to be placed in order to fix the reduction gear unit (fig.3). If the sliding track is already there, digging must be partly carried out in the track foundation casting. This way, should the track foundation casting sag, the gearmotor base would also lower, thus maintaining the play between pinion and rack (approximately 1-2 mm).

• Position the base plate according to the dimensions specified in fig.4.

• The pinion symbol printed on the base plate must be visible and directed

towards the gate. This also ensures the correct positioning of the raceways for electrical connections.

• Let the flexible pipes containing electrical cables protrude from the

base plate.

• In order to keep the base plate in its correct position during installation,

it may be useful to weld two iron flat bars under the track, and then weld
