2. Never let children operate or play with gate controls. Keep the remote control away from
children.

3. Always keep people and objects away from the gate. NO ONE SHOULD CROSS THE
PATH OF THE MOVING GATE.

4. Test the gate operator monthly. The gate MUST reverse on contact with a rigid object or
stop when an object activates the non-contact sensors. After adjusting the force or the
limit of travel, retest the gate operator. Failure to adjust and retest the gate operator
properly can increase the risk of injury or death.

5. Use the emergency release only when the gate is not moving.

6. KEEP GATES PROPERLY MAINTAINED. Read the installation manual and have a
qualified service person make repairs to gate hardware.

7. The entrance is for vehicles only. Pedestrians must use separate entrance.

8. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

Instructions regarding intended installation of the gate operator.

A. Install the gate operator only when:

1. The operator is appropriate for the construction of the gate and the usage Class of
the gate,

2. All openings of a horizontal slide gate are guarded or screened from the bottom of
the gate to a minimum of 4 feet (1.22m) above the ground to prevent a 2-1/4 inch

(57.2mm) diameter sphere from passing through the openings anywhere in the
gate, and in that portion of the adjacent fence that the gate covers in the open
position,

3. All exposed pinch points are eliminated or guarded, and

4. Guarding is supplied for exposed rollers.

B. The operator is intended for installation only on gates for vehicles. Pedestrians must be

supplied with a separate access opening. The pedestrian access opening shall be

designed to promote pedestrian usage. Locate the gate such that persons will not come in
contact with the vehicular gate during the entire path of travel of the vehicular gate.

C. The gate must be installed in a location so that enough clearance is supplied between the

gate and adjacent structures when opening and closing to reduce the risk of entrapment.
Swinging gates shall not open into public access areas.

D. The gate must be properly installed and work freely in both directions prior to the

installation of the gate operator. Do not over-tighten the operator clutch or pressure relief
valve to compensate for a damaged gate.

E. For gate operators utilizing Type D protection:

1. The gate operator controls must be placed so that the user has full view of the gate
area when the gate is not moving.

2. The placard provided marked in letters at least ¼-in(6.4mm) high with the word
“Warning” and the following statement or the equivalent: “Moving Gate Can
Cause Serious Injury or Death” shall be placed adjacent to the controls,

3. An automatic closing device (such as a timer, loop sensor, or similar device) shall
not be employed, and

4. No other activation device shall be connected.

F. Controls intended for user activation must be located at least six feet (6’) away from any

moving part of the gate and where the user is prevented from reaching over, under,
around or through the gate to operate the controls. Outdoor or easily accessible controls
shall have a security feature to prevent unauthorized use.

of the reset shall not cause the operator to start.

H. A minimum of two (2) WARNING SIGNS shall be installed, one on each side of the

gate where easily visible.

I. All gate operators systems should include safety devices such as reversing edges or

photocells in order to provide added protection. These safety devices should be installed
in accordance to the design and application of the system being installed.

accessories and should observe these minimum procedures:

a. Power should be disconnected before installing or servicing a gate operator.
b. All electrical wiring should comply with all local building and electrical codes.
c. All entrapment zones and pinching points should be covered.
d. All safety devices should be tested to assure their proper functionality.

WARNING!

Important instructions for the safety of people:

READ CAREFULLY!

Foreword

• Use of the products must be restricted to its intended use
(i.e. that for which it was expressly built for). Any other use is
to be considered dangerous. Came Cancelli Automatici S.p.A.
is not liable for any damage resulting from improper, wrongful
or unreasonable use • Keep these warnings with the installa­tion and use manuals issued with the automated system.

Before installing

(preliminary check: in case of a negative

outcome, do not proceed before having

complied with the safety obligations)

• Make sure that the parts you intend to automate are in
good working order, and that they are properly balanced
and aligned. Also, make sure that proper mechanical stops
are already in place • If the operator will be installed at a
height of less than 2.5 m from the ground or other access
level, check whether you will need any protections and/or
warnings • Any gate leaves, fi tted with pedestrian entrances,
onto which you will install an operator, must have a blocking
mechanism when the gate is in motion • Make sure that the
opening of the automated gate is not an entrapment hazard
as regards any surrounding fi xed parts • Do not mount the
operator upside down or onto any elements that may fold
under its weight. If needed, add suitable reinforcements at
the points where it is secured • Do not install onto gates on
either an upward or downward slope (i.e. that are not on fl at,
level ground) • Check that any lawn watering devices will not
wet the gearmotor from the bottom up.

Installation

• Carefully section off the entire site to prevent unauthorised
access, especially by minors and children • Be careful when
handling operators that weigh more than 20 Kg (see installa­tion manual). In such cases, employ proper weight handling
safety equipment • All opening commands (e.g. buttons, key
selectors, magnetic detectors, etc.) must be installed at least

1.85 m from the gate’s area of operation perimeter - or where
they cannot be reached from the outside of the gate. Also,
the direct commands (e.g. push button, or proximity devices,
etc.) must be installed at a height of at least 1.5 m and must
not be accessible to the public • All ‘maintained action’ com­mands, must be placed where the moving gate leaves, transit
areas and driveways are completely visible • If missing, ap­ply a permanent label that shows the position of the release
mechanism • Before delivering to the client, verify that the
system is EN 12453 (impact test) standard compliant. Make
sure that the operator has been properly adjusted and that the
safety and protection devices, as well as the manual release

are working properly • Where necessary and in plain sight,
apply the Warning Sings (e.g. gate plate).

Special instructions and

advice for users

• Keep the gate’s area of operation clean and clear of any
obstacles. Trim any vegetation that may interfere with the
photocells • Do not allow children to play with the fi xed com­mand devices, or in the gate’s area of operation. Keep any
remote control devices (i.e. transmitters) away from the chil­dren as well • Frequently check the system, to see whether
any anomalies or signs of wear and tear appear on the moving
parts, on the component parts, on the securing points, on the
cables and any accessible connections. Keep any joints (i.e.
hinges) lubricated and clean, and do the same where fric­tion may occur (i.e. slide rails) • Perform functional tests on
photocells and sensitive edges, every six months. Keep glass
panels constantly clean (use a slightly water-moistened cloth;
do not use solvents or any other chemical products) • If the
system requires repairs or modifi cations, release the operator
and do not use it until safety conditions have been restored

• Cut off the power supply before releasing the operator for
manual openings. See instructions • Users are FORBIDDEN
to carry out ANY ACTIONS THAT THEY HAVE NOT BEEN
EXPRESSLY ASKED TO DO OR SO INDICATED in the manu­als. Any repairs, modifi cations to the settings and extraor­dinary maintenance MUST BE DONE BY THE TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE STAFF • On the periodic maintenance log, note
down the checks you have done.

Special instructions and

advice for all

• Avoid working near the hinges or moving mechanical parts

• Stay clear of the gate’s area of operation when in motion •
Do not resist the direction of movement of the gate; this may
present a safety hazard • At all times be extremely careful
about dangerous points that must be indicated by proper
pictograms and/or black and yellow stripes • When using
a selector or command in ‘maintained action’ mode, keep
checking that there are no people in the area of operation of
the moving parts. Do this until you release the command •
The gate may move at any time without warning • Always cut
the power when cleaning performing maintenance.
