Model 710 Swing Door System
CAUTION:
Read these safety practices before installing, operating or servicing the automatic door. Failure to follow
these practices may result in serious consequences.
Read, study and understand the operating instructions contained in or referenced in this manual before
operating. If you do not understand the instruction, ask the installing qualified technician to teach you
how to use the door.
This manual and the owners’ manual must be given to and retained by the purchasing facility or end
user.
1. If the door appears broken or does not seem to work correctly, it should be immediately removed
from service and a qualified service technician contacted for corrective action.
2. Disconnect power at the fused disconnect during all electrical or mechanical service. When uncertain
whether power supply is disconnected, always verify using a voltmeter.
3. All electrical troubleshooting or service must be performed by qualified electrical technicians and
must comply with all applicable governing agency codes.
4. It is the responsibility of the installing door technician to install all warning and instructional labels in
accordance with ANSI A156.19.
5. It is the responsibility of the purchasing facility or end user to keep warning and instructional labels
and literature legible, intact and with the door.
6. Replacement labels and literature may be obtained from local NABCO Entrances Inc. distributors.
If the name of the local distributor is unknown, contact NABCO Entrances Inc. at (877-622-2694)
for assistance.
7. Do not place finger or uninsulated tools inside the electrical control box. Touching wires or other
parts inside the enclosure may cause electrical shock, serious injury or death.
To The InstallerThe purpose of this manual is to familiarize the purchaser with the proper
installation and operation of this system. It is essential that this equipment be
properly installed and operational before the door is used by the public. It is the
purchaser’s responsibility to inspect the operation of the entrance system to be
sure it complies with any applicable standards. In the United States, ANSI
Standard 156.19 usually covers this type of door. Other local standards or codes
may apply. Use them in addition to the ANSI Standard. The GT 710 is listed
with the Underwriters Laboratory and is identified as such on the label.
Instruct the building owners/operator on the essentials of the operation of the door
and this device. The owner should follow these instructions to determine whether
the door is operating properly and should immediately call for service if there is
any malfunction.
All installation changes and adjustments must be made by qualified, NABCO
trained technicians.
OverviewEarlier version of the NABCO GT710 can be retrofitted with the newer Magnum
Control Board (Magnum IV). This combination offers several control features
that accommodate most installations.

Hydraulic CloserThe door closer has an adjustment for “opening force” when the doors is used in a
manual mode that is preset at the factory. The setting is based on a 30-inch
exterior door and a 38-inch interior door. Adjustments are made using an allen
wrench as shown in Figure 7. Turn the screw clockwise for larger doors and
The hydraulic closer must be operating properly BEFORE the Magnum control is
adjusted.
Warning: Improperly installed or adjusted closers may cause property
damage or personal injury. Please follow these instructions carefully.
Do not allow the door to slam into the frame. A “normal” closing time from a
90º open position is five to seven seconds, evenly divided between main
swing speed and latch swing speed. Use the furnished hex key to adjust
speed.
1. Remove one lead from the motor.
2. Adjust the main and latch speeds.
To slow MAIN SPEED of door, turn the main speed screw clockwise.
To slow LATCH SPEED of door, turn the latch speed screw clockwise.

3. Reconnect motor lead.
Note: It may be necessary to rotate the output shaft with the arm to align the
holes in the large sprocket with the access holes in the header.
The GT 710 has two magnetic switches that control the back check location
and monitors the door closed position. The back check magnet must be installed
before the unit is tested. It signals the motor to slow down so the door does not
slam open.
The door closed magnet is optional. It is used to signal the control board that the
door is closed. It is used in applications where a sensor is on the swing side of
the door and wired into the safety with lockout circuit. The switches are closed
by magnets installed by the installer onto the main sprocket gear.
The magnets are not inside the header!
Locate the ¼-inch square and 1-inch long magnets in the parts bag. To position
the magnets, use the appropriate configuration from Figures 10 through 13.
Start with the door in the closed position. Place a magnet under the door closed
switch with the white side up. This magnet will deactivate the optional presence
detector as the door begins to open.
Move the door to the 45º position. Place a magnet under the back check switch
with the white side up. The magnet is positioned to move under the switch when
the door is opened to 45º. Use the appropriate configuration from Figures 10through 13. This magnet will command the motor to reduce the door speed to
the setting of the back check potentiometer. Improper placement of this magnet
will cause the door to slam into the door stop.
After power is applied to the unit and the position of the magnets is “fine tuned”
to make the door functional, the magnets should be epoxied in place following the
instructions on the epoxy packaging.
The installer first has to configure each of the doors independently with the
speeds and timing desired. Then adjust the potentiometers on the door controller
to closely mimic those settings.
Control SwitchesAn ON-OFF-HOLD OPEN switch assembly has been provided in the harness. It
can be mounted inside the header or where it is easily accessible to the customer.
Drill a 7/8” diameter hole in the center of the location to install the switch. Use
the switch as a template to drill (2) 11/64” diameter mounting holes. Use the two
screws provided to mount the switch. It the switch assembly is not desired,
replace it with jumper from the parts bag.
SignageAfter the door has been adjusted properly and tested, decals should be applied to
the door such that they are visible from either side of the door. Depending on the
type of the door activation, certain decals must be displayed. Refer to Section 6
of ANSI A156.19 Standard for Power Assist and Lower Energy Power Operated
Doors. Decals have been provided with the GT 710 to comply with all the
installation applications described in ANSI A156.19.
