Safety instructions
• Installation, connection and initial operation of the operator may only be
carried out by qualified specialists.
• Do not operate the door if people, animals or objects are in its range of
travel.
• Keep children, disabled persons, and animals away from the door.
• Safety goggles should be worn when drilling the mounting holes.
• Cover the operator when drilling to ensure that no grime penetrates the
unit.
The walls and ceiling must be firm and stable. Only fit the opera-
tor 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
reinforced before installation if necessary. Ask your dealer for advice.
• Remove door locking system or disable same.
• Only use approved fixing material (e.g. plugs, screws). The fixing materi-
als must be suitable to the wall and ceiling material.
• Check that the door runs easily.
• The door must be balanced.
Test: Manually open the door half-way. The door must remain in this
position. If the door moves downward or upward, then
mechanically readjust it. Ask your dealer for advice.
• Check the clearance between the door’s highest up-position (DHP, see
fig. 7) and the ceiling. The minimum clearance is 35 mm and the maxi-
mum clearance is 100 mm; the push arm can be at a max angle of 30°. If
clearance is less than that specified, then the operator must be shifted
towards the rear and an extended operator rail must be fitted. Ask your
local dealer 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 people.
• The operator can be installed to one side of the door if it cannot be
installed at the centre. In this regard, you must ensure that the door does
not bend and thus jam in the guide rails.
Test: Open and close the door several times by hand, holding it at the
point where you intend fitting the operator. If the door can be
moved at this point without difficulty (in compliance with the
prescribed forces), then the operator can be fitted.
• Emergency release:
If the garage has no separate entrance (e.g. slip-door), the user must be
able to operate the emergency release mechanism from the outside.
Consequently, route the emergency release to the outside. This can be
done with a Bowden cable or an emergency release lock. The backjump
(DIP switch 6 ON) should always be activated in this process.
• Up-and-over doors
As the mechanical lock of a door with an operator must be dismantled or
deactivated, it is possible to open the door manually up to app. 50 mm
depending on the door design.
To counter this situation, spring latches can be installed that lock the
door, in addition to the operator. These spring latches are connected to
the operator via a locking set in order to first unlock the spring latches
before the operator opens the door. Ask your dealer for advice.
Other pulse generators include: Remote control transmitters,
Telecody, radio-operated interior switches and key-operated
buttons. No connection line to the operator needs to be installed
for the remote control transmitters, Telecody or radio-operated
interior switches, ask your dealer.

Installation tips
• Determine the mounting points for the operator and the signal light
control unit together with the operator.
• Determine the mounting point of the signal lights and additional
accessories together with the operator.
• Do not install the housing where it can be seen from the street, otherwise
passersby could damage the control unit.
