• WARRANTY CERTIFICATE ON THE CUSTOMER’S REQUEST

The growth of MECCANICA FADINI has always been based on the development of guaranteed products thanks to our “TOTAL QUALITY

CONTROL” system which ensures constant quality standards, updated knowledge of the European Standards and compliance with

their requirements, in view of an ever increasing process of improvement.

The “CE” mark certifies that the operator conforms to the essential requirements of the European Directive art. 10 EEC 73/23, in relation

to the manufacturer’s declaration for the supplied items, in compliance with the body of the regulations ISO 9000= UNI EN 29000.

Automation in conformity to EN 12453, EN 12445 safety standards.

10-2005

IMPORTANT WARNING NOTES

- Before installing the equipment carry out a Risk Analysis and fit any required device in compliance with EN 12445 and EN 12453 Safety Norms.

- It is recommended to keep to the instructions here outlined. Check the specifications on the motor sticker with your mains supply.

- Dispose properly of the packaging: cardboard, nylon, polystyrene, through specializing companies.

- Should the operator be removed, do not cut the electric cable. This must be properly removed from the terminal board in the junction box.

- Switch off the mains switch before removing the junction box cover where the electric cable is terminated.

- All the system must be earthed by using the yellow/green wire, marked by its specific symbol.

- It is recommended to read the regulations, suggestions and remarks quoted in the booklet “Safety Norms”.

CHECKING AND MAINTENANCE:

To achieve an optimum performance and longer life of the equipment and in observance of the safety regulations, it is recommended that inspections

and proper maintenance are made by qualified technicians to the whole installation ie, both the mechanical and electronic parts, as well as wiring:

- Mechanical parts: maintenance every 6 months approx.

- Eletronic apparatus and safety equipment: maintenance every month.

Should the upper and lower fixing ends of the bracket “M” not coincide with the upper and lower edges of the door, it is recommended

to rivet, screw or spot weld an iron reinforcement plate (100 mm - 5 mm thickness) vertically across the door so to connect the top and

bottom edges of the door as shown in pic. 4

Once the bracket “M” has been fixed, it is to be determined whether the telescopic arms are to overlap the existing door arms or be

fixed parallel to them. See pic. 5 and 6. Then proceed to weld the fixing plates as indicated by the distances in pic.5

When very large doors are involved with a service door in the middle, it is recommended to install two operators Aproli 480 on to the

door sides without connecting the shaft inner ends. Fixing dimensions and measurements are as explained before in the previous

application drawings. It is also recommended to fit the service door with a safety microswitch as shown in pic.18

When two operators are required for one door, it is recommended to install the control panel “Elpro 13 CEI” and one pair of photocells

Trifo 11. These are to be fixed on to the “counterweight case” 40 cm from ground level.

For the installation of Aproli 480 on to garage doors with upper track follow the same instructions as explained before; the shaft ie. the

torsion fulcrum must coincide with the centre line of the door, right in the middle between upper and lower guide rollers. See Pic. 20

Please note, once Aproli 480 has been fixed, unscrew the air bleed screw by one turn. This screw is fitted on the cap of the oil container,

where the voltage supplying cable is led to the motor. Pic.21 Should the operator «Aproli 480» be removed for maintenance or repairing

tighten the screw «S» to prevent oil from coming out during handling.

For jack-knife doors, the same instructions apply as for single-panel doors as explained in the previous pages. Only please note that

with articulated doors as the above type, it is recommended to fix the operator so that the shaft and the torsion bars are 80-100 mm

below the door hinge centre line. Pic.19
