6. Installation
6.1 Preparations
Plan the installation site and in particular the routing of the cable from the door to the device. Measure the opening of the chicken door and
provide a suitable door with guide rails. Get all of the components ready. You will find suitable sliders and pulleys in our range of accessories.
6.2 Suitable installation site and installation conditions
CAUTION!
Risk of physical injury and material damage if used incorrectly!
• Do not extend the pull cord.
• The impact of force from the pull cord can cause injury to humans and animals.
• Incorrect setup can create hazardous zones for humans or animals.
For the automatic chicken door's electronics unit, find an installation site with a level and stable base. Be aware that when the slider is opened, a
higher load is exerted on the device than its own weight alone. The installation site
must be protected from the ingress of rain.
If necessary, use the pulleys to guide the cord with slight movement of the
electronics unit towards the door opening. The illustration shows a number of
setup options. The electronics unit is always installed in an upright position with
the cord outlet on the underside.
The slider or the first pulley must be installed so that the cord is straight when
it exits the device. The device or the last pulley must be installed so that the slider
is pulled straight upwards.
6.3 Attaching the slider and electronics unit
1) Attach the door, e.g. to one of the sliders available in our range (Art. 70560, Art. 70570 , 70580).
Then ensure that the following requirements are met:
• The slider weighs a maximum of 2.5 kg.
• The slider moves in a vertical direction and is placed in the closed position by gravity.
• The slider moves easily. No great amount of force is required to open the slider, and when the slider is released it closes independently
and reliably. If necessary, use a few drops of oil.
• The pull cord can be routed unhindered from the door to the device without chafing against foreign bodies.
• The guide rails of the slider are precision-installed so that the slider closes the opening of the coop reliably.
• The distance from slider to building wall does not exceed 5 mm throughout the slider's entire movement path, which is travelled during
opening. When the slider is closed, the building's opening is no longer open at the top. There would otherwise be a risk that body parts could
be crushed when the slider is pulled up.
• The device, all pulleys and the slider are all on one level. The cord will then not chafe against the side limit of the pulleys later on.
• All pulleys can be turned without a high degree of resistance.
2) Fasten the electronics unit.
6.4 Connecting the pull cord
Connect the pull cord to the slider. To do this, proceed as follows (see also the following sketch):
1. First move the electronics to the upper terminal position. For this, illuminate the light sensor.
The cord is rolled up in the electronics unit until the knot for the end stop arrives at the housing.
2. Then move the slider to the upper terminal position (slider fully open). Please leave a little distance (min. 50 mm) between the slider's possible
terminal stops or obstacles for the upper terminal position so that the motor has enough time to switch off before any excess load develops.
3. Connect the cord to the slider so that the slider is in the upper terminal position when the cord is taut.
4. Knot the cord.
5. Finally, using a pair of scissors, cut off the excess length of the cord.
