1 Safety advice

Please read the following safety indications carefully before mounting the drive and
keep this manual for future consultation.
Intended use
• The chain drive ELTRAL KS 30/40 is designed exclusively for the automatic opening
and closing of tilt windows, top hung outward opening windows, side hung windows,
horizontal and vertical pivot windows, roof lights and small domes.
Any use of the drive for applications other than those indicated must be authorised by
the manufacturer who cannot be held liable for damage arising from improper use.
• In the case of bottom hung tilt sashes, it is necessary to always install additional
security stays or another suitable catching device preventing the sash from acciden-
tal fall. Ensure that the opening distance of the catching device is sufficiently large
to match the stroke of the drive.
• Always verify if your appliance complies with the prevailing regulations. Special
attention must be paid to : opening distance of window, allowed installation dimen-
sions, opening speed, compressive force, cross section of connecting cable depen-
ding on cable length and current consumption.
• Fixing material must be compatible with the structure and supplemented if required.
• The drive is designed for the use in dry rooms only. Ensure that it is permanently pro-
tected against moisture and dirt.
Assembly
• The appliance must only be assembled and serviced by experienced and qualified
technical staff competent in the installation of electrical drives.
• After removing all packaging, please verify that all parts of the appliance are present
and intact.

Plastic bags and small parts such as clips etc. must be kept out of the reach of chil-
dren as they are potential sources of danger.
• Read and observe all details of the assembly instructions which are to be kept for
future consultation. Reliable functioning and prevention of risk and damage are only
achieved with accurate assembly and setting according to the instructions.
• All dimensions of the particular location are the responsibility of the installer. Ensure
that the terminal assignment is correct. Observe the allowed drive voltage (see type
label) and the minimum and maximum ratings (see technical data). Carefully adhere
to all assembly details given.
Cable routeing and electrical connection
• Cable routeing and electrical connection must only be carried out by approved elec-
tricians. The current supply must be in accordance with all prevailing regulations,
directives and standards.
• An all-pole circuit breaker with a minimum contact opening of 3 mm must always be
installed before the control line.
• Any connecting work must be carried out with the drive control cut off from the
mains. There is risk of injury and even danger of life as a result of electrical shock !
Risk of crushing!
• The opening and closing action is stopped by the integral load interruption. During
function the drive applies a pressure force of approx. 300 N which is enough to crush
fingers or other parts of the body. Never get your hands or other parts of your body,
nor any objects between sash and frame as the drive is operating !
• Unless installed higher than 2,5 m above floor level, sashes must be safeguarded

with devices stopping the sash movement as soon as they are touched by a person.
However, if the dangerous zone can be completely overlooked from the operating
station and if the installation is operated by authorised and trained persons only (e.g.
via key switch), such safety devices are not required. Country specific regulations are
to be observed.
Cleaning and maintenance
• Do not clean the appliance with solvent cleaning agents.
Do not immerse the appliance in water.
• Electrical system, drive and fittings must be checked for proper functioning and for
damage at least once a year.
• Do not try to repair the drive yourself in case of failure. Do not remove the casing nor
other parts. In case of signs of damage to the appliance contact the manufacturer.
Only spare parts supplied by the manufacturer may be used for repair.
