General Safety Precautions; Machinery Directive - Hafele 940.41.043 Montageanleitung / Betriebssanleitung

GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

These installation instructions are intended for qualified
personnel only.
Installation, electrical connections and adjustments must be
performed in accordance with Good Working Methods and in
compliance with applicable regulations.
Before installing the product, carefully read the instructions. A poor
installation could be hazardous.
The packaging materials (plastic, polystyrene, etc.) should not be
discarded in the environment or left within reach of children, as
these are a potential source of hazard.
Before installing the product, make sure it is in perfect condition.
Do not install the product in a potentially explosive environment
and atmosphere: gas or inflammable fumes are a serious hazard
risk.
Before installing the motors, make all structural changes relating
to safety clearances and protection or segregation of all areas
where there is risk of being crushed, cut or dragged, and danger
areas in general.
Make sure the existing structure is up to standard in terms of
strength and stability. The motor manufacturer is not responsible
for failure to use Good Working Methods in building the frames to
be motorised or for any deformation occurring during use.
The safety devices (light barriers, safety edges, emergency stops,
etc.) must be installed taking into account: applicable laws and
directives, Good Working Methods, installation premises, system
operating logic and the forces developed by the motorised door or
gate.
The safety devices must protect any areas where the risk exists of
being crushed, cut or dragged, or where there are any other risks
generated by the motorised door or gate.
Apply hazard area notices required by applicable regulations.
Each installation must clearly show the identification data of the
motorised door or gate.
Before making power connections, make sure the plate
details correspond to those of the mains power supply.
Fit an omnipolar disconnection switch with a contact opening gap
of at least 3 mm.
Make sure an adequate residual current circuit breaker and
overcurrent cutout are fitted upstream of the electrical system.
When necessary, connect the motorised door or gate to a reliable
earth system made in accordance with applicable safety regulati-
ons.
During installation, maintenance and repair, interrupt the
power supply before opening the lid to access the electrical
parts.
To handle electronic parts, wear earthed antistatic
conductive bracelets.
The motor manufacturer declines all responsibility in the event of
component parts being fitted that are not compatible with the safe
and correct operation.
For repairs or replacements of products only original spare parts
must be used. The installer shall provide all information relating to
automatic, manual and emergency operation of the motorised door
or gate, and provide the user with operating instructions.

MACHINERY DIRECTIVE

Pursuant to Machine Directive (98/37/EC) the installer who mo
torises a door or gate has the same obligations as a machine
manufacturer and shall:
- prepare technical documentation containing the documents
indicated on Schedule V of the Machine Directive;
(The technical documentation shall be kept and placed at
the disposal of competent national authorities for at least ten
years starting on the date of manufacture of the motorised
door);
- draw up the EC declaration of conformity according to Sche
dule II-A of the Machine Directive;
- affix the CE mark on the motorised door pursuant to para.
1.7.3 of Schedule I of the Machine Directive.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Service class: 3 (minimum 30 cycles a day for 10 years or 60
cycles a day for 5 years)
Use: FREQUENT (for multi-family entrances or small condomi -
niums with frequent car or pedestrian transit)
- The operating performance specifications refer to the re -
c o m m e n d e d w e g i t h a ( b o t u
Use with maximum allowed weight could reduce the above
performance specifications.
- The service class, operating times and number of conse -
cutive cycles are merely approximate. These have been
statistically determined in average conditions of use and
are not certain for each single case. They refer to the pe -
riod when the product operates without the need for special
maintenance.
- Each automatic entrance features variable factors such as:
friction, balancing and environmental conditions that can
substantially change both the duration and operating quality
of the automatic entrance or part of its components (including
automatic system). It is up to the installer to adopt adequate
safety coefficients for each single installation.
