PRELIMINARY INSTALLATION WORK
Before proceeding with installation, check the condition of the product
components, suitability of the selected model and conditions of the
intended installation environment.
IMPORTANT – The gearmotor
that is not fully efficient and safe
caused by poor installation or insufficient maintenance of the
door itself.
3.1 – CHECKING SUITABILITY OF THE ENVIRONMENT
AND THE DOOR TO BE AUTOMATED
• In the case of automating a projecting up-and-over door, ensure that
movement does not obstruct public roads or pavements.
• Ensure that the mechanical structure of the door is suitable for automa-
tion and complies with local standards.
• Check stability of the mechanical structure of the door, ensuring that
there is no risk of guides coming out of their seats.
• Move the door manually to open and close, checking that movement
has the same degree of friction throughout all points of travel (no increase
in friction must occur).
• Ensure that the door is correctly balanced: in other words, if left station-
ary (manually) it must not move from any position.
• Ensure that the space around the automation enables safe and easy
manual release.

• Ensure that the selected surfaces for installation of the various devices
are solid and guarantee a stable fixture.
• Ensure that all devices to be installed are in a sheltered location and pro-
tected against the risk of accidental impact.
• Ensure that the selected surfaces for fixing the photocells are flat and
enable correct alignment between photocells.
3.2 – CHECKING PRODUCT APPLICATION LIMITS
To ascertain suitability of the product with respect to the specific features
of the door and area to be automated, the following checks should be
performed as well as a check for compliance of the technical data in this
paragraph and the chapter "Product technical specifications".
• Ensure that the dimensions and weight of the door are within the follow-
ing limits of use:
model GDX and GDXP
– Sectional doors: maximum width 350 cm; maximum height 212 cm;
maximum movement force 500 N.
– Projecting up-and-over doors: maximum width 350 cm; maximum
height 260 cm; maximum movement force 500 N.
– Non-projecting up-and-over doors: maximum width 350 cm; maxi-
mum height 212 cm; maximum movement force 500 N.
model GDXR and GDXPR
– Sectional doors: maximum width 350 cm; maximum height 240 cm;
maximum movement force 500 N.
– Projecting up-and-over doors: maximum width 350 cm; maximum
height 280 cm; maximum movement force 500 N.
– Non-projecting up-and-over doors: maximum width 350 cm; maxi-
mum height 220 cm; maximum movement force 500 N.
