This window opener is designed for opening roof and
side windows in greenhouses. It can also be used for
opening cold frames as long as it can be installed in
them as set out in this manual.
Follow the various steps and illustrations to install the
window opener.

Technical data:

Maximum window opening approximately
Maximum opening at
30°C depending on adjustment and load.
Suitable for greenhouse vents or cold frame lights
weighing up to 7 kg.

Maintenance:

Lubricate all movable parts with a light oil after fitting,
each spring and as required during the summer.
Apply petroleum jelly or grease to the cylinder thread
occasionally.

Winter-storage:

It is recommended that your Opener – or at least the
cylinder – is removed from your greenhouse or cold
frame for the winter. Store it in a dry place and do
not forget to lubricate particularly the piston rod
before remounting in the spring. Check that the
piston rod moves smoothly.
Notes:
Your automatic vent control is not suitable for use
where temperatures will exceed 50°C.
Ensure that your greenhouse window or cold frame
light is able to open and is not obstructed otherwise
damage could occur.

Fitting instructions:
Check that your greenhouse window or cold frame
light opens freely and is not obstructed.
Greenhouses: Windows in roof and sides:
1. Loosely fit a clamp (11) to the window bracket
(10) using two of the screws supplied. See fig. 3.
On wooden greenhouses the brackets can be
45 cm.
screwed directly on to the woodwork. See fig. 2.
2. Choose the most suitable pair of holes and
loosely fit the other clamp to the frame bracket
(9). Ensure that the upper edge of the frame
bracket is as close to the edge of the window
frame as possible. See examples in fig. 2.
3. Now measure the distance your window will
open.
3.1 If the window will open at least 42 cm:
Push the piston rod (3) through the cylinder
housing (2) into the clutch T (4). The hole in the
piston rod should be placed in line with hole »a«
in the clutch T. The hair pin (5) should then be
fitted through the holes, see fig. 4.
3.2 If the window will only open between 30 and
42 cm:
Follow the same procedure as described above
except remove the plastic cap from the clutch
T(4) and use hole »b« and fit the stop pin (6) on
to the arm (7). See fig. 5.
IMPORTANT:
4. Do not fit the stop pin (6) unless the hair pin
(5) is placed in hole »b«.
5. Fit the frame bracket to the window sill, see fig.
6.
6. Fit the window bracket to the window frame just
above the frame bracket. The window must be
in the closed position.
Open the window sufficiently to allow you to
screw the cylinder into the cylinder housing.
Screw in the cylinder until the thread is equal
length on both sides of the housing and then
release the window.
Cold frames:
Turn the frame bracket (9) 90° as shown in fig. 7.
The opener should be fitted in the middle of the front
side and light of the cold frame.
