INSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO DEVICE INSTALLATION:
1- Before installing a panic device, make sure the door swings correctly and is unobstructed. The door design must conform with the installation requirements
for this device, for example, the eccentric hinges and door latch bolts must allow leaves to open simultaneously, the gap between leaves must be according to
specification, doorway must be free be of any obstruction, etc.
NOTE: The panic exit device manufactured to the above mentioned standards ensure a high safety level for the people and increased building security provided it
is installed on doors and frames in good working order.
2- Before installing a panic device on a fire/smoke door, see door certification to make sure the door has been subjected to fire tests and is a fire/smoke rated
product.
3- Remove any door seal or gasket which may prevent panic device from working efficiently.
4- In double doors with overlap where panic devices are installed on both leaves, please make sure that each leaf opens when its panic device is pressed and
that both leaves open correctly when both panic devices are pressed simultaneously. For this application, a device for increased opening may be required to
activate main door leaf.
5- If the lengths of panic exit devices are different, please adjust length for this application.
6- Grade 2 panic exit devices (standard exit) must be used when the space for door opening is narrow or door cannot open more than 90°.
7- Doors and frames must be firm enough so as to hinder any distortion greater than 13/64"(5 mm) in any position while in use.
8- If a device is installed on a glass panel door, make sure the glass is tempered or laminated.
9- If panic device is installed on an emergency exit door made of wood, metal or glass without any frame, you may need to use a different fitting system. For a
safer fitting, use male or female through bolts.
10- The material of the leaf door where device is installed must be resistant to a tensile force greater than 1.5 KN applied to each screw.
11- Panic exit devices are not designed for double acting traffic doors.
12- Follow installation instructions carefully. Installer must hand over Installation and Maintenance Instructions to the user.
13- The length of push bar must be its maximum possible length, which cannot be lower than 60% of the door width.
14- Install latch bolts and strike plates in a way to ensure a safe locking. It is important that the latch bolt projection -when in retraction- does not prevent door
swinging freely.
15- If the device is installed on double leaf doors with overlap and automatic closing device, we recommend the use of a door coordinator under EN 1158 to
ensure a reliable sequential closing. This recommendation is particularly important in case of fire and/or smoke doors.
16- For the door lock in closed position, do not use devices other than those specified in the European standard EN 1125 and IRAM 3687. This standard does not
rule out the installation of automatic closing systems.
17- If a door closing system is used to return door to closed position, be careful not to block escape exit route for children, elder and disabled people.
18- Any lock plate, receptacle or protection plate for panic devices must be installed in compliance with EN 1125 and IRAM 3687.
19- We recommend the use of a sign which reads 'push bar to open' or a pictogram placed on the inside face of the door above the push bar or on the bar itself

if there is enough room for pictogram. The pictogram surface must be not smaller than 12.4 in
(8000 mm
) and pictures must be white in a green background;
the arrow must indicate the door operation when installed.

MANITENANCE INSTRUCTIONS:
In order to comply with EN 1125 and IRAM 3687, it is important to carry out routine maintenance works on a monthly basis or at least every 20 000 opening
cycles.
a) Check and operate the panic exit device to ensure that all parts are in good working order.
b) Ensure that the lock(s) is/are unobstructed.
c) Make sure that the contact surfaces between the latch bolt and strike plate are lubricated with lithium grease at a use temperature suitable for the use
conditions (for example: Special grease GR 2/3 DILMAX or of a similar kind). Check panic device and its accessories, if suitable.
d)Check no other locking devices have been added to the door since panic device was first installed.
e)At regular intervals check all the system parts are genuine and certificate-compliant.
f) The fit of the door must be regularly monitored and with the use of a force meter measure and record opening and closing forces to release panic exit device.
Check opening and closing forces have not greatly changed since they were first recorded when installing device.
