IMPORTANT REMARKS
READ THE FOLLOWING REMARKS CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING WITH THE INSTALLA-
TION. PAY PARTICULAR ATTENTION TO ALL THE PARAGRAPHS MARKED WITH THE SYMBOL
NOT READING THESE IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS COULD COMPROMISE THE CORRECT WORK-
ING ORDER OF THE SYSTEM AND CREATE DANGER SITUATIONS FOR THE USERS OF THE SYSTEM.
• These instructions are aimed at professionally qualified "installers of electrical
equipment" and must respect the local standards and regulations in force.
All materials used must be approved and must suit the environment in which
the installation is situated.
• All maintenance operations must be carried out by professionally qualified
technicians. Before carrying out any cleaning or maintenance operations
make sure the power is disconnected at the mains.
• This appliance must be used exclusively for the purpose for which it has
been made. "i.e. for the automation of hinged gates" with one or two gate
leaves, max. length 2 m, max. weight 150 kg.
• The unit may be fitted both to the right and to the left of the passageway.This
product and all its relative components has been designed and manufactured
by Cardin Elettronica who have verified that the product conforms in every
aspect to the safety standards in force.
Any non authorised modifications are to be considered improper dangerous
and the complete responsibility of the installer.
Caution! a mechanical stop buffer must be installed in the closing
position (pos. 1, fig. 5).
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
It is the responsibility of the installer to make sure that the following public safety
conditions are satisfied:
1) Ensure that the gate operating installation is far enough away from the main
road to eliminate possible traffic disruptions.
2) The motor must be installed on the inside of the property at a height between
1,5 and 1,8 m and not on the public side of the gate. The gates must not
open onto a public area.
3) The gate operator is designed for use on gates through which vehicles are
passing. Pedestrians should use a separate entrance.
4) The gate must be in full view when it is operating therefore controls must be
situated in a position where the operator can see the gate at all times.
5) At least two warning signs (similar to the example on the right) should be
placed, where they can be easily seen by the public, in
the area of the system of automatic operation. One inside
the property and one on the public side of the installation.
These signs must be indelible and not hidden by any
objects (such as tree branches, decorative fencing etc.).
6) Make sure that the end-user is aware that children and/
or pets must not be allowed to play within the area of a
gate installation.
If possible include this in the warning signs.
7) Whenever a fully open gate leaf comes within ≤ 500 mm of a fixed structure
the space must be protected by an anticrush buffer).
8) If you have any questions about the safety of the gate operating system, do
not install the operator. Contact your dealer for assistance.

USER INSTRUCTIONS
Suitable differential collection, environmental friendly treatment and disposal
contributes to avoiding negative effects on the ambient and consequently
health as well as favouring the recycling of materials. Illicitly disposing of this
product by the owner is punishable by law and will be dealt with according
to the laws and standards of the individual member nation.
During the opening/closing manoeuvre check for correct operation and activate the
emergency stop button in case of danger.
During blackouts the gate can be released and manually manoeuvred using the
supplied release key (see manual release pag. 7).
Periodically check the moving parts for wear and tear and grease if required using
lubricants which maintain their friction levels unaltered throughout time and are suit-
able for temperatures of -20 to +70°C. In case of failure or operational anomalies
switch off the power at the mains do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself.
Periodically check the correct operation of all safety devices (photoelectric cells etc.).
Eventual repair work must be carried out by specialised personnel using original spare
parts. The appliance is not suitable for continuous operation and must be adjusted
according to the model (see technical data on page 52).
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The minimum controls which may be installed are OPEN-STOP-CLOSE, these
controls must be installed in a location not accessible to children and outside the
opening range of the gate.
Before starting the installation of the system check that the structure which is
to be automated is in good working order and respects the local standards and
regulations in force.
To this end make sure that the gate is sufficiently rigid (if necessary reinforce the
structure) and that it pivots easily.
You are advised to grease all the moving parts using lubricants which maintain
unaltered friction characteristics over a period of time and are suitable for tem-
WARNING
peratures of -20 to +70°C.
AUTOMATIC OPENING
KEEP CLEAR
• Check the safety measures between the fixed and moving parts:
- a minimum space of 30 mm must always be left along the entire distance
between the gate and the support column measured throughout the entire open-
ing angle of the gate.
- make sure that the space between the bottom of the gate and the pavement
never exceeds 30 mm throughout the entire opening angle of the gate.
CHILDREN OR PETS MUST NOT
BE ALLOWED TO PLAY ON OR
• The surface of the gate must not feature openings which allow a person's hand
NEAR THE INSTALLATION
or foot to pass through.
• Check the exact positioning of the pivots, and their good working order (the upper
and lower hinges/pivots must be aligned on the same axis).
• Work out the run of the cables according to the command and control devices
fitted and make sure the system conforms to the local standard and regulations
in force (see installation example fig. 1 pag. 2).
• Check that the appliance is suitable for the size, weight and duty cycle of the
gate to which it is to be applied (see duty cycle on page 52)
ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE
The unit may be positioned either to the right or to the left of the passageway:
• Move the gate/s to the closed position.
• Choose the value "A" (fig. 4) according to the required opening angle and
work out (depending on the structural characteristics of the gate) at what
height the front bracket will be fitted to the gate. Once the position has been
established, fasten down the motor support plate using four M8 screws and
steel Ø14 rawlplugs. Make sure that the support bracket "D" (fig. 7) is in
square.
• Insert the operator arm "E" onto the motor drive shaft as indicated in fig. 8
and tighten down using the supplied grub screw "F".
• According to the assembly drawings (motor installed to the right fig. 9) and
(motor installed to the left fig.10) fix the geared motor to the base plate using
the two screws and self-locking nuts "G". The geared motor is factory set to
be installed to the right of the gate as seen from the inside.
