WARNING!
important safety instructions for people:
READ CAREFULLY!

Premise

  • Employ this product only for the use for which it was expressly made. Any other use is dangerous. CAME S.p.A. is not liable for any damage caused by improper, wrongful, and unreasonable use
  • Keep these warnings together with the installation and operation manuals that come with the operator.

Before installing
(checking what’s there: if your evaluation is negative, do not proceed before having complied with all safety requirements)

  • Check that the automated parts are in good mechanical order, that the operator is level and aligned, and that it opens and closes properly. Make sure you have suitable mechanical stops
  • If the operator is to be installed at a height of over 2.5 m from the ground or other access levels, make sure you have any necessary protections and/or warnings in place
  • If any pedestrian openings are fitted into the operator, there must also be a system to block their opening while they are moving
  • Make sure that the opening automated door or gate cannot entrap people against the fixed parts of the operator
  • Do not install the operator upside down or onto elements that could yield and bend. If necessary, add suitable reinforcements to the anchoring points
  • Do not install door or gate leaves on tilted surfaces
  • Make sure any sprinkler systems cannot wet the operator from the ground up
  • Make sure the temperature range shown on the product literature is suitable to the climate where it will be installed
  • Follow all instructions as improper installation may result in serious bodily injury
  • It is important to follow these instructions for the safety of people. Keep these instructions.

Installing

  • Suitably section off and demarcate the entire installation site to prevent unauthorized persons from entering the area, especially minors and children
  • Be careful when handling operators that weigh over 20 kg. If need be, use proper safety hoisting equipment
  • All opening commands (that is, buttons, key switches, magnetic readers, and so on) must be installed at least 1.85 m from the perimeter of the gate’s working area, or where they cannot be reached from outside the gate. Also, any direct commands buttons, touch panels, and so on) must be installed at least 1.5 m from the ground and must not be reachable by unauthorized persons
  • All maintained action commands must be fitted in places from which the moving gate leaves and transit and driving areas are visible
  • Apply, if missing, a permanent sign showing the position of the release  device
  • Before delivering to the users, make sure the system is EN 12453 standard compliant (regarding impact forces), and also make sure the system has been properly adjusted and that any safety, protection, and manual release devices are working properly
  • Apply Warning Signs (such as the gate’s plate) where necessary and in a visible place Special user instructions and recommendations
  • Keep gate operation areas clean and free of any obstructions. Make sure that the photocells are free of any overgrown vegetation and that the operator’s area of operation is free of any obstructions
  • Do not allow children to play with fixed commands, or to loiter in the gate’s maneuvering area. Keep any remote control transmitters or any other command device away from children, to prevent the operator from being accidentally activated.
  • The apparatus may be used by children of eight years and above and by physically, mentally, and sensorially challenged people, or even ones without any experience, provided he happens under close supervision or once they have been properly instructed to use the apparatus safely and about the potential hazards involved. Children must not play with the apparatus. Cleaning and maintenance by users must not be done by children unless properly supervised
  • Frequently check the system for any malfunctions or signs of wear and tear or damage to the moving structures, to the component parts, all anchoring points, including cables, and any accessible connections. Keep any hinges, moving joints and slide rails properly lubricated
  • Perform functional checks on the photocells and sensitive safety edges, every six months. To check whether the photocells are working, wave n object in front of them while the gate is closing; if the operator inverts its direction of travel or suddenly stops, the photocells are working properly. This is the only maintenance operation to do with the power on. Constantly clean the photocells’ glass co-vers using a slightly water-moistened cloth; do not use any solvents or other chemical products that may ruin the devices
  • If repairs or modifi cations are required to the system, release the operator and do not use it until safety conditions have been restored
  • Cut off the power supply before releasing the operator for manual openings and before any other operation, to prevent potentially hazardous situations. Read the instructions
  • If the power supply cable is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or authorized technical assistance service, or in any case, by similarly qualifi ed persons, to prevent any risk
  • It is FORBIDDEN for users to perform any OPERATIONS THAT ARE NOT EXPRESSLY REQUIRED OF THEM AND WHICH ARE NOT LISTED in the manuals. For any repairs, modifi cations, and adjustments and for extraordinary maintenance, CALL TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
  • Log the job and check into the periodic maintenance log.

Additional special recommendations for everyone

  • Keep away from hinges and mechanical moving parts
  • Do not enter the operator’s area of operation when it is moving
  • Do not counter the operator’s movement as this could result in dangerous situations
  • Always pay special attention to any dangerous points, which have to be labeled with specifi c pictograms and/or black and yellow stripes
  • While using a selector switch or a command in maintained actions, keep checking that there are no persons within the operating range of any moving parts until the command is released
  • The gate may move at any time and without warning
  • Always cut off the power supply before performing any maintenance or cleaning.
