2) GENERAL OUTLINE
Low-voltage operator (24V ) suitable for residential use. Designed for
swinggateshavingsmall-sizedpillars.The operating arm,withitsspecial
antishearing shape, allows the leaves to be manoeuvred even when the
operator is positioned well away from their fulcrum. The irreversible
electromechanical gearmotor keeps the gate locked in the closing and
opening positions.
Thereleaselever,ttedtotheoutsideofeachoperator,allowsthemanual
manoeuvre to be carried out very easily.
ATTENTION! The VIRGO model controller is not equipped with mecha-
nical torque adjustment. It is compulsory to use a control panel of the
same manufacturer, in compliance with the basic safety requirements
of directives 2006/95/CEE, 2004/108/CEE, 2006/42/CEE equipped with
appropriate electric adjusment of the torque.
Before carrying out the manual manoeuvre make sure that this operation
will not create a dangerous situations.
Check in the relevant literature that the thermal eld in the working area
is suitable for the operator.
Make sure that the movement of the door does not cause entrapment
risks between the movable and xed parts of the door.
If swing gates with built-in doors are used, the motor must not run when
the door is left open.
WARNING! The operator must be installed by a qualied technician as
special safety components are used for every specic site and therefore
safety depends on installation.
