Dear Customer,
Thank you for placing your confidence in us
by purchasing a Hörmann product. Please
keep these instructions safe for later refe-
rence.
Please observe the following instructions.
They provide you with important information
on the safe installation and operation of your
garage door operator to ensure that this pro-
duct will give you pleasure for many years to
come.
In the interests of human safety it
is vital that the instructions
contained in this instruction manual
be followed in full.
Important Safety Instructions:
This garage door operator is designed for
the automatic operation of domestic spring-
balanced up-and-over doors and sectional
doors. Use in the commercial sector is not
permitted. In the event that the customer
carries out his own structural changes or
undertakes improper installation work or
arranges for same to be carried out/under-
taken, without Hörmann’s prior approval and
contrary to the manufacturer’s given guideli-
nes, then Hörmann KG shall be exempt
from its guarantee obligations and product
liability.
Any further processing must ensure that the
national regulations governing the operation
of electrical equipment are complied with.
Moreover, we shall accept no responsibility
for the inadvertent or negligent operation or
improper maintenance/servicing of the door,
the accessories and the weight counterba-
lance of the door.
Batteries and light bulbs are not covered by
the guarantee.
The design of the operator is not suitable
nor intended for the opening and closing of
heavy doors, i.e. doors that can no longer be
opened or closed manually or where this is
only possible with great difficulty. For this rea-
son, before installing the operator it is neces-
sary to check the door and make sure that it
can still be easily moved by hand.
To carry out this check, raise the door
approx. 1 metre and then let it go. The door
should stay in this position, neither moving
up nor down. However, if the door should
move in any of the two directions, there is a
risk that the compensating springs are incor-
rectly adjusted or defective. In this case
increased wear and malfunctioning of the
door system can be expected. Do not
attempt to change, re-adjust, repair or move
the compensating springs for the door’s
counterbalance nor their holders. The springs
are under great tension and can cause
serious injury. For your own safety, only allow
work on the door’s compensating springs to
be carried out by your garage door’s service
engineers.
