Schwingtor - Normstahl

English
6 Putting into operation
6.1 Check the spring tension
The spring tension has been set in
the factory and does not usually
need to be altered. (Exception: Variant
doors without lining).
Check the tension by opening the
door about 1 metre and then letting
it fall. It is ideal if the door
stops in this position. The door
does not move up or down into its
end position until gentle pressure is
applied.
However, if the door moves out of
this position on its own either upwards
or downwards, adjust the
springs.
6.2 Adjust the spring tension
Caution!
The springs are under tension
and can spring out in the event
of incorrect use.
– Work with the springs carefully
and carry out this work only
when the door is open and
supported (springs not tensioned).
There is a risk of squashing
when carrying out work on the
springs.
– Wear gloves!
On Variant doors without linings
the springs are set at the factory for
a lining weight of 8 kg/m 2 . On
doors with a width of up to 3 m the
spring packets are not prestressed
and must be adjusted to the actual
lining weight.
Adjust the springs so that they are
the same on both sides
Caution!
Danger of injury by springs
jumping out.
– After setting the spring tension
refit the spring safety
sleeve.
Do not operate the up and over
door without a spring safety sleeve.
6.3 Install safety cover
Caution!
Risk of crush injuries on the lifting
mechanism.
– Do not operate the up and
over door without the safety
cover on the lifting mechanism.
Insert the expanding rivets in the
holes, then press in the rivet arbour
completely.
6.4 Locking/unlocking
Check the setting and adjust it if
necessary.
(A) Rod locking mechanism:
Adjust the locking mechanism so
that there is a gap (around 2 mm)
between the rod and the background.
(B) Cable locking mechanism
(Prominent, Rustico, Elegant):
Prestress the cable slightly. There
must be no gap on the handle.
Adjust the lock so that a gap
(approximately 2 mm) remains between
the lock and the lock box.
(C) Cable locking mechanism
(Variant, Prominent backbone):
Prestress the cable slightly. There
must be no gap on the handle.
Adjust the lock so that a gap
(approximately 2 mm) remains between
the lock and the lock box.
