END USER OPERATING GUIDE - SAFETY INFORMATIONPLEASE READTHIS USER GUIDE CAREFULLY BEFOREUSINGYOUR SYSTEM FORTHE FIRSTTIME

PLEASE KEEPTHIS PACK IN A SAFE PLACE FOR FUTURE USE

General Operating Safety:

When correctly installed in accordance with the installation instructions and in accordance with the currentelectrical and mechanical regulations in force at the time of the installation, this automation system will offer ahigh degree of safety.

The following rules must be adhered to in order to prevent accidents during operation:

• Do not try to pass through the gate(s) when they are moving. Wait until the gate(s")are fully open beforeentering/exiting.

• Do not stop unnecessarily between the gates.

• Do not allow children to play near the gates.

• Keep all remote control operating devices out of the reach of children.

DThe gate(s) receive a start command from the hand held transmitter (or other operationdevice) and open to the fully open position. Once open the gates remain in the openposition until further start signal is received. Once a further start signal is received, thegate(s) will close.

• Do not operate the gate(s) by remote control unless the gate(s) is in view.

• Do not attempt to impede the movement of the gate(s) during operation.

• Report any signs of malfunction immediately to the Installation/Maintenance Company.

• In the case of any malfunction, isolate the power supply, release any electric/automatic lock, open the gatesmanually and call the Installation/Maintenance Company. (See manual release section)

• Do not attempt to modify the gate(s) or automation system.

• Ensure that your Automatic Gates(s) are inspected/serviced at 6 to 12 month intervals (dependent on duty cycle)by your Installation/Maintenance Company.

• If you are in any doubt regarding the operation/safety of your gate(s), please call yourInstallation/Maintenance Company.

General Product Description and Instructions for Manual Operation:

BFT motors are controlled by a microprocessor control unit within a weatherproof enclosure usually adjacent tothe gate(s). There are two possible modes of operation:

Semi Automatic:

DThe gate(s) receive a start command from the hand held transmitter (or other operationdevice) and open to the fully open position. The gate(s) will then close automaticallyafter a pre-set time (variable between 0-120 seconds - this is set by the installer).

Fully Automatic:

In addition, the motors are fitted with anti-crush safety devices.

Photo electric safety photocells will be fitted at approximately 550m from floor level either side of the gate(s) toprevent the gate(s) Closing whilst obstructed. Safety loops may also be cut in to the road surface to detectvehicles obstructing the travel of the g.ates.

AL OPERATION OFYOURAUTOMATED GATES

ajority of gate operators are self locking. In the event of a powerfailure or breakdown it will be necessary to release the lockingmechanism before opening the gates manually. Please read thiswhole page before attempting to manually operate your gates andsee the following page for release mechanism diagrams.

IN ORDER TO MANUALLY OPERATE YOUR GATES:

BFT Electro-Hydraulic gate operators: ORO, LUX, SUB.Hydraulic gate operators are released by rotating a triangular brass valve fully anti-clockwise.This process releases a hydraulic seal and lets the oil run through a by pass valve.Once the valve has been released the gate should be manually opened slowly (the same speed as the operatorwould open the gate) allowing the oil to pass from one chamber to another.

8FT Hydraulic operators and their release mechanisms are detailed on the following page.

BFT Electro-Mechanical gate operatorsMechanical gate operators are released with either a triangular key:PHOBOS, VIRGO, DEIMOS, Ell 250Or a traditionally cut, flat blade key: IGEA, ICARO, URANO.

Various mechanisms are employed to allow the manual operation of gates dependent on the type of gate operator.In all cases the keyed release mechanism should be kept clean and lubricated in order that it will release smoothlyin case of power failure.

8FT Mechanical motors and their release mechanisms are detailed on the following page.

BFT Non Locking gate operatorsSome gate operators are 'Non-locking'. In these cases the gate/s will be fitted with an additional electronic lockwhich will be either mechanical or magnetic.

A mechanical lock will have been supplied with a key to release it manually.A magnetic lock will release when the power is isolated.

TO OPERATE YOUR GATE MANUALLY:

Power Isolation The power isolator for your automation system is located at:

1. Isolate the power supply to the gate system.-== 2. Release any additional lock fitted to the gate using the relevant key.

3. Manually release the gate operator using the key provided (see over page).~ 4. Carefully open the gate at the same speed the operator would move it.

(Failure to observe point 4 could damage the operator and cause oil loss)

TO RE-INSTATE AUTOMATIC OPERATION:1. Check the power-supply is still isolated.2. Re-engage the operator using the key and release mechanism (see over page).3. Re-instate the power supply at the isolator.4. Run the system to ensure it is working correctly.

If you are unsure about any of the information contained in this leaflet please call theinstallation company for further information.
