Preface
• During normal operation, this drive is always set to automatic closing
mode.
• This drive unit does not include internal lighting.
• This drive is equipped with a radio receiver that differs from that of the
marathon 800 SL + 1100 SL garage doors.
• The settings (e.g. warning, clearing and door open times) of the drive can
only be modified with a TorMinal device.
Safety instructions
General
• These installation and operating instructions must be read, understood,
and complied with, by the person who installs, operates, or maintains the
operator.
• Only specialised personnel should assemble, connect, and commission
the operator.
• Only install the operator to correctly aligned and weight-balanced doors.
An incorrectly aligned door can cause serious injury or damage to the
operator.
• The manufacturer cannot be made liable for any damage or disruptions
to operation occurring due to non-compliance with the Installation and
Operating Instructions.
• Ensure that these Installation and Operating Instructions remain in the
garage in an easily accessible location.
• Observe and comply with accident prevention directives and applicable
standards in the respective countries.
• Observe and comply with the directive on “Power-driven Windows,
Doors and Gates – BGR 232” issued by the Employers’ Liability
Insurance Association. (Applicable in Germany for the operator)
• Always disconnect (unplug) the operator from the mains supply before
performing any work on the operator.
• Use only manufacturer’s original replacement parts, accessories, and
mounting material.
Storage
• The operator may only be stored indoors, in a dry, enclosed environment
at an ambient temperature between -20 °C and +50 °C.
• The operator should be stored horizontally.

Operation
• The operator may only be activated if a hazard-free force tolerance has
been set, or if safety is ensured at all times through other safety fixtures.
The force tolerance must be set as low as possible in order to ensure
that the door’s closing force does not constitute a danger, see section
“Force setting”.
• Keep your hands clear of a moving door or any moving parts.
• Keep children, disabled persons and animals away from the door.
• Only drive into the garage when the door is completely open and the
signal light is green.
• There is a risk of persons getting trapped or cutting themselves in/on the
door system’s moving parts or the edges where it closes.
• If the door is not equipped with a slip door, or if there is no separate
access to the garage, then install an emergency release system
(emergency release lock or Bowden cable) that can be activated from
outside of the garage.
Radio remote control
• The radio remote control may only be used for equipment and systems
where defective remote operation of the transmitter or receiver does not
constitute a risk to people, animals or objects, or in cases where this risk
is eliminated by means of additional safety fixtures.
• The user must be made aware of the fact that the remote control of
equipment with accident risk potential may only occur, if at all, when the
equipment concerned is clearly visible.
• Radio remote control may only be used if door travel can be supervised,
and if there are no persons or objects in the travel range.
• Store the remote control transmitter so that there is no risk of it being
accidentally activated; e.g. by children or animals.
• The operator of this radio-controlled equipment is in no way protected
from interference from other telecommunications systems and facilities
(e.g. other radio-controlled equipment that is licensed to operate at the
same frequency range). Should serious interference be encountered,
then please contact your nearest telecommunications office with inter -
ference measuring facilities (radio signal localisation)!
• Do not use the remote control transmitter near locations or installations
that are susceptible to radio interference (such as airports or hospitals).
