GENERAL SAFETY WARNINGS AND
PRECAUTIONS
1.1 - Warnings
This manual contains important information regarding safety. Before you start
installing the components, it is important that you read all the information
contained herein. Store this manual safely for future use. • Due to the dangers
which may arise during both the installation and use of the M-FAB, installation
must be carried out in full respect of the laws, provisions and rules currently
in force in order to ensure maximum safety. This chapter provides details of
general warnings. Other, more specific warnings are detailed in Chapters "2.1
Preliminary Checks" and "5 Testing and Commissioning".
According to the most recent European legislation, the production of
automatic doors or gates is governed by the provisions listed in Direc-
tive 98/37/CE (Machine Directive) and, more specifically, to provisions:
EN 12445, EN 12453 and EN 12635, which enable manufacturers to
declare the presumed conformity of the product.
Please access "www.niceforyou.com" for further information, and guidelines for
risk analysis and how to draw up the Technical Documentation.
• This manual has been especially written for use by qualified fitters. Except for
the enclosed specification "Instructions and Warnings for Users of the M-FAB
gearmotor" which is to be removed by the installer, none of the information
provided in this manual can be considered as being of interest to end users!
• Any use or operation of M-FAB which is not explicitly provided for in these
instructions is not permitted. Improper use may cause damage and personal
injury.
• Risk analysis must be carried out before starting installation, to include the
list of essential safety requisites provided for in Enclosure I of the Machine
Directive, indicating the relative solutions employed.
WARNING! – Risk analysis is one of the documents included in the
"Technical Documentation" for this automation.
• Check whether additional devices are needed to complete the automation
with M-FAB based on the specific application requirements and dangers
present. The following risks must be considered: impact, crushing, shearing,
dragging, etc. as well as other general dangers.
• Do not modify any components unless such action is specified in this man-
ual. Operations of this type are likely to lead to malfunctions. NICE disclaims
any liability for damage resulting from modified products.
• During installation and use, ensure that solid objects or liquids do not pen-
etrate inside the control unit or other open devices. If necessary, please
contact the NICE customer service department; the use of M-FAB in these
conditions can be dangerous.
• The automation system must not be used until it has been commissioned as
described in chapter 5: " Testing and commissioning".
• The packing materials of M-FAB must be disposed of in compliance with
local regulations.
• If a fault occurs that cannot be solved using the information provided in this
manual, refer to the NICE customer service department.
• In the event that any automatic switches are tripped or fuses blown, you
must identify the fault and eliminate it before resetting the switches or replac-
ing fuses.
• Before accessing the M-FAB connection terminals, disconnect all
power circuits. If the disconnection device is not identifiable, post the fol-
lowing sign on it: "WARNING: MAINTENANCE WORK IN PROGRESS".

DESCRIPTION OF THE PRODUCT
AND ENVISAGED USE
M-FAB is a gearmotor designed for the automation of single-leaf or double-leaf
gates. WARNING! – Any applications other than those described above
or under different conditions from those specified in this manual are
forbidden.
M-FAB operates with electric power. In the event of a power failure, the gear-
motor can be released using suitable keys in order to move the leaves manually.

INSTALLATION
3.1 - Preliminary Checks
Before proceeding with the installation, make sure that the structure is suitable
and that it complies with the regulations in force. In particular, you need to
make sure that: • there are no points of friction in the opening and closing travel
of the gate; • the gate is well balanced, i.e., once it is stopped in any position it
should not show a tendency to start moving again; • the gate opens and closes
smoothly and noiselessly; • the area selected for gearmotor installation enables
easy and safe manual manoeuvring; • check the integrity of the package; •
make sure that the mounting area is compatible with the dimensions of the
box (fig.1); • provide a closing strike and, if possible, also an opening strike.
WARNING! – Please keep in mind that M-FAB is designed to drive an
efficient, safe gate (with one or two leaves), and is not intended to
make up for defects resulting from improper installation or poor main-
tenance.
3.2 - Operating Limits
The shape and height of the gate (e.g. blind) and the weather conditions (e.g.
strong winds) may significantly reduce the values shown in the Graph A.
Note – If any of the gate leaves is wider than 2.5 metres, we recommend the
installation of an electric lock (PLA10 or PLA11).
3.3 - Mounting
3.3.1 - Overall Dimensions and Positioning of Foundation Box
1. Excavate the foundation hole based on the overall dimensions; provide
good drainage in order to prevent water stagnation.
2. Fasten the accessory for the opening limit switch to the box, carefully ob-
serving the directions and measurements shown in the fig. 6 to avoid incor-
rect installation.
3. Place the box inside the foundation hole; the stud must be aligned with the
axis of the hinge (fig. 2).
4. Provide a duct for the electrical cables and a drainage pipe.
5. Bury the foundation box in concrete, making sure it is set level.
6. Mount the control bracket on the box's stud along with the ball.
7. Set the gate leaf on the release lever and weld them securely.
8. Grease using a suitable grease nozzle.
3.3.2 - Installation of M-FAB Gearmotor
1. Remove the nuts and washers shown in the fig. 3.
2. Place the gearmotor inside the foundation box making sure it faces the cor-
rect direction.
3. Slide the bracket for the closing limit switch into the appropriate hole (fig. 6).
4. Secure the gearmotor using the grower washers and the 4 self-locking nuts
found in the accessories box.
5. Connect the gearmotor to the gate by means of the connecting lever (2)
(fig. 4).
