FAAC S.p.A. recommends that you always comply
with the EN 12453 standard and in particular that you
adopt the safety criteria and devices indicated, without
exception, including the dead-man function.
This manual also contains general information and
guidelines, which are purely illustrative and not exhau-

the Manufacturer of the Machine in all respects with
regard to carrying out the risk analysis and drafting the
instructions for use and maintenance of the machine. It
should be clearly understood that FAAC S.p.A. accepts
no liability for the reliability and/ or completeness of
the above instructions. As such, the manufacturer of
the machine must carry out all the activities required
by the Machinery Directive and the corresponding
harmonised standards on the basis of the actual condi-
tion of the locations and structures where the product
E844 3PH will be installed, prior to commissioning the
machine. These activities include the analysis of all the
risks associated with the machine and subsequent
implementation of all safety measures intended to
fulfil the essential safety requirements.
