Controlled Products Systems Group MT212R - Manual (Page 2)

DO’S AND DON’TS
Do - Be careful in handling the product. Caution should be taken to prevent damage when removing it from the pack
ing cases. All Miller Sensing Edges are inspected before packing to insure against puncture and damage before
leaving our plant.
Do - Always unpack and spread Miller Sensing Edge before installation in a warm, undercover area. This will allow
the Miller Sensing Edge to assume its proper shape and dimension.
Do - Periodically check the Miller Sensing Edge (see below).
Don’t - Paint the sensing edge, EVER. Paint solvents may damage the sensing edge.
Don’t - Compress the sensing edge more than 1/4” maximum when the door is in its fully closed position.
Don’t- Expect your sensing edge to be indestructible. It’s tough and will resist wear, but it can be cut. Cuts may result
in damage to the sensing edge.
Don’t- Ever apply air pressure to the air valve fitting. Don’t- Ever apply more than 24 Volts AC or DC to the sensing edge.
ATTENTION INSTALLER
It is strongly recommended that you advise your customer to observe good maintenance practices by including a check
on the entire length of sensing edge in their equipment maintenance manuals. All Sensing edges should be checked
periodically, at least once per month, for any signs of damage, cut, loss of sensitivity or water damage. When the sens-
ing edge is compressed 1/2” along any portion of its length starting 2” in from the ends, it will send an electrical signal
to controls. If this does not occur, contact the equipment installer immediately for assistance. If the installer is not avail-
able, contact the Miller Edge Customer Service Department at (610) 869-4422 for assistance.
ATTENTION END USERS
It is strongly recommended that you observe good maintenance practices by including a check of the entire length of
any sensing edge at least once per month for any signs of damage, cuts, loss of sensitivity or water damage. Check the
operation of the edge by compressing it approximately 1/2” along any portion of its length, starting 2” in from the ends,
it should cause the closing door/gate/fixture to stop and/or open. If this does not occur, contact a qualified door/gate/fix-
ture installer immediately for assistance. If a qualified installer is not available, contact the Miller Edge Customer Serv-
ice Department for assistance.
WARNING: The door/gate/fixture to which the sensing edge is attached may be a very large and heavy moving object.
It may have springs, pulleys, cable and other items that are under extreme tension. If disturbed or damaged, serious per-
sonal injury or death could result.
ALWAYS STAND CLEAR OF DOOR/GATE/FIXTURE WHILE IT IS IN MOTION.
If you think there may be damaged components, do not attempt to adjust them. Contact your qualified installer or Miller
Edge, Inc. for servicing.
KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS ON WALL IN CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE DOOR/GATE/FIXTURE.
