Rollac Shutter Manual & Warranty

General Safety Precautions

• Do not push the shutter upward manually — this may cause malfunction.
• Ensure the operating path is clear of people, pets, and obstacles before use.
• Never climb on, hang from, or add weight to the shutter.
• Keep hands, fingers, and objects away from guide rails and moving parts.
• Limit access to controls. Keep switches and remotes out of reach of children.
• Automatic controls (e.g., timers, sensors) should be turned off during winter or when away from home.
• Share these safety instructions with future property owners if the building is sold.

Operating in Different Conditions

• High Winds: Keep shutters fully closed or fully open. Keep windows closed.
• Cold Weather: Do not operate if the curtain is frozen. Wait until defrosted.
• Hot Weather: Allow ventilation by leaving the curtain slightly open or using light slit mode if equipped.
• Debris Build-Up: After long periods of non-use or storms, inspect and clear debris from housing and guide rails before operating.

Recommended Use

• Operate shutters daily if possible, with a typical cycle being one full open and close.
• At minimum, operate once per month to maintain functionality.
• Never force the shutter if resistance is felt. Stop and investigate or call your dealer.

Control Methods

• Limit Switches: Motors automatically stop at preset limits. Adjustments require a qualified dealer.
• Thermal Protection: Motors may temporarily shut off if overheated from repeated use. Wait 25–30 minutes before retrying.
• Switch Types:
• Maintained Switch: Moves automatically until stopped or limit is reached.
• Momentary Switch: Moves only while button is pressed
• Remote Control: Use “Up,” “Down,” and “Stop” buttons for positioning.
• Emergency Override: Use manual crank handle only in emergencies. Do not force if resistance is felt.

Special Operation Notes

• Manual Tape or Crank Systems:
• Lower or raise gently, especially in the final third of travel.
• Keep crank handle at ~45° angle during operation.
• Do not force the crank if resistance occurs.

• Spring-Loaded Shutters:
• Unlock with key or slide locks before raising.
• Avoid slamming against the housing.
• Lock securely when shutter is fully closed

Maintenance & Care

• Clean surfaces with mild detergent and water. Do not pressure wash.
• Keep guide rails free of dirt and lubricate annually with a dry PTFE spray (e.g., Alumaslick).
• Do not use grease, WD40, or oil on the motor or curtain.
• Inspect at least once a year for wear, fastening security, and operability.
• Only authorized technicians should adjust electrical or motor components.



Important: If you encounter unusual resistance, damage, or malfunction — stop operation immediately and contact your authorized dealer.
