2. Safety Information
Important Safety Instructions:
- Installation and electrical connections must be performed by qualified personnel in accordance with local regulations and standards.
- Disconnect power before performing any installation, maintenance, or repair work.
- Ensure that the power supply matches the motor's specifications.

3.4 Setting End Points
The Selve SP 2/15 features mechanical end-point adjustment. These "point-to-point" limits are set manually on the motor head using the designated adjustment screws. Follow the instructions provided with the motor for precise adjustment of the upper and lower limits of your roller shutter or awning. This motor does not require an upper stop.
- Adjust the upper limit to prevent the shutter/awning from overwinding.
- Adjust the lower limit to ensure the shutter/awning closes completely without excessive tension.
4. Operating Instructions
Once installed and the end points are set, the Selve SP 2/15 motor operates via a connected switch or timer. The motor will move the roller shutter, awning, or screen between the set upper and lower limits.
- Use the UP button/setting to raise the shutter/awning.
- Use the DOWN button/setting to lower the shutter/awning.
- The motor will automatically stop at the pre-set mechanical end points.
5. Maintenance
The Selve SP 2/15 motor is designed for long-term, reliable operation with minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can help ensure optimal performance.
- Cleaning: Keep the motor area clean and free from dust and debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Inspection: Periodically check the mounting points and electrical connections for tightness and wear.
- Lubrication: The motor is factory-lubricated and generally does not require additional lubrication.
- If you notice any unusual noises or performance issues, consult the troubleshooting section or contact customer support.
6. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Selve SP 2/15 motor, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Motor does not respond. | No power supply, faulty switch, loose wiring. | Check power connection, test the switch, inspect wiring for damage. |
| Motor stops prematurely or overruns. | Incorrect end-point settings. | Re-adjust the mechanical end points on the motor head. |
| Motor makes unusual noise. | Obstruction in the shaft, motor malfunction. | Inspect the shaft for obstructions. If the noise persists, contact support. |
| Multiple motors connected in parallel are not working correctly. | Direct parallel connection without a disconnection relay. | Install a suitable disconnection relay for parallel operation. This is crucial for proper function and motor protection. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact Selve customer support or a qualified technician.
