3. Setup and Installation
The Dieffematic SBLHL unlocking device is designed for integration with Cardin HL series automatic systems. Specific installation steps may vary depending on the exact model of the automatic system. Refer to the automatic system's manual for detailed integration instructions.
- Preparation: Ensure the automatic system is completely powered down and secured against accidental activation.
- Mounting: Mount the SBLHL device securely to the designated location on the automatic system, typically near the motor or gearbox, following the automatic system's manufacturer guidelines. Use appropriate fasteners to ensure stability.
- Connection: Connect the SBLHL device to the automatic system's manual release mechanism. This usually involves engaging a lever or shaft. Ensure the connection is firm and allows for smooth engagement and disengagement.

4. Operating Instructions
The SBLHL unlocking device provides a manual override for your automatic system. Use it only when necessary, such as during a power outage or system malfunction.
- Accessing the Lock: Locate the keyhole on the Dieffematic SBLHL device.
- Unlocking: Insert your personalized key into the keyhole. Turn the key clockwise (or counter-clockwise, depending on the specific installation) to engage the unlocking mechanism. You should feel a distinct click or resistance as the mechanism disengages the automatic system's motor.
- Manual Operation: Once unlocked, the automatic gate or barrier can be moved manually.
- Relocking: To re-engage the automatic system, turn the key back to its original position and remove it. Ensure the automatic system is fully re-engaged and locked before restoring power or attempting automatic operation.
Important: Always remove the key after use to prevent unauthorized access or accidental unlocking.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable operation of your Dieffematic SBLHL unlocking device.
- Cleaning: Periodically clean the exterior of the device with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.
- Lubrication: Every 6-12 months, apply a small amount of graphite lubricant or a silicone-based spray lubricant to the keyhole and internal mechanism. Do not use oil-based lubricants as they can attract dirt.
- Functionality Check: Test the unlocking mechanism regularly (e.g., quarterly) to ensure it operates smoothly. If you notice any stiffness or difficulty, apply lubricant.
- Key Care: Keep your personalized keys clean and free from damage. Do not use bent or damaged keys, as this can damage the lock mechanism.
