is also required to mount internal pusher support – Refer to g.3 and g.4 for further details. Internal pusher support
must be secured using 4 x M5 screws.
3c. In all variable-length S40 IR Adaptor types (or for any S40 IR Adaptor with an extension kit tted) the length of
the supplied M8 threaded rod can be cut to suit increased post thickness of up to a maximum of 350mm.
For any greater post thickness additional support may be required, contact your Fortress representative.
4. Loctite 243 threadlocker (or equivalent) must be used after assembly to secure M8 threaded rod of all variable-length

made to ensure the door or gate of any guarded area has sufcient support and stops to prevent the impact on
the Guard Interlocking Device.
9. The complete Guard Interlocking Device must be mounted in the correctly assembled condition so that the Escape
Release action is only possible from within the guarded area (danger zone).
Testing
The complete guard installation should be tested prior to use.
Place the complete Guard Interlocking Device into its locked state so that the Safety Circuits of the accompanying Safety
Switch (S40 LOK or S40 Stop) are closed. Operate the Escape Release function by depressing the internal Push Button of
the S40 IR Adaptor. The Guard Device will now be in its unlocked state - check that the assembled Actuator can be removed
from the assembled Head and that the Safety Circuits of the accompanying Safety Switch (S40 LOK or S40 Stop) are now
open. Restoration of the protection is necessary before normal operation can be resumed.
To reset the Guard Device and return it to its locked state – rst close the guarded area by re-inserting the Actuator into the
Head unit, then reset the S40 IR Adaptor as per the following instructions.
• For Key-Reset versions (S40R2, S40R3 and S40R4), insert the Reset Key and rotate it 90 degrees clockwise before
pushing the Reset Push Button on the external lid assembly.
• For Keyless-Push-Reset versions (S40RX, S40RY and S40RZ), push the Reset Push Button on the external lid assembly.
• For internal Pull-Reset versions (S40R7, S40R8 and S40R9), pull on the internal Push Button fully.
After Reset, check that the Guard Device has returned to its locked state and that Safety Circuits of the accompanying Safety
Switch (S40 LOK or S40 Stop) are re-closed.
Warning: This device does not contain the Machine Reset or Restart facility after an escape or auxiliary release of
the guard locking. Addition measures are required to achieve the reset of the machine system.
Service and Inspection
Regular inspection of the following is necessary to ensure trouble-free, lasting operation:
• Correct operating function
• Secure mounting of components
• Debris and wear
• WD40 every 10,000 operations.
There are no user serviceable parts in this product. If damage or wear is found with an assembly, please contact your local
Fortress stockist. The complete interlock must be replaced after 1 million switching operations.
