Frequently Asked Questions - Special 315 MARANTEC

What types of garage doors are compatible with the Special 315 release?

The Special 315 release is compatible with garage doors for industrial sectional doors, as well as flap-up and non-flap-up overhead doors, and standard sectional doors (with specific adapters).

How to install the Special 315 exterior release on a sectional door?

Attach the lock bracket to the left latch of the lock. Connect the sheath to the bracket using the adjusting screw. Pass the cable through the cable clamp and tighten. Attach the sheath to the center hinges and panel stiffener using the supplied rings.

How to shorten the sheath if it is too long?

Determine the necessary length with the door open. Remove the metal cap, take out the cable, cut the sheath, replace the cap and reinsert the cable. Lock the cable clamp leaving 50 mm of cable protruding. Tip: wrap adhesive tape around the cutting point to prevent fraying.

How to adjust the mechanical play of the release?

Use the adjusting screw located on the lock bracket or on the drive carriage. Adjust so that the system has no mechanical play. Verify that the bracket is firmly against the lock housing.

What to do if the supplied interior handle cannot be used?

If the supplied handle is not compatible, you can drill the original handle according to the instructions. Drill a hole of diameter 5.5 mm at 48 mm from the left edge of the lock housing for the cable passage.

How to check that the door is properly disconnected from the operator?

Observe the pictograms under the guide carriage. If the sliding part is above the 'open lock' arrow, the door is disconnected. If it is above the 'closed lock' arrow, the door is connected to the operator.

How to perform manual release from outside?

First unlock the lock. Pull on the cord (depending on the rail type) until the sliding part is in front of the stop. Pull the ball in the sliding part, release and fix the sleeve. After release, check that the door opens electrically with the motor.

What are the reference numbers for the different lengths of the Special 315?

The references are: Art. No. 46 007 for 5 m, 46 008 for 6 m, 46 009 for 7 m and 46 010 for 8 m.

Is it necessary to drill additional holes for installation?

On some door models, the lock latch is not pre-drilled. In this case, drill a hole of diameter 5.5 mm at 48 mm from the left edge of the lock housing. For non-flap-up overhead doors, a hole of 3.5 mm at 60 mm above the handle axis may be required.

How to maintain the release system?

No specific maintenance is required. It is recommended to regularly check the proper operation of the system, especially the return of the carriage to initial position and the absence of play. Ensure that the red unlocking pin resets manually if necessary.
