BFT Lever Release Key for ELI and SUB BT Motors

The BFT lever release key operates the manual release on ELI and SUB BT underground gate motors fitted with the matching ZZELI28-SCC release mechanism. It allows you to release the gate from the drive so you can move it manually when required.

Keep this metal lever as a replacement for a lost key or as a spare. In addition, its long shaft and bent end provide a practical grip when operating the release.

Key Features

• Manual release lever key for compatible BFT underground motors.

• For the matching ZZELI28-SCC release mechanism.

Applications

Use the BFT lever release key when you need to move a compatible automated gate manually, such as during a power failure.

It is suitable for BFT ELI and SUB BT installations with the correct lever-operated release. However, the motor name alone does not confirm compatibility, as different installations may use different release arrangements.

• BFT SUB BT underground gate motors with the matching release.

• BFT ZZELI28-SCC lever-operated release mechanism.

Before ordering, compare the pictured lever with your existing key and release fitting. If you are unsure, send us a photograph of the mechanism and motor label so we can help identify the correct part.

Safe Use and Maintenance

Before performing maintenance, disconnect the electrical supply and follow the instructions for your motor. When operating the manual release, keep the gate under control and ensure its movement area is clear.

Check and clean the mechanical components every six months. Where lubrication is required, use the manufacturer’s recommended lubricant and follow the maintenance schedule for your installation.

Finally, re-engage the release according to the motor instructions before restoring automatic operation.
