Adjustments
Confirm closer spring size prior to making any
closing speed adjustments.

parallel arm applications.
Backcheck position will advance approximately 15°.
Check delayed action (DEL) function if supplied.

Maximum opening angle is 180º.
Door should close in 3 to 6 seconds from 90º.
Do not close valves completely.
Ball bearing hinges and pivots should always be
used.
