Installation Sequence
- Using the template at the top of page 2, see figure 2, select the angle of opening desired. Locate and mark for 4 holes on the door for the closer body and 2 holes on the frame for the arm shoe.
- Prepare the door and frame for fasteners using the information from the "Preparation for Fasteners" chart, figure 3 on page 2.
- 3 Install closer body to door as shown.
- Disassemble secondary arm and shoe assembly from the main arm by removing elbow screw.
- 5 Fasten secondary arm and shoe assembly to frame face as shown.
Following the main arm indexing illustrations in figure 4, place main arm onto the closer pinion shaft. Install and tighten main arm screw with a ½" wrench.
7 Close door. Adjust secondary arm assembly so that the main arm is perpendicular to face of door. Re-assemble secondary arm to main arm. Tighten screw securely.
8 Closing Tension - Place wrench (packed with door closer) on ratchet as shown. Swing wrench away from hinge to wind spring between 3 to 10 notches, engage dog in ratchet. Increase or decrease spring power to suit conditions.
Left Hand Door
Caution - Underwound spring (less than 3 notches) or overwound spring (more than 10 notches) will cause spring breakage.
Right Hand Door
Regular Arm
Closer Adjustment -
Closing Speed . . . Controlled by the regulating valve on the end of the closer closest to the hinge.
Sweep Speed... Controls the door's speed in the sweep speed range, see illustration.
Full 360° clockwise turns decrease the sweep speed. Full 360° counter-clockwise turns increase the sweep speed.
Latch Speed... Controls the door's speed in the latch speed range, see illustration. A partial turn, up to a maximum of turn (180°) in either direction determines the latch speed.
Backcheck... Controlled by the regulating valve on the end of the closer farthest from the hinge.
Backcheck cushions or slows the door opening speed near the end of the opening cycle.
Full 360° clockwise turns increases resistance to opening. Full 360° counter-clockwise turns decreases resistance to opening.
Note:
If backcheck is encountered extremely early in the opening cycle, rotate the valve ½ turn (180°) to eliminate early opening resistance.
Caution . . . To avoid damage to closer, never fully close the backcheck regulating valve.
Parallel Arm
Closer Adjustment -
Closing Speed... Controlled by the regulating valve on the end of the closer farthest from the hinge.
Sweep Speed ... Controls the door's speed in the sweep speed range, see illustration.
Full 360° clockwise turns decrease the sweep speed. Full 360° counter-clockwise turns increase the sweep speed.
Latch Speed . . . Controls the door's speed in the latch speed range, see illustration. A partial turn, up to a maximum of ½ turn (180°) in either direction determines the latch speed.
Backcheck... Controlled by the regulating valve on the end of the closer closest to the hinge.
Backcheck cushions or slows the door opening speed near the end of the opening cycle.
Full 360° clockwise turns increases resistance to opening. Full 360° counter-clockwise turns decreases resistance to opening.
Note:
If backcheck is encountered extremely early in the opening cycle, rotate the valve ½ turn (180°) to eliminate early opening resistance.
Caution... To avoid damage to closer, never fully close the backcheck regulating valve.
To Reverse Closer Hand
- Remove main arm screw, arm assembly, ratchet, and top cover.
- 2 Lift out spring using screwdriver wedged between coils. (See figure 8.)
- 3 Reverse spring and re-assemble to required hand (See figure 8).
- A Rotate shaft to required hand (See figure 8).
- 5 Replace cover and insert ratchet, lining up slot with linner hook on spring.

Installation Sequence
- 1 Using the template at the top of page 5, see figure 9, select the angle of opening desired. Locate and mark for 4 holes on the door for either the closer body or #1988 drop plate and 4 holes on the frame for #289 soffit plate.
- Prepare the door and frame for fasteners using the information from the "Preparation for Fasteners" chart, figure 10, page 5.
- Install closer body to door as shown. If a backplate is used, mount it first, then fasten the closer to the backplate.
- 4 Disassemble secondary arm and soffit plate from the main arm by removing elbow screw.
- 5 Fasten secondary arm and soffit plate assembly to frame soffit with 4 mounting screws.
Following the main arm indexing illustrations in figure 11, place main arm onto the closer pinion shaft. Install and tighten main arm screw with a ½" wrench.
Close door. Adjust secondary arm so that the main arm is approximately 2° from parallel with face of door. Re-assemble secondary arm to main arm. Tighten elbow screw securely.
8 Closing Tension - Place wrench (packed with door closer) on ratchet as shown. Swing wrench toward hinge to wind spring between 3 to 10 notches, engage dog in ratchet. Increase or decrease spring power to suit conditions.
