• Determine hand of door from illustration on page 1. Closers are handed. Hand of closer must match hand of door.
• Using template dimensions on page 2, 3 or 4, locate & prepare holes and cutouts in frame and door.

Door:

Prepare door for track. Prepare (4) holes for 1/4-20 machine or #14 wood screws.

Frame:

Prepare the frame for mounting closer. Drill and tap (4) holes for 1/4-20 machine or #14 wood screws.

Note: Generally on new construction hardware cutouts are made by suppliers at their shop.

• Mount closer to frame.

Position spring tube away from hinge or pivot and mounting plate flush with frame rabbet. Secure with 1/4-20 x 5/8 or #14 x 1-1/4 phillip drive mounting screws.

Install arm on closer pinion (see illustration below). Position arm counterbore facing down with index number next to pinion index mark. Install onto pinion. Number "4" - Left hand

Closer Adjustment

CAUTION:

Do not back valves out of closer or a leak will result.

• Closer Controls accessible through mounting plate for closer adustment: Use 1/8" (3mm.) hex-key for valve adjustments. Use standard screwdriver for power adjustment.
• Power Adjustment permits increasing door closing force. Controlled by slotted screw marked "P.A."
• Closing Speed controlled by valves marked "SWEEP" and "LATCH". Attention: Adjust closing speed time to between 4 to 7 seconds from 90°. Use of the door by handicapped, elderly, or small children may require greater closing time.
• Delayed Action option permits door to creep from fully open to about 70°. Creeping time controlled by valve markedDELAY".
• Backcheck cushions or slows the opening of a door that is forced to travel faster than conditions require. Backcheck controlled by valves marked "BC POSITION" (open for backcheck start at a greater door opening angle) and "BC" (for adjusting backcheck intensity). Never close "BC" valve completely.
• Optional Enhanced Backcheck provides adjustable backcheck intensity beginning at approximately 15° of the door opening cycle. Backcheck positioning valve is omitted when this feature is provided.
