REGULATING BACKCHECK

THE INTENSITY OF BACKCHECK ACTION IS REGULATED BY VALVE SHOWN. TURN CLOCKWISE TO INCREASE — OR COUNTERCLOCKWISE TO DECREASE CHECKING. CAUTION: SET VALVE FOR A SLIGHT CUSHIONING EFFECT. IT IS DAMAGING TO THE CLOSER IF THE CHECKING ACTION IS TOO ABRUPT. BACKCHECK SHOULD NEVER BE USED IN LIEU OF A DOOR STOP

FOR MODELS HAVING "DELAYED ACTION"

"DELAYED ACTION" IS OBTAINED BY OPENING DOOR INTO THE DELAYING RANGE, AS SHOWN. UPON RELEASE. THE DOOR TRAVELS SLOWLY THRU THE DELAYING RANGE THEN CONTINUES AT REGULAR SPEED IN THE NORMAL RELEASE RANGE UNTIL CLOSED. THE NORMAL RELEASE RANGE IS APPROXIMATELY 70°
