Instruccions d'ús i ajustos
The DC6000 Series door closer features adjustable closing speed and latching speed, as well as a spring adjustment mechanism to control closing force.
Adjusting Closing Speed:
- Locate the two captured adjustment valves on the closer body. These typically control the main closing sweep and the latching speed.
- Turn the valve clockwise to decrease speed (slower closing) and counter-clockwise to increase speed (faster closing). Make small adjustments (quarter turns) and test the door's operation after each adjustment.
- The first valve usually controls the main sweep from the open position to approximately 15 degrees from closed. The second valve controls the latching speed for the final 15 degrees of closing.
Adjusting Spring Power:
- The spring adjustment mechanism allows for varying the closing force, which is crucial for ADA compliance and door size/weight.
- Use the appropriate tool (e.g., an Allen wrench) to turn the spring adjustment screw. Turning clockwise increases closing force; counter-clockwise decreases it.
- Ensure the door closes reliably and smoothly without excessive force. For ADA compliance, the opening force should not exceed specified limits.
