5500 Series Power Operator - PUSH SIDE Installation
Prepare Frame and Door for PUSH Side Installation
Figure 1
Become familiar with operator components and fasteners. It is recommended that components remain in box
until installed. Verify there is minimum ceiling clearance for operator installation before proceeding. (Figure 1)
A. Prepare frame for operator.
1. Verify frame reveal width is 2-5/8"-6-3/4"
(67mm-171mm). (Figure 1)
NOTE: If frame reveal is less than 3" (76mm),
arm adjusting rod can be eld cut to 9-1/2"
(241mm) measured from centerline of
connecting link bushing assembly.
2. Determine if push or pull and if left hand or right
hand installation. (Figure 2)
NOTE: These steps are for PUSH side only.
3. Frame header MUST be at / without twists.
Backplate of operator can be used as reference.
NOTE: If frame is not at or is twisted, an
additional steel back plate or shimming is
required. Failure to mount unit properly can
result in improper function of operator.
4. Using detailed template on page 15, prepare four
(4) holes for 1/4-20 x 1/2" machine screws or
#14-10 x 2-1/2" wood screws. Blind rivet nut (by
others) is suggested for unreinforced hollow
metal or aluminum frames. (Figure 3)
5. For concealed mounted conduit (if applicable):
Prepare two (2) 7/8" (22mm) diameter holes
for conduit, for power input and for switch/
sensor wires.
NOTE: On new construction, these holes will
generally be drilled by frame supplier at their
shop or at time-of-install.

B. Adjust spring force.
NOTE:
• The amount of effort to manually open or
close a door is called force and is controlled
by the operator’s closer spring.
• Make necessary mechanical adjustments
described in “A” above.
• A closer set to ADA required 5 lbs opening
force may not be strong enough to close door
due to latching hardware, air pressure, or
frame issues.
1. Using 1/8" hex wrench, turn power adjustment
screw clockwise to increase door closing power.
(Figure 13)
NOTE: Door control is shipped set at midpoint
of power setting. Maximum closing power
can be achieved with 8 (360°) clockwise turns
of power adjustment screw.
Adjustments
A. Adjust mechanical closer features.
NOTE:
• Make necessary mechanical adjustments so
unit functions as a standard surface mounted
door closer before adjusting spring force,
applying power, adding accessories or making
electrical/programming adjustments.
• Refer to table for recommended minimum
opening/closing times per ANSI/BHMA
A156.19. (Figure 12)
• Use hex wrench to make adjustments.
Do not remove valves from closer.
Hydraulic oil will escape.
1. Closing Speed Controls (Figure 10)
• Valve “S” controls Sweep Range from
full open to 10°.
• Valve “L” controls Latch Range from
10° to closed.
2. Opening Cycle (Figure 11)
• Valve “BC” controls strength of cushioning in
Backcheck Range.
NOTE: Too much backcheck can affect
operation of unit pump, preventing full
open of door. This valve may require ne
tuning after all other adjustments have
been made.
