Arrows on closer mounting plate point upward.
A carry bar should be installed to insure that the active

Installation instructions are included with carry bar.
Follow included template to properly prepare door and

Know the swing of the door which is being installed prior to
installation.
Make sure door efficiently operates prior to installing
closer.
Verify closer spring size prior to installation.

GSR/EMF T 1I
(Active door & inactive door holds open together)
The GSR/EMF T I incorporates an electric hold open mechanism in
the inactive leaf. The coordinator mechanism tied to the inactive
leaf in turn holds the active leaf at whatever degree of opening it is
placed. Both doors will close in sequence (inactive first) from any
point upon signal from the fire alarm system or when electrical
current is interrupted.
GSR/EMF T 1A (Active door hold open)
The GSR/EMF T A incorporates an electrical hold open
mechanism in the active leaf. This eliminates the need to hold the
inactive leaf in the open position to initiate hold open of the active
leaf. This version permits the active leaf to be held open at a
preselected point when the inactive leaf is in the closed position.
The door will close from any point upon signal from the fire alarm
system or when electrical current is interrupted.
GSR/EMF T 2 (Active door hold open only or inactive &
active hold open together)
The GSR/EMF T  incorporates an electric hold open mechanism in
both door leaves. This enables both leaves to be held open when
the inactive door is placed in the preselected hold open position
and also enables the active door to be held open independently
when the inactive door is in the closed position. Both doors will
close in sequence (inactive first) from any point upon signal from
the fire alarm system or when electrical current is interrupted.
