Clockwise (CW) turns increase spring power (+).
Counter-clockwise (CCW) turns decrease spring power (-).
3101 Series closers can be adjusted to meet
ADA Barrier Free (BF) applications. Compliance with ADA/BF
requirements may result with door not fully closing and latching.
Check with local AHJ. Closer size may vary due to site conditions.

DECREASE
1. Use hex key provided.
2. Adjust SWEEP (closing max.°- 10°).
3. Adjust LATCH (closing 10°- 0°).
4. Adjust BACKCHECK resistance (opening 70°- max.°).
DO NOT COMPLETELY CLOSE VALVE
CONTROL ADJUSTMENTS:
CRITICAL: For closer longevity, BACKCHECK
must be adjusted to significantly slow opening
of door before arm bottoms on stop.
Closing time of 3-7 seconds is typical.
More time may be needed for ADA/BF access.
Clockwise (CW) = SLOWER.
Counter-clockwise (CCW) = FASTER.
