Clockwise (CW) turns increase spring power (+).
Counter-clockwise (CCW) turns decrease spring power (-).
5300/5500 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.

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.
DO NOT REMOVE VALVES
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
5. Adjust (optional) DELAYED ACTION (closing max.°- 70°);
Provides additional hesitation for access (ADA/BF) through
door.
