General Information

The 80 Prefix switch allows the initial hold open point to be adjustable from 20 degrees through full door opening.
This adjustment is done using a cam on the spindle opposite from where the arm mounts.
(Not available with 9- units.)

Adjustment Instructions

A. IMPORTANT

1. CAUTION: DISCONNECT ALL INPUT POWER BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION TO PREVENT ELECTRICAL SHOCK AND

EQUIPMENT DAMAGE.

2. INSTALLER MUST BE A TRAINED, EXPERIENCED SERVICE PERSON.
3. ALL WIRING MUST COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES, ORDINANCES AND REGULATIONS.

B. Installation

1. Mount closer/holder per instruction sheet provided.
2. Locate switch and cam and loosen both set screws in cam.
3. Open door to desired holding position and hold open with door stop. Rotate cam until switch roller is on lower section of cam and

approximately 1/32" from bottom of incline. Cam should be positioned so when door closes, roller on switch will ride up incline
of cam operating the switch. Tighten one set screw in cam with hex key and pull door closed.

4. Pull door open to desired hold open position. When switch roller travels down to bottom of incline, door closer will function as a

standard multi-point holder. Depending on door size and closer fall back, cam may need to be adjusted so that the switch roller is
positioned properly for desired door operation. Tighten both set screws firmly.
