6. Operating Instructions and Adjustment
The RYOBI S-122PC1 features three adjustment valves to control the door's closing cycle. These valves are typically located on the side of the closer body.
6.1 Adjusting Closing Speed (Valve 1 & 2)
- Valve 1 (Initial Closing Speed): Controls the speed of the door from its fully open position until approximately 15 degrees from closed.
- Valve 2 (Latching Speed / Second Speed): Controls the speed of the door for the final 15 degrees of closing, ensuring the door latches securely without slamming.
To adjust: Turn the respective valve screw clockwise to decrease speed (slower closing) or counter-clockwise to increase speed (faster closing). Make small adjustments (quarter turns) and test the door's closing action after each adjustment.
6.2 Adjusting Latching Action (Valve 3)
- Valve 3 (Backcheck / Latching Action): This valve controls the resistance the door encounters when opened forcefully beyond a certain point (backcheck) and can also influence the final latching force.
To adjust: Turn the valve screw clockwise to increase backcheck resistance or latching force, and counter-clockwise to decrease it. Adjust carefully to prevent the door from slamming or failing to latch.
Importante: Do not unscrew the valves completely, as this can lead to fluid leakage and product damage.
7. Manutenzione
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the lifespan of your RYOBI S-122PC1 Door Closer.
- Pulizia: Wipe the door closer body and arm assembly with a soft, damp panno per rimuovere polvere e sporco. Evitare detergenti abrasivi o solventi.
- Ispezione: Periodically check all mounting screws for tightness. Retighten if necessary. Inspect the arm assembly for any signs of wear or damage.
- Lubrificazione: The internal mechanism is factory-lubricated and sealed. No additional lubrication is required.
- Controllo della funzionalità: Test the door's closing and latching action regularly. Readjust the valves if the closing speed or latching force changes over time.
