ADJUSTING THE CLOSING SPEED AND FINAL ‘SNAP’ ACTION (108 ONLY)

CAUTION: Sensitive adjustment, rotate MAX 1/4 turn at a time.
V = Closing Speed S = Final Snap Action

Turn nozzles clockwise to decrease speed & counterclockwise
to increase speed.

IMPORTANT:

Use dimple to determine how far nozzle has turned.

DO NOT

turn adjustment nozzles more than 3 complete rotations.

DO NOT

unscrew nozzle past the surface of the body.

CAUTION: DO NOT

remove adjustment nozzles or disassemble

hinge. Doing so voids warranty.

If using a 57+57 or 108+108 combination, each closer

must have equal closing speed at all times.

MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS

• A

Gate stop must be installed when using SF models. Gate must not be allowed to open past 90

˚

.

Doind so voids warranty.

• Never use more than two (2) SureClose hinge/closers on any one gate.

• Remove all other types of hinges and self-closing devices.

• Ensure the gate does not swing through the line of the fence. Use a “gate stop” or a latch (with striker)

to prevent this.

• All steel mounting brackets (gate and post) should be painted or powder coated. Spray painting is recommended.

• The anodized aluminum mounting brackets do not need finishing, but they may be painted or powder coated.
• DO NOT powder coat the hinge/closer, but they may be painted.

• DO NOT turn the adjustment nozzles more than two (2) full rotations.

• DO NOT unscrew nozzle past the surface of the body.

• DO NOT remove the adjustment nozzles or disassemble these hinges at any time. Doing so voids warranty.

• Ensure the hinges are kept free of sand, ice and other debris that could impair effective operation.

CAUTION: Overheating any SureClose product during welding may cause failure and will void warranty.

To ensure threads on mounting bracket are not deformed, weld one surface at a time and alternate
between top and bottom hinge. Do not weld in restricted area. Finish with appropriate corrosion
protection, avoiding thread contamination.
