Troubleshooting
Door does not open when pushed.
Check that the Tip-On unit and magnetic plate are correctly aligned and securely mounted. Ensure the trigger distance is appropriate. Verify compatibility with your hinges.
Door does not stay closed.
Ensure the magnetic plate has sufficient contact with the Tip-On piston. Adjust the position of the magnetic plate or the Tip-On unit for better engagement. Check if the hinges are providing adequate closing pressure.
Alignment is off after installation.
Utilize the +4mm / -1mm adjustment feature on the Tip-On unit to fine-tune the door's position until it is flush with adjacent doors or panels.
