Troubleshooting
Door closes too quickly or too slowly.
Adjust the two regulating valves on the door closer. Turn clockwise to slow down the closing speed, and counter-clockwise to speed it up. Fine-tune until desired speed is achieved.
Door does not latch completely.
Adjust the latching action mechanism. This typically involves fine-tuning the final few degrees of closing. Refer to the installation manual for specific instructions on adjusting the latch speed.

Ensure the installation is correct and the door is properly aligned. Check for any obstructions or binding in the door hinges. Verify that the closing speed is not set too low, making it hard to push open.
