Operating your actuator
WARNING:
OPERATING BY HAND
Where actuators are supplied with the optional hand-
wheel, note that under no circumstances should any
additional lever device such as a wheel key or wrench
be applied to the hand-wheel in order to develop more
force when closing or opening the valve, this may cause
damage to the valve and/or actuator. It may also cause
the valve to become stuck in the seated or back seated
position.
Where actuators are supplied with optional hand wheel device
the valve can be operated manually independent of the
power supply.
Move the Selector Knob to the STOP position before
attempting to operate the actuator manually.
Push and turn simultaneously to manually operate the
actuator.
WARNING:
