redUCing opening Width:
a. the opening width can be obstructed at a width of 32 cm (appr.
12½ inch) by inserting the big hairpin (part no 6) into hole C on the
arm called l. the small hairpin mUst alWaYs connect the piston
rod with clutch t in hole B.
B. By assembling the piston rod and clutch t in hole B a small
reduction of the opening width is gained, at the same time as the
start-opening temperature is delayed. if the thread of the cylinder
has been entered just a few rounds into the cylinder housing – and
the locking is made by using hole B – then the opener begins to
open at appr. 28°C.

8. turn the sill bracket (part no. 9) 90° around like shown on Fig.7
9. the opener should be itted as close to the edge as possible and in
the middle of both the front and the lid.
Ways of itting the opener :
a: FrameWorks having plastiC Covering on side and lid :
For itting onto a plastic panel you will have to drill the necessary
holes in the plastic yourself. Use the supplied Clamp (part no.11) as
a “nut” for the supplied screws. place the Clamp on the outside of
the plastic panel (see Fig.8 top right and left).
B: alUminiUm FrameWork With glass Covering on side and
lid :
Follow step 2 as described for greenhouses – see Fig.8. if it is not
possible for the window bracket or the sill bracket to reach close
enough to the edges of the Framework then use the enclosed extra
bracket (part 13). You may have to make a second similar bracket
yourself too –see the illustration on Fig.8: down to the left and
center.
C: Wooden FrameWorks :
on wooden frames the brackets can be itted directly onto the
wood work – see Fig.8: at the bottom - using screws especially
meant for wood ixing.
make your choice above – and then continue as follows :
10. do as described at step 3 for greenhouses
11. disconnect the sill bracket (part no 9) from the arms of the opener
(part no.7) – and it the bracket (part 10) to the front panel as close
to the edge as possible.
12. Fit the window bracket close to the edge of the lid in the same way.
13. Clip the arms onto the sill bracket as shown on Fig.9 – and make
sure that the lid can be both opened and fully closed. if not, you will
have to adjust the position of the brackets.
14. open the lid just enough to allow the thread on the cylinder to
catch the thread inside the cylinder housing (part no 3). now wind
the cylinder on until equally much of the cylinders thread is visible
on either side of the cylinder housing – see Fig.5.
For adjustments : see below.
adjUstments:
it is best to adjust the opener when the temperature inside the
greenhouse or cold frame is constant, as it will take some time before
the opener has reacted completely to a change in the temperature.
if you want the opener to begin opening a
t a diferent temperature,
then turn the black cylinder :
Turning clockwise = an earlier start / higher opening
Counter-clockwise = achieving a later start / lower opening
One twist of the cylinder equals about 0.5°C / 1°F. You should beware of
that the temperature inside the greenhouse can vary greatly, including
vary at the various windows.
