The hydraulic regulation of the 4600CS series has been
adjusted prior to shipment. To meet ANSI A156.19 table 1
requirements, open door to 90° and determine the closing time.
Make sure the spring power and closing speed are correct. If
adjustments are necessary, use 3/32 allen wrench provided
and refer to door diagram shown in
Fig. 9

LOCATING CAUTION / AUTOMATIC DOOR DECAL
1. Locate one decal on each side of door, near latch area to meet
ANSI A156.19-2007 code requirements. Decal must be located
at 50” (+/- 12”) from the floor to the center line of the sign. The
decal location must be visible without interference from door
trim or auxiliary door hardware.
2. Clean the 6” x 6” area where decal is to be placed. Apply decal
by removing the backing and “rolling” it onto door. This will help
prevent air bubbles from being trapped under decal.
