Manual Operation (Declutch)
CAUTION
Product Damage Hazard.
Do not use manual declutch without supporting 
the load.
Support actuator load independently immediately 
before and during use of manual declutch lever.
Manual declutch capability is available on some actuators. 
Use the manual declutch lever to manually adjust the actuator 
setting. Fig. 5 shows the location of the manual declutch lever. 
To operate, push the lever in the direction of the arrow on the 
lever cover.

Installation
After determining the direction of the shaft rotation (cw or 
ccw), install the device. For valve linkage mounting, refer to 
the instructions shipped with the linkage. For damper 
mounting, proceed as follows:
1. Place the actuator onto the damper shaft.
CAUTION
Equipment Damage Hazard.
Improper range stop selection can damage 
light-duty dampers.
Be sure to select the proper range stop.
2. If the angle of the damper opening is either 45° or 60°, 
close the actuator using the manual declutch:
a. Disengage the hub using the declutch lever; see 
Manual Operation (Declutch) section.
b. Rotate the hub until the actuator gear train passes 
the proper 45° or 60° setting. (Do not insert the pin 
until after the actuator passes this point.)
c. Release the declutch lever.
NOTE: Dampers with 90° stroke do not require the 
range stop pin.
3. Insert the range stop pin into the appropriate (cw or 
ccw) 45° or 60° slot. The range stop pin clips into its 
final position only after the pin passes through both 
actuator plates (see Fig. 7). The range stop pin should 
snap into position and not be removable manually 
(see Fig. 8).
IMPORTANT
Do not fully tighten the mounting screw; the actuator 
must be allowed to float.
4. With the actuator placed in its final position, fix the 
mounting tab in position with a 1/4 in. screw or pin. See 
Fig. 6.
5. Position the damper in the open position and securely 
tighten the Allen screws into the damper shaft.
