1. Set CLOSE Mechanical Stop Screws (piece #58) (Hex Head Cap Screw) by loosening Locking Nut (piece #59)
(Hex Head Nut).
2. Using the Handwheel, turn the valve to the CLOSE position. Make sure the valve is fully seated before setting
the mechanical stop.
3. Rotate Mechanical Stop Screw (piece #58) in the CW direction until contact with the Stop Pin (piece #28)
occurs.
4. Back-off Mechanical Stop Screw (CCW direction) approximately 1¹₂ turns.
5. Retighten Locking Nut.
6. Manually operate the actuator through the close limit to assure setting is correct.
NOTE: The Mechanical Stops are intended to protect the equipment from overtravel if a Limit Switch fails. The
valve should not torque-out against the Mechanical Stop Screw during normal OPEN/CLOSE cycles.
