Jackscrew Override
Disengage power supply and vent air from actuator.
Operate the handwheel to drive the actuator into the desired position. Valve
position can be verified by checking the actuator position indicator. For models
006 through 270, the jackscrew must be returned to the fully retracted position
before actuator can resume normal operation. Back the jackscrew out until it
stops. Air will leak from the jackscrew unless it has been fully retracted against
its internal seal.
Retract the jackscrew override completely by rotating counter clockwise.
Loosen the lock nut and turn the brass adjusting screw to the desired position.
The handwheel will rotate with the adjusting screw. Never make stroke
adjustments by turning the handwheel only.
Tighten lock nut.
