- The indicator window displays valve status: O for Open, S for Shut.
- Ensure the O-ring is correctly placed in the groove before fastening the actuator cover to prevent water and dust ingress.
- Adjust the Open travel stop by turning counterclockwise (CCW) to withdraw the screw by about 1/8”.
- Signal the actuator to the open position and verify the valve's position. Adjust as needed: CCW for more open, clockwise (CW) for more closed.
- Repeat for the Shut travel stop.
- Open and Closed cams are attached to the transmission shaft, turning CCW to open until the Open cam triggers the Open switch, and CW to close until the Closed cam triggers the Shut switch.
- Loosen the cam set screw with an allen key to adjust the cam freely.
- Adjust the Open cam: CCW to open less, CW to open more.
- Adjust the Closed cam: CCW to close more, CW to close less.
- Retighten the cam set screw and test the actuator for proper tripping at the set position.
- Ensure power is off before manual operation or maintenance.
- If abnormal friction is felt, avoid excessive force to prevent damage.
- Contact Max-Air for malfunctions.
- Use specified fuse replacements as listed in the manual.
- Avoid dismounting the electric actuator and valve unless necessary, as limit switches will need recalibration.
- Allow a three-minute rest before restarting.

Differences between AMD and BMD: BMD units should be used for higher torques and faster operating speeds. AMD units provide power usage efficiencies and should be used when power savings are a concern. Signal Input Signal Output Note - When using current signal, external resistant is under 500 Ω.

Installation Notes 1. The indicator window shows the status of the valve [O=OPEN, S=SHUT] 2. When replacing the actuator cover, ensure that the O-ring is in the groove correctly before fastening to prevent ingress of water and dust. Travel Stop Adjustment Manual Operation Shut off power to actuator before manual operation or maintenance. Do not remove cover unless power is shutoff, and ensure that the cover is securely back on before powering up. 1. Before adjusting the Open travel stop, turn the Open stop CCW to withdraw the screw about 1/8”. In manual mode, if abnormal friction or resistance...
