Replace the power cable and find and rectify
the fault.
Turn the valve fully in a clockwise direction (E9 pos.1).
Screw the pressure setting valve clockwise
(par.5 - E8 pos.2)
Check the operator mounting, as described in
this manual.
Check the measure of the piston stroke.
Detach the operator from its front mounting
and make a few opening and closing movements;
then re-fit to the front mounting.
Check for oil leaks; if any, address to a Repair Centre.
