How can I adjust the plastic windows?

After a long work, the plastic windows require maintenance, but for this it is not always necessary to call a specialist. For example, in order to adjust the plastic windows, efforts are required to be insignificant, just as for lubrication. Just follow our advice.

Setting up the

mechanism To configure the PVC systems, you will need:

• a 4 mm hexagonal wrench;
• a set of shaped screwdrivers with attachments;
• oil for window lubrication( also suitable for machine oil);
• Phillips screwdriver;
• pliers.

Seasonal adjustment of the

If the integrity of the structure is disturbed, foreign sounds penetrate into the room from the street, or else you simply need to adjust the window. This is due to the fact that the sealant was distorted by the sun's rays or just lost its elasticity.

Opening the window on the side, you will see iron slots, inside which are oval-shaped cylinders - they are called eccentrics or trunnions. They are fastened to the window due to reciprocal eccentrics, screwed into it. When the handle is turned, this flap is closely adjacent to the frame. By scrolling the journals, you can adjust the jog force.

To adjust the plastic window, namely the closing of the leaf, it is necessary to turn the protruding part of the pin inward. And to loosen it - turn back, to the outside.

Tip! To prevent the valves from seizing, and our advice was carried out without difficulty, it is necessary to lubricate the mechanisms of plastic systems 2-3 times a year. For lubrication it is possible to purchase a special oil or conventional engine oil. Simply use a syringe to drip a small amount of oil into the working mechanism and work a little with the handle of the structure.

Depending on the type of system and its manufacturer, the eccentrics are set differently:

1. Cylinders that are in the end of the window can be rotated with the help of pliers, and then scrolled.
2. There are slots on the trunnion - their position can be adjusted using a flat screwdriver.
3. Passitizing will help turn the eccentric.

If the eccentric can not be adjusted, then do not persist. Excessive efforts can break the structure. To adjust the plastic windows, just set up the response cylinders. They are fixed with two bolts:

• It is necessary to loosen the hexagon of the clamping of bolts.
• In order to loosen the clamp, it is necessary to move the hitch towards the room.
• And to strengthen the fit - to move in the direction of the street.

Adjusting the accessories

After adjusting the clamp, you need to adjust the hinged side:

1. Remove the casing from the lower shed - it's plastic.
2. Use the two visible bolts and one bolt that is hidden in the canopy to adjust the leaf position.

Important! Adjustment is best done with a closed leaf, in order not to break the mechanism to learn how to adjust. To loosen the clamp, you must return the hexagon in a clockwise direction, and to turn the pressure loose turn it counterclockwise.

The so-called scissors fix the upper segment of the leaf. What needs to be set up in the plastic window:

1. Open the sash to find the right sashes.
2. Next on the front side you will find a lock and push the lever.
3. Without releasing it, turn the knob to the window mode.
4. The upper corner of the leaf extends from the groove and is fixed on the scissors and the lower canopy.
5. Locate the head and adjust the pressure of the upper segment of the leaf.
6. Rotating the screw head slightly, it is necessary to adjust the fitting force with the same eccentric setting.

Horizontal adjustment

The horizontal adjustment of the fittings is carried out in order to remove a small bevel of the leaf and to move the frame. For this, it is best to work with only two hinges that fit under the hexagon.

Important! The main thing is that the shift does not exceed 2 mm.

If you turn the key clockwise, the frame is pressed against the loop, and the lower part is raised. Similarly, if the key is rotated clockwise, the frame is moved away and the window is lowered.

Vertical adjustment of

In this case, the lower part of the loop is adjusted. Remove the clypeus with the grooves under the hex key and, turning clockwise, lift or, turning counterclockwise, lower it.

Important! Just as with horizontal adjustment, it is recommended to move no more than 2 mm.

Blowing in the frame

To solve this problem, you need to find a slot under the hexagon in the locking cylinders, and simply turn the eccentrics so that they press against the seal. It is necessary to repeat this procedure with all eccentrics, which are located on the frame.

Important! Make sure that the fit is even.
