Powered Boot Slamming

Post by TonyX5 » Tue May 20, 2014 5:45 pm

Hi

Not sure if this is a problem or not, the powered boot slams shut :bangin: can it be adjusted? or do they all do this.

Thanks
Tony

I wouldn't say mine slams but it's not like a soft close either. Seems to maintain a constant speed throughout and slower than if I did it manually.
