I’m glad you stated that this could be because of broken components or a fluid leak. I better reach out to a professional to repair it.

The door has been slamming a lot lately at my place of work, so I think we could really benefit from getting an exit device. Now that I know how they work, I definitely feel more prepared to suggest that idea!

Sean,
There should be a couple of small screws or hex screws, at least two of them, just tighten them, turn Clockwise. If that does not do the trick, then the oil has probably leaked out. If the oil is gone there is not much you can do, except replace the closer.
