F-10 Remove the key. The lock will look as
shown at right.
F-11 Gently check the rotation of the lever
handle. It should easily rotate approxi-
mately 45
º
.
Troubleshooting: If you have assembled the
lever and housing with the key in the wrong
position, the key will get stuck. To remove the
key, turn it so that it is in the vertical position
and insert a small flat screwdriver into the
hole under the lever handle to push the lever
catch in (f). Remove key. If it is still stuck,
turn the key 90
º
clockwise to the horizontal
position and push the Lever Catch in again
with the small screwdriver. Remove key.
Troubleshooting: Right-Handed Lock: Turn the lever handle clockwise without
forcing it. If it stops at approximately 15
º
, it was not assembled correctly. Do not
try to force it to turn - this will damage the inside mechanism of the lock.
Release the lever handle. Insert the small screwdriver into the small hole on the
underside of the lever handle and push in the lever catch.
Re-do steps in section D
Left-Handed Lock: Turn the lever handle counter-clockwise without forcing. The
drive hub should not rotate when the lever handle is turned. If it does, it was not
assembled correctly. Release the lever handle. Insert the small screwdriver into
the small hole on the underside of the lever handle and push in the lever catch.

G. TESTING THE OPERATION OF THE OUTSIDE LEVER
G-1
Verify that the lever has been correctly attached to the housing:
a. Remove key.
b. Insert a small flat screwdriver into the hole on the underside of the lever
handle and push in the lever catch.
c. Pull on the lever.
You should not be able to remove the lever. If the lever comes off of the
housing, the lock is not assembled correctly. Return to steps in section
D and repeat this verification process.

Test the Movement of the Lever
(without the key in cylinder)
a. Turn the lever (h) clockwise for a Right-
Handed lock or counter-clockwise for a
Left-Handed lock
b. Release the lever slowly. It should return
freely to its horizontal position.
c. If the lever doesn’t easily return to its origi-
nal position, the spring washer (d) is prob-
ably too tight. Use a rubber mallet to tap
the lever carefully against the housing to
reduce the tension of the spring washer
(d), until the lever moves freely back to its
horizontal position when turned slowly.
H. TESTING THE MECHANICAL KEY OVERRIDE
Important: The Key Override itself does not retract the latch or deadbolt. Do not
use too much force when turning the key as this may damage the unit. To retract
the latch, turn the key clockwise until it stops, release the key and turn the lever.
Note: The lever must stay in the horizontal position when turning the key (do
not try to turn the key while turning the lever) or the override mechanism will
not work.

Without using the key, turn the lever
clockwise for Right-Handed locks or
counter-clockwise for Left-Handed
locks. The inside drive hub should
not rotate when the lever turns.
