G-3
Turn the outside thumbturn to the right
(clockwise) until it stops
(See Figure 7-3)
; the
latch should retract fully. If the latch does not
retract, turn the thumbturn to the left coun-
terclockwise until it stops, release, and repeat
Step G-2.
Note:
From the outside, the only way to retract
the latch is to turn the thumbturn clockwise.
G-4
Release the outside thumbturn; the latch will
return to its initial completely extended posi-
tion.
G-5
Turn the inside thumbturn to the left (coun-
terclockwise) until it stops; the latch will
retract. Release it and the latch will return to
its initial completely extended position
(See Figure 7-4)
.
Note:
The inside thumbturn may be turned to
the right (clockwise) to keep the latch retracted.
Turn the thumbturn to the left to bring the latch
back to its normal extended position.
G-6
If the latch does not retract completely,
unscrew the four screws (
F
)
(See Figure 7-4
and 7-5)
and remove the latch. Loosen the two thru-bolts (
D
) on the
reinforcing plate
(See Figure 7-5)
. Move the plate up or down, tighten
the thru-bolts (
D
), and remount the latch with the four screws (
F
).
Check the latch’s retraction again and repeat this operation as needed,
until the latch completely retracts.
If the latch will not extend and retract freely after performing the above
operation, loosen the two thru-bolts (
H
) of the combination change assem-
bly (
G
)
(See Figure 7-5)
, move the lock up or down, tighten the thru-bolts
(
H
), and try to retract the latch again.
H. VERIFYING THE COMBINATION CHANGE
ASSEMBLY
H-1
Insert the tip of a Phillips-head screwdriver into the central piece of the
combination change assembly
(See Figure 8-1)
.
H-2
Turn the screwdriver to the right (clockwise) until it stops. DO NOT FORCE.
H-3
Remove the screwdriver; the central piece
should automatically return to its initial posi-
tion.
H-4
If the central piece jams and does not return
to its initial position, loosen the two thru-
bolts (
H
)
(See Figure 8-1)
and push the
combination change assembly (
A
) upward.
Tighten the thru-bolts, and repeat Steps H-1
to H-3.
I. INSTALLING THE STRIKE
I-1 Outward opening door - mount flat strike
a.
Place the strike (

) on the door jamb (
B
) in line
with the center line of lock
(See Figure 9-1)
.
b.
Trace the outline of the strike on the jamb.
Remove the strike.
c.
Chisel out the jamb so that the strike will be
flush with the surface of the jamb.
d.
Place the strike back into the cutout and trace
