If the new key was not 
FULLY inserted during 
the re-keying procedure, 
then the cylinder has 
been misprogrammed to 
operate with the key only 
partially inserted.

Note: If you cannot find the 
depth at which the key was 
programmed, the padlock will 
remain unusable and you will 
need to use a new padlock. 

Slowly pull the key out of the 
cylinder while gently jiggling 
it to find the depth at which 
it was programmed. If 
successful, turn key 90°, 
and shackle will open. 

90°

Remove “B”.

Close shackle. The key will

been successfully re-keyed to 
the proper key depth.
