The ProSeries
®
Interchangeable Core locks employ a construction
technology similar to that used in the Rekeyables. It also allows for a
uniform assembly and disassembly technique. Below is the step by step
procedure for disassembling this version of padlock (refer to diagram at
right for parts and orientation). The only exceptions to this procedure
will be the Rekeyables and Door Hardware versions of the lock.
• Use the control key to remove the IC cylinder, C. (If key is unavailable
you will have to use another method).
• Remove the ring retainer.
• Remove the steel retainer plate.
• Remove the throw member.
• Remove the extension, E.
• Remove the locking ball bearings, B, and shackle, A.
The order may be reversed to reassemble the lock. A light application of
assembly grease may be used to hold the ball bearings in place during
assembly.
If the lock only needs to be rekeyed, it is not necessary to remove the ring
retainer, retainer plate, extension, ball bearings, or shackle.
Two functions are available in the locks, NKR (Non Key Retaining) and
NRK (Non Removable Key) and both functions are accomplished as a
design feature of the extension.
The NKR, non key retaining, function extension used in the lock has a
projection on one side. You should note the orientation of this projection
when removing the extension so that you can easily reinstall it during the
reassembly process. Extensions are supplied with different sizes and
orientations, and two different styles have been used in the ProSeries
®
locks. Consult the Extension section, page 17, of this manual for more
detailed information.
The NRK, non removable key, function extension does not have a
projection to help with orientation and you will have to rely on the
position of the half-moon shaped actuator the tail of the cylinder contacts.
Again, different sizes and styles are available for use in the ProSeries
®
locks, so consult the Extension section, page 17, of this manual for more
detailed information.
See component parts list on page 8.
