WARNING

Attention Installer: Any retrofit or other field modification to a fire rated opening can potentially impact the fire rating of the opening, and ASSA ABLOY makes no representations or warranties concerning what such impact may be in any specific situation. When retrofitting any portion of an existing fire-rated opening, or specifying and installing a new fire-rated opening, please consult with a code specialist or local code official (Authority Having Jurisdiction) to ensure compliance with all applicable codes and ratings.

Installation Instructions

Prepare Device for Trim

Omit for exit only function, with or without dummy trim.

Drawing shows only essential parts, for clarity.

The Lifter Assembly is nested in the Device Case.

The boss of the lifter moving plate penetrates the round hole above the case slider center.

The Device Case seats over the door face, with the Lifter Assembly projecting thru the door cutout surface and into the door cavity.

Note: The rod connector (with stud) works in the cavity between the lifter track and the door (hook lifter track behind rod connector).

Maintenance

• 1. Periodically remove covers and coat mechanisms with a silicone base lubricant. This is particularly required in corrosive environments for proper product function.
• 2. Check mounting fasteners periodically. Retighten if found loose. Apply screw locking compound (available at automotive part stores) or change part fasteners if screws continue to back out.
• 3. Periodic checks (and adjustments) of strikes are required to compensate for changes in the opening (e.g. door sagging).

Check Before Starting

Unreinforced Doors or Frames

Doors and Frames with walls having a structural thickness (metal skin plus reinforcement or solid hardwood) to engage less than (3) full screw threads are considered unreinforced.

Unreinforced Doors: Use SNB (sex nuts and bolts).

Unreinforced Frames: Use Blind Rivet Nuts.

Recommended fasteners for unreinforced openings are not necessarily supplied by ASSA ABLOY Locks and Hardware.
