Spindle Assembly

Caution: When removing the spindle assembly from the trim, keep the clutch spring and screws, they are needed for reassembly. When finished, check the lock and unlock function before mounting. Follow detail Figure 1 for sizing the tailpiece to the door thickness.

For Thumbpiece Applications:

Thumbpiece applications follow the same procedure as above, but the original smaller drive plate must be used with the new tailpiece included in the kit. To do this remove the cylinder housing assembly and the original spindle assembly from the trim (steps 1 & 2 to left). Remove the retaining ring from both spindle assemblies, switch the tailpieces and reassemble (longer tail-piece to the smaller drive plate) with a retaining ring. Reattach to trim using clutch spring and screws; then reassemble the cylinder housing with the cylinder.

540F or 440F Trim Applications:

For 540F or 440F Trim remove roll pin from Tailpiece assembly (keep pin), remove Tailpiece and replace with optional Tailpiece supplied. Use initial roll pin to reassemble. Size to fit, see Figure 1, above.

Strike

Caution: Strike location will vary. Adjust strike to compensate for the shim height.
