14 Test Operation

Latches should tightly engage strikes in closed position.

If door can be pushed open without depressing crossbar, top rod connector has been over-adjusted. See Step 10.

When crossbar is depressed, latches should freely disengage strikes.

When active and inactive cases are dogged down, latches should disengage strikes.

If not, remove top and bottom latch cases and readjust adjustable rod connectors. See Steps 10 and 12.
