INSTRUCTIONS FOR ADJUSTING THE TOP HINGE

NOTE!!! Do not open the door while adjusting the hinge

"Residential Hinge Doctor" (A or B) (see ILL-I) fits tightest over the hinge knuckles, applying that end to the upper most hinge knuckle attached to the door itself.

Make sure the arrow faces the lockset. (see ILL-2)

Step 2: With the arrow facing the lockset tighten the Allen head bolt so the tool just fits snug on the hinge knuckle (it does not have to be tight)

Step 3: Rotate the Hinge Doctor toward the door lock applying sufficient pressure to bend the Hinge Knuckle.

Step 4: Repeat steps 2 & 3 on the other hinge knuckles that are attached to the door.

Note: Sufficient pressure should be able to be applied by hand. However if more leverage is needed a pipe or crescent wrench can be used as a lever by adding it to the opposite end of the Hinge Doctor and pushing toward the door knob (lockset).

Caution excessive force with an extension will damage the Hinge Doctor.

Adjusting the bottom hinge is NOT recommended!
