D-1 Prior to installing the passage actuator, hold the chosen actuator housing in one hand, and with the other hand, rotate the key cylinder or knob counterclockwise until it stops. If the key cylinder actuator is used, withdraw the key, which will lock the cylinder in this position (a detent in the turn knob locks the cylinder).

b a

b a c

c

  • D-2 Insert the key cylinder or turn knob assembly (a or b) into the opening on the inside unit assembly (c). Upon completion, the arrow of the turn knob should be pointing to the left, or the dot on the face of the key cylinder actuator should be on the left.
  • D-3 Secure the passage set assembly with the spring clip (d) from the inside.

D-4 Rotate the knob or key cylinder (re-insert key at this point) clockwise to test the rotation. If properly installed, the knob or key cylinder should rotate 90 degrees clockwise so that the arrow (knob) is pointing up or the dot (key cylinder) is at the top.

Note: Leave the actuator set in this position for installation (if key cylinder is used, remove the key at this point).

Note: The tailpiece of the passage actuator is scored on several places to allow you to easily break off the section that extends beyond the required length to engage the passage set cam.

D-5 Hold the tailpiece firmly with a pair of pliers, adjacent to the desired break line. With a second pair of pliers, grip the tailpiece on the other side of the scored line and bend up and down until it breaks.

E. INSTALLING OUTSIDE UNIT ASSEMBLY

Note: Installing levers/knobs to the unit assemblies before mounting the unit assemblies may ease initial installation.

E-1 For models 504x & 505x only. When installing nonpassage models, skip to step E-2 . Ensure that the passage cam (b) is rotated counterclockwise until it stops. When complete, the slot will be vertical.

L. INSTALLING THE STRIKE

Note: The latch and strike provided must be used .

  • L-1 Mark location of strike on the door frame, making certain that the strike opening is aligned (a) with the latch bolt.
  • L-2 Mortise doorframe for strike 3⁄32" (3 mm) deep minimum to dimensions shown. Secure strike (b) to the door frame using two 1" (25 mm) combination screws (c) (supplied).

M. CHANGING COMBINATIONS

Note: The factory set combination of your new 5000 series: Press "2" and "4" at the same time, then release. Press "3", then release. Press the "ENTER" button, then release. For your security, the factory set combination MUST BE changed when lock is installed.

The combination can be easily changed using one to five of the lock's buttons in any order in the combination. Each button can only be used once. Note: Three or more non-sequential button combinations are recommended for higher security. Also, two or more buttons may be pushed together (at the same time) as part of your new combination.

CAUTION: The door MUST BE open during this entire procedure.

Note: The combination change can be done without removing lock from door. Ensure that the door is open during this procedure. Rotate the outside lever/knob (d) once to stop position and release to reset the lock the latch should not retract.

M-1 Press the existing combination (b) followed by the ENTER button (c) and release; do not turn the lever/knob.

Note: Determine if you have an interior/exterior code change, and follow appropriate procedure below.

Exterior Combination Change

M-2 Insert the release tool (a) through hole in number pad and gently lift up loop end of the tool to depress the code change button until you hear a click ; remove tool and do not press any buttons (proceed to M-4).

Interior Combination Change

  • M-3 Unscrew special torx screw from inside housing using supplied torx wrench. Enter your existing combination, and depress and release the "ENTER" button. Insert longer end of the same torx wrench through the opening until it engages with the mating part. Turn wrench counterclockwise (using minimal force) approximately 90 degrees, until it clicks. Return wrench to initial position. Remove wrench and replace torx screw.
  • M-4 **This Step Is Very Important** Rotate lever/ knob (d) once, and only once to clear the old combination; the latch (e) will retract; release the lever/knob.
  • M-5 Press in your new combination (b) followed by the ENTER button (c) and release.
  • M-6 Rotate the lever/knob (d) to verify that the latch (e) retracts confirming the validity of the new combination (if you try the old combination now, it should not work).

IMPORTANT: The "ENTER" button must be depressed and released after entering the combination. The latch will not retract until the "ENTER" button is depressed and released.

Caution: Check the operation of the latch by making sure that the deadlatch (a) stops against the strike (b) as shown and does not slide into the strike opening when the door is closed. If that situation occurs, then a total lockout may occur. This will void our warranty of the complete lock mechanism. If necessary, correct the door over-travel by using the rubber bumpers as described in Section N (Installing Rubber Bumpers).

N. INSTALLING RUBBER BUMPERS

  • N-1 Close the door and apply pressure making sure the deadlatch (a) rests on the strike plate (b) as shown. Standing on the frame (door stop) side of the door, check for gaps between the door and the frame on the three sides of the frame (left, right, and top).
  • N-2 Mark locations where the gaps are approximately 3⁄16" (5 mm). Make sure these locations are free from grease and dust. Peel the bumpers (c) (supplied) from their protective backing without touching the adhesive surface and stick them on the marked locations.

Note: Allow 24 hours for adhesive to set before testing. The door may be operated normally during this time.

O. HOW TO RESET A LOST OR UNKNOWN COMBINATION

There is no way to determine a forgotten, unknown or lost combination from the front or outside of the lock. However, it can be reset and recovered or reset and changed to a new combination by following the steps in this section.

Warning: Since this procedure is of a technical nature, only technically trained personnel in the lock and hardware field should undertake this operation. For further assistance, call the Kaba Access Control technical support line at

800-849-TECH (8324) or 336-725-1331 between 8AM and 5PM Eastern Standard Time, Monday through Friday (except holidays). a

O-1 Removing Lock From Door

Remove both the outside unit assembly (a) and the inside unit assembly (b). (Reverse procedures from sections E and F of this manual.)

O-2 Removing Combination Chamber Assembly

Carefully remove the base plate of outside unit assembly (a) by removing the 2 Phillips screws (one screw may be found under an inspection sticker).

Remove the combination chamber assembly (b) from the base plate by removing the 2 Phillips screws (c).

Remove the 3-sided dust cover (d) to fully expose the chamber by removing 2 small Phillips screws (e). (May be 1 screw (x) in newer models)

b

b

O-3 Resetting and Recovery of Current Combination

To reset the code gears (a), each one of the 5 "L" shaped legs (b) of the unlocking slide (c) must engage snugly with the corresponding code gear pocket (d) next to it.

Position the chamber in one hand, as shown. Hold chamber by the top screw tab (e) and bottom screw tab (f).

Rotate the reset cam (g) back toward you

with your finger, towards the key stems (h) as far as it will go and then release. Now look at the code gears (a) and the unlocking slide (c). Note that some or all 5 of the code gear pockets (d) are rotated away from the "L" shaped legs (b) as if out of alignment. Typically each code gear pocket will be at a slightly different distance compared to the other.

Note: Sometimes two different gear pockets are away from alignment by exactly the same distance – this indicates that the current combination uses two different number buttons (example, 2 and 4) depressed at the same time as part of the combination.

Using a small flat blade screw driver or your thumbnail, depress the key stem which corresponds to the gear pocket which has been rotated the farthest away (out of alignment) from the "L" shaped leg. When depressed, the key stem(s) should stay down and the corresponding gear pocket(s) should move closer to its corresponding "L" leg, closer to alignment. Record the key stem number. This is the first number of your combination.

Note: If two gear pockets are at the same distance , depress both of these corresponding key stems at the same time .

Continue by pressing the key stem that corresponds to the gear pocket that was the next furthest away (do not include gear pockets that have already been rotated). Record each key stem number that is depressed. Continue this procedure until all five gear pockets are aligned with their corresponding "L" shaped legs on the unlocking slide. The combination is the recorded numbers, in the order recorded.

Note: If you depress the wrong key stem by mistake, rotate the reset cam back toward you, (toward the key stems and release). This resets the code gears and you must repeat the above procedure, O-3.

O-4 Clearing the Current Combination and Setting a New Combination

Note: Align the code gear pockets with the "L" shaped legs.

Depress the combination change button (i) located on top of the combination chamber and release.

Rotate the reset cam back toward you with your finger (toward the key stems) as far as it will go and release.

Enter your new combination by depressing the key stem corresponding to the first number (1 through 5) of your combination. For example, if the new combination is 3-2-5, then you would depress 3 first, then 2 and finally 5. Record this new combination for future reference.

Push the shoulder (j) at the bottom of the Unlocking slide up toward the combination change button and release. If each of the 5 "L" shaped legs of the unlocking slide engages snugly inside its corresponding code gear pocket, then it confirms that the new combination has been successfully changed. Rotate the reset cam (g) back toward you and release.

Note: If all 5 "L" shaped legs do not align fully with their corresponding code gear pockets, repeat the procedures O-3 and O-4.

O-5 Reinstalling chamber assembly into lock and retesting

Reinstall the 3-sided dust cover over the combination chamber with the 2 small Phillips screws removed. (May be 1 screw in newer models) Reinstall the combination chamber assembly to the base plate with the 2 Phillips screws removed.

Reinstall the base plate on to the outside lock assembly with the 2 Phillips screws removed. Make sure all parts have been reinstalled correctly.

  • O-6 Reinstall lock on door by following the procedures in Sections E and F of this manual.
  • O-7 Retest new combination with lock on door by entering the new numbers followed by the "ENTER" button and rotating the outside lever/knob. The lock should open and the latch should retract.
