e Install Components

A. Install Lock

Lock in hand, depress guardbolt. Check that latchbolt is deadlocked. Check that latchbolt lever (and cylinder lever, hubs, and thumbpiece lever, if relevant) operate the lock freely. Insert Lock Body into door cavity. Fasten to door edge (2 PUFHM/WS)

Note: Make sure that door reinforcing clips or doorwalls support lock immovable (restricting rocking motion).

Fit over bolts and fasten to lock base front (2 PUFHMS). Check that bolts retract and extend freely.

C. Install Strike - Seat in place (lip bend away from opening) Fasten to frame (2 PUFHM/WS).

D. Install Trim - Follow instructions packed with trim.

E. Install Device

Seat Bar in place (Device finger must engage latchbolt lever, thru slot in lock case/cover, as shown in Detail 1). Fasten Device Head (2 PRHMS or SNB). Set Bar level. Locate End Clamp holes. Prepare End Clamp mounting holes. Fasten End Clamp in place. (2 #1/4-20 PRHMS or 3/8" (9.5) Dia. SNB).

1. Depress touchbar (bolt must retract). Release touchbar (bolt must extend).

2. Actuate trim (bolt must retract). Release trim actuator (bolt must extend).

• 3. (NOT FOR FIRE DEVICES) Depress touchbar, turn dogging key clock wise (bar must remain depressed, bolt must remain retracted). Turn dogging key counter clockwise (bar and bolt must return to extended position).
• 4. Close door. Latchbolt should fully engage into strike cavity, guardbolt should retract over strike ramp. Door should not rattle.

NOTE: When resulting operation is faulty, check first for visible binding or interference. If there is no apparent reason for the fault, remove item from the door and recheck its operation before assuming that it is defective. If latchbolt travel is not adequate, adjust device finger as shown on Detail 2.

G. Tighten all Mounting Screws.
