3. Adjust bottom rod with adjusting
screw C2. (Figure 22) With top latch
retracted in hold back position, and

hanging in Guide. (See note in Step

4. Check device operation by opening
and closing door. An additional
minor adjustment may be required
for full retraction and correct strike
engagement.
NOTE: To avoid thread damage and
provide positive locking, be sure set
screws engage flats on adjusting
screws.

third screw in top strike to lock strike in
position with 10-24 x 3/4" PFHMS.
