INSTALLING AND ADJUSTING THE SOLENOID
NON-FAIL-SAFE:
A. Install the solenoid and locking cam assembly.
B) Install the locking cam spring (with the long leg of the spring on
the locking cam and the short leg in the groove on the case).
C) Before tightening the set screws, energize the solenoid and
check the position of the locking cam and locking lever.
D) Adjust the solenoid position to where the locking lever will clear
the locking cam and tighten set screws.
FAIL-SAFE:
A) Install the solenoid and locking cam.
B) Install the locking cam spring (with the long leg of the spring on
the locking cam and the short leg in the groove on the case).
C) Before tightening the set screws, energize the solenoid and
check the locking cam position.
D) Adjust the position of the solenoid to where it pushes the
locking cam into the fully locked position (be careful not to
position the solenoid too high or the solenoid plunger will not
seat).
E) De-energize and make sure the locking cam falls to a level to
be unlocked, tighten set screws.
12. Check all screws, tighten if necessary.
CAUTION: Do not over tighten the switch screws, over

GREASE HUBS WHERE
THEY CONTACT KEEPERS
TO INSPECT AND LUBRICATE THE STRIKE:
1. Remove the strike from the face plate, held on by two
(2) 12-24 x 3/8 HEX WASHER HEAD CAP SCS.
2. Remove the upper cover, held on by two (2) 4-40 x 3/16 PHMS.
Removal of the upper cover should be done slowly because the
locking cam spring may snap out of place. Also, care should be
taken to ensure that the locking cam spacer and locking lever
spacer are not lost.
3. Remove the cam spring spacer, cam spring and locking lever
spacer.
4. Loosen the two (2) 6-32 x 1/8 SSSC holding the solenoid, then
remove the solenoid and locking cam.
5. Remove the locking lever spring and locking lever. In some
versions of the strike, there is a recess in the locking lever and
the case (effective first quarter of 1984) for this spring. In cases
with the recess, the locking lever spring must be compressed into
the lever before it can be removed.
6. Lubricate the area in the case where the locking lever and locking
cam rest. (Be careful not to get any lubricant on the solenoid or
switches.) Lubricate the campin and lever pin.
7. Check the locking angle of the keeper and locking lever for wear.
Replace the keeper and/or lever if worn. (If the keeper is
disassembled for replacement or adding of a switch, lubricate the
keeper pin.)
8. Reinstall the locking lever and a new locking lever spring.
CAUTION:
Make sure the locking lever spring is placed back into
the recesses of the locking lever and the case.
9. Check the solenoid, plunger and plunger guide for excess wear,
dirt, grime or oil, if present wipe clean.
FAIL-SAFE:
Remove the retaining ring for inspection of the
plunger guide. Reassemble the solenoid and plunger with a new
retaining ring.
NON-FAIL-SAFE:
Lubricate the bottom edge of the locking cam
(contact points of the solenoid plunger).
10. NON-FAIL-SAFE: Lubricate the slot in the locking cam.
FAIL-SAFE: Lubricate the bottom edge of the locking cam
(contact point of the solenoid plunger).
