7. Fit the lever handle onto the drive tube. It
should rest approximately 1/16” from the
body of the housing. (See Fig. 8)
If it can’t be pushed that close to the hous-
ing, the lever catch is probably not pushed in.
Push it in.
If the lever catch is stuck, the override shaft
is in the wrong position. The two small
indents on the cross of the override shaft
must be vertically aligned as in fig. 2
8. Press the lever firmly against the hous-
ing while turning the key counterclockwise
(this applies to both right-handed and left-
handed locks) until it is in the horizontal
position. (Fig. 9)

CAUTION
WARNING
IMPORTANT
If it is not possible to turn the key counter-
clockwise to complete this step, the spring
washer (D, see page 10) may be too tense: (not
for lever feel)
Hit the lever carefully with a rubber mal-
let to loosen the spring washer. (you may
want to cover the lever handle with a cloth
or other material to protect the finish of the
metal)
9. Remove the key. The lock will look as
shown in Fig.10.
Gently check the rotation of the lever handle. It
should easily rotate approximately 45º.
Troubleshooting:
Right-handed Lock: Turn the lever handle clock-
wise without forcing it. If it stops at approxi-
mately 15º, it was not assembled correctly as
shown in step 4 (Fig. 6 & 7). Do not try to force
it to turn. Release the lever handle. Insert the
small screwdriver (T, page 10) into the small
hole on the underside of the lever handle and
push in the lever catch. Re-do steps 2, 3, 4 & 5.
Left-handed Lock: Turn the lever handle coun-
ter-clockwise without forcing. The drive hub
(Fig.14 page14) should not rotate when the
lever handle is turned. If it does, it was not
assembled correctly as shown in step 4 (Fig. 6
& 7). Release the lever handle. Insert the small
screwdriver (T, page 10) into the small hole on
the underside of the lever handle and push in
the lever catch. Re-do steps 2, 3, 4 & 5.
