Reverse the Door Handle
After the door has been reversed, the door handle of the Knurr DCM will operate without adjustment,
but it will be upside down. To reverse the handle, follow these steps:
1.
Open the door and remove all the bolts holding the door handle and lock assembly, including the
four brackets. Studs and nuts secure the brackets to the door frame.
2.
Flip the door handle and lock assembly 180 degrees and reattach it with the bolts and nuts.
3.
Check the handle and lock to ensure they operate properly.
Hinge is on the Knurr DCM door. Lift the
door until the hinge pins at the top and
bottom clear and slide the door free. The
door is held in place by gravity.
