TEST OPERATION (CONTINUED)
B.
The latches should be in the Door Closed Position. (See Figure 11
-
1) Press the push bar. The latches should
move to the Door Open position and stay there. (See Figure 11
-
2) When adjusted properly, both latches
will release at the same time when the push bar is pressed. If the latches do not move and stay in
the Door Open Position, loosen the adjustment locking screw and screw in the fine adjustment screw by one
-
half turn. (See Figure 11
-
3) Press the push bar again. If the latches do not move into the Door Open
Position continue screwing in the fine adjustment screw by one half turn and pressing the push bar until the
latches are able to move into the Door Open Position. Retighten the adjustment locking screw.
C.
Test the operation by shutting the door. When the door is shut, the latches should rotate fully into the
Door Closed Position. If the latches do not go fully into the Door Closed Position, check to see if the door is
flush against the stop. If the door is flush against the stop and the latches cannot go into the Door Closed
Position, try turning both strikes 180 degrees. This will move the tab
1/16”
further from the stop.
(See Figure 11
-
4 and 11

5) Unscrew the strikes, turn them 180 degrees so the tab is now facing the other
direction. Reinstall the strikes. Shut the door to see if the latches rotate fully into the Door Closed Position.
D.
If the door is not flush against the stop and the latches cannot go into the Door Closed Position, try unscrew
ing the fine adjustment screw as described in step A of this section.
E.
If the door is difficult to open when the push bar is pressed, try screwing in the fine adjustment screw as
described in step B of this section. This may need to be done for both or either latches depending on which
one seems to be preventing the door from opening.
F.
When the device is working properly, reinstall the head cover with supplied screws.
