the Lock to be de-activated for
extended periods of time.
• Always be sure to reactivate
the Lock by pushing the
Disengaging Clip down again.
• Install the Disengaging Clip in the
hole on one side, with ‘UNLOCK’
letters up, then straddle the lock
housing and position on the
opposite side. This Clip is not
meant to be overstretched.
Test that Disengaging Clip has

USE CAUTION. DO NOT DRILL ALL THE WAY THROUGH DOORS OR DRAWERS.
• Measure the door/drawer thickness and make a mark 3mm (1/8 in) less than
the door/drawer thickness on the 7mm (9/32 in) drill bit (E).
• DRILL WITH CAUTION:
Start drilling carefully into 7mm (9/32 in) hole on Template (F) and ensure
to stop drilling at mark drawn on drill bit.
The drilled hole will now be 3mm (1/8 in) from the front of door/drawer.
• The hole must be clean and free from all debris.
Figure G & H
• Refer to ‘Door Thickness’ table & diagram on front page,
to see if plunger pin is required.
• Match “Catch” over the 2 holes where previously marked (A). Install 12mm (1/2 in)
Screws (Drill holes with hand/cordless drill-optional using 1.5mm (1/16 in)
drill bit). Screw in loosely so adjustment can be made later if required. Match
Lock into 7mm (9/32 in) hole and align over the 4 holes (B) marked previously
and screw into place with four 12mm (1/2 in) Screws.
• A pair of auxiliary holes is provided for use if necessary.
• Close door and open using Mag Lock
®
Key.
