Components

The drawing below shows the names of the most important components. This drawing can be used as reference throughout the manual.

Specifications

• The Free Vinci is a 100% mechanical code lock, which does not need a battery nor electricity to function.
• The code lock is equipped with a single-side operational code panel. This enables you to work with an entrance code and a quick free-exit handle.
• At the entrance side, the handle is blocked by means of the code panel. Upon entering the correct code, the handle is released and you can retract the self-latching bolt by means of the handle.
• The code panel is protected by a polyamide cover. This prevents dust and rain from penetrating.
• The quality code lock was designed in a very user-friendly manner. Changing the code setting is very easy. A 4 to 6-digit entrance code can be set by means of the additional code screws.
• The lock is equipped with a security press plate which rules out detection of the secret code by putting pressure on the handle. After the correct code has been entered and the gate has been opened with the handle, the code is automatically reset.
  

Profile preparation

Determine the correct position of the lock in the gate frame. The mounting holes can be prepared by means of the drawing below.
NOTE! The hole of the self-latching bolt, needs to be larger (0 1″) at the back of the gate frame then at the front (03/4″ mm). This allows you to fit the Free Vinci easily into the gate frame when a minimum distance (4-3/8″) between the gate frame and the first gate bar is required.

Changing the code panel to the entrance side

Before mounting the Free Vinci to the gate, check if the code entry side is at the correct side of the gate. If not, follow the instructions below to change the code panel to the entrance side of the gate.

• Step 1: Remove the closing cover.
  First remove the cover screw and then slide out the closing cover and the dust- & rain cover.
  

• Step 2: Switch the code mechanism to the other side
  Slide out the code panel. Loosen the code mechanism screw and flip the code mechanism to the other side.
  

• Step 3: Remount the code panel
  Tighten the code mechanism screw. Change the personal code following the instructions in Chapter 7, Code setting. With the numeric plate in the correct position, you are ready to replace the code panel. CAUTION! The reset button always needs to be on the latch bolt side of the lock.
  

• Step 4: Reinstall the covers
  After inserting the code panel, insert the Dust and Rain Cover so the cover opens over the code panel. Slide the Closing Cover into position and tighten the screw.
  CAUTION! We recommend you test the lock function (see chapter 10 Operation) before mounting the lock.
  

Code setting

Because of security reasons, the Free Vinci is developed in such a manner that the code can only be changed when it is not mounted. The default setting of the code is 1-2-3-4. The steps below explain how you can modify your own personal code in a fast and simple manner. The Free Vinci enables the setting of a 4 to 6-digit code.

• Step 1: Remove the closing cover and code panel.
  After removing the code panel, you will find the red (stop) and green (go) code screws. From the factory, the green screws are automatically set in position 1-2-3-4, as shown. Remove all code screws from the code mechanism with the enclosed Allen key.
  

• Step 2: Set your personal code
  Insert the green code screws in the position you want your personal code to be. Fill the remaining holes with the red screws. All holes must be filled with a screw. Tighten the screws down so they are firmly seated.
  

Mounting the handles

NOTE! The handle at the top position is the code entrance handle on the secure side of the gate. The bottom position is for the free exit handle on the “safe” side of the gate.
CAUTION! Install the handle shaft so that the handle’s set screw tightens into the spreader side of the shaft.

Turn the rollerbolt to match the closing direction

CAUTION! Before mounting the Free Vinci to the gate, check if the rollerbolt is in the correct position. If not, remove the screws and turn the rollerbolt. NOTE! We recommend thread locker for the rollerbolt mounting screws. Tighten the screws securly.

Operation

Enter a false code in order to test the reset function. Drawing A After having entered an incorrect code, the handle remains blocked. Drawing B Now press the reset button and enter the correct code. Drawing C & D. The handle can be moved after entering the correct code. This will retract the lock’s self- latching bolt. Drawing E. After using the handle, the code is automatically reset. In doing so, the code needs to be entered each time in order to open the Free Vinci.

Mounting the Free Vinci

After testing the operation of your lock, the Free Vinci can be mounted onto the gate. The fast, easy and typical Locinox mounting is explained below. First slide the spacer tubes over the hex head socket screws and mount the lock onto the gate profile by using the hex key. (1) & (2). Tighten the hex head socket screws and cover the holes with the enclosed plastic cover caps.(3)
