INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Prep door according to latch backset and determine if trim is to be mounted horizontal or vertical mounting using backset template.
Install latch using either wood (item 5) or machine screws (item 2) depending on door type.
Install trim:

A) Test both handle assemblies to determine which is the push or pull type.

B) Select the pull handle assembly (item 8) first.

C) Place pull handle on pull side of the door and slide cam shaft into latch cam. Then place the push side handle assembly (item 4) on the push side of the door. Slide push side cam shaft into latch cam. By hand, fasten both trim handles with (4) 12-24 machine screws (item 3) and (4) 12-24 hex nuts (item 7). Test both handles for free movement of the latch bolt before tightening all screws. If latch bolt does not extend or retract freely because of any type of binding, loosen mounting screws to adjust alignment of trim handles and re-tighten screws one at a time while checking latch bolt movement from both handles.

D) Test for proper operation and check that the mounting hardware (item 3) & (item 7) is tight before proceeding with the next step.

E) Place covers (item 1) over push and pull trims and secure with (2) 8-32 flat head screws (item 2) on each cover.
