the unit assemblies may ease initial installation.
D. INSTALLING OUTSIDE UNIT ASSEMBLY
D-1 Slide the drive unit (a) into 21⁄8”(54 mm) cross bore hole
by depressing latch bolt (b) in slightly until the outside
unit assembly (c) rests flush against the door. Ensure
the red collar is seated in the top left mounting hole.
Note: If the red collar appears to be too snug in the
1/4 inch hole, you can enlarge the hole in the door
to 5/16”.
D-2 The drive unit (f) must engage the latch unit
prongs (g) and the shoe retractor (h) must engage
the latch unit tailpiece (i) as shown.
E. INSTALLING INSIDE UNIT ASSEMBLY
Note: Installing levers to the unit assemblies before mounting
the unit assemblies may ease initial installation.
E-1 Slide the drive hub (a) into the drive sleeve (b) and
then guide the red collar on the inside unit (c)
through its respective mounting hole on the door
and carefully push the inside unit flush against
the door.

before mounting the unit assemblies may ease
initial installation.
