FOR LOCK ADJUSTMENT:
Problem: The Lock does not restrain the drawer.
Rotate the cam counterclockwise by a quarter of a turn.
This motion lowers the lock fork resulting in greater lift
of the lock bar. Turn the key to the locked position and
check the drawer to confirm that the lock is working
correctly. Repeat this step if necessary.
Problem: The drawers lock, but an audible click
is heard when closing the drawer. Rotate the cam
clockwise by a quarter of a turn. This motion raises the
lock fork relative to the lock pin, eliminating an interference
condition. Turn the key to the locked position and check
the drawer to confirm that the lock is working correctly.
Repeat this step if necessary.
