Door Latch Mechanism (2, Fig. 38)
The latch is a safety device that automatically
actuates the program push button cancelling lever
each time the door handle is unlatched. It also
operates the interval timer line switch on KDC and
KDI models and resets the timer.
The latch can be adjusted to increase the door seal
tension by adding shims between latch and inner
door mounting bracket.
