Before you Start:
1.
This handle has been manufactured to specifications which cannot be altered by the installer.
These include:
a Handle type: the CL400 handle is available in Passage, Privacy, Key Locking and Bi-Parting versions.
You have purchased the Privacy version.
b Configuration: the Privacy handle configurations include; Snib/Snib, Snib one Side, Snib/Emergency and
Privacy with Indication.
c Handing.
d Door thickness range: the CL400 handle is available to fit four door thickness ranges. These are:
34-40mm, 40-46mm, 46-52mm and 52-58mm (1-3/8" to 1-9/16", 1-5/8" to 1-3/4", 1-13/16" to 2" and
2-1/16" to 2-1/4").
e Security: the CL400 handle varies in security depending on the version
and configuration. Handles supplied with a raised shroud provide a
greater level of security than those with a flush shroud, however, it
is important to note that the CL400 handle should not be installed in
situations where a high level of security is required, e.g. external entry
points or high security internal doorways.
Refer to the information printed on the Side Handle and Chassis boxes to
ensure you have purchased a handle with the correct specifications for your situation.
If the specifications are incorrect you will need to exchange the handle.
2.
Component drawings have been provided. Please familiarise yourself with the components and check
the package to ensure nothing is missing. Note: Components may vary slightly between configurations.
3.
To ensure the handle latches accurately, it is essential that the door is adjusted for height and is
parallel with the closing jamb when closed before installing the handle and striker.
4.
This is a metric handle. Accurate measurements are shown in millimetres. Conversions to inches
are approximate.
WARNING: THE STRIKER CONTAINS A STRONG MAGNET
IRON FILINGS - Magnets will attract shavings from iron or ferrous metals which may be hard to
remove. Keep the striker a safe distance away from these materials.
DANGER FOR CHILDREN - Magnets may cause serious injury if swallowed. Keep out of reach of children.
CRUSHING, BLISTERS AND CUTS - Fingers may become caught between magnets resulting in crushing,
blisters or cuts.
BREAKING OR CHIPPING - It is possible that magnets could chip or shatter on contact with other hard
materials, resulting in chips flying off at high speed into someone's eye. Chips can also be very sharp -
treat them as you would broken glass.
MAGNETICALLY SENSITIVE ITEMS - Keep a safe distance between the magnet and all objects that can
be damaged by magnetism (e.g. mechanical watches, pacemakers, cell phones etc.).
DISPOSAL - Magnets should be disposed of carefully and in accordance with your local regulations.
