Mechanical Key Lock - LA GARD 2220/ 2270
Fig. 1: Changeable key lock 2270
A. Important information
• The locking mechanism works smoothly. No force should be applied - particularly when
inserting the key into the lock.
• Opening the lock with a damaged key can result in damage to the lock.
• The lock must not be lubricated.
• The lock may only be installed by specialist personnel and only be opened by the manufac-
turers. Unauthorised opening will lead to invalidation of any warranty claims.
• Should additional keys be required, only original LA GARD round keys are to be used.
Otherwise no warranty claims may be raised.
B. Opening the lock
• Insert the key into the keyhole. The furrow of the key must be in line with the mark on the
escutcheon. Turn the key to the right until it stops (approx. 180°).
• The key cannot be removed if the lock is open.
C. Locking the lock
• Turn the key left until it stops (approx. 180°).
• Remove the key and keep it in a safe place where it is not accessible to unauthorised
persons.

D. Set-up key (works key)
The set-up key is used in the factory until delivery to the customer. It fi ts to all locks that have
not yet been changed, and considerably facilitates the work in the factory.
E. Changing the lock
Operating keys are delivered in pairs. They are random coded and it is not possible to copy
them with standard key cutting machines.
1. Open the lock with the set-up key (or the currently used operating key) and open the safe.
2. With the safe door open, lock the lock again. Do not remove the key.
3. Turn the key slowly to the RIGHT until the mark on the key (thin line on the key shaft) is in
line with the mark on the escutcheon (in the lock is a "click" audible).
4. Insert the change activator into the change activator hole in the lock cover (inside door!)
and turn the activator without any force to the RIGHT until it stops (approx. 90°) - like a
combination lock.
5. Turn the key LEFT until it stops and remove it.
6. Insert a new operating key and turn it slowly to the RIGHT until the mark on the key is lined-
up with the mark on the escutcheon. Do not apply any force.
7. Turn the change activator to the LEFT until it stops (approx. 90°) and remove it.
8. The lock is set to the new key and will not work with the old key (or keys with different
codes) anymore.
Note: Check the closing and opening function several times, before (!) closing the safe
door.
The change process can be repeated as often as you like to. "Old" keys can be used again at
any time.
