5c. The interface cylinder must be centered and posi-
tioned flush with (or slightly below) the surface of the door
(see Fig. 5c).

5d. With the interface cylinder HELD SECURELY in its
correct position, tighten the set screw, securing the
interface cylinder to the lock (see Fig. 5d).
Important! If the interface cylinder is not parallel to
the door after tightening the set screw, then you must
verify that the original Adams Rite
nally installed correctly (installed square to the door).
Failure to ensure the interface cylinder is installed cor-
rectly could cause lock binding or improper operation of
the lock mechanism.

5f. Verify the face of the interface cylinder (" HW1824" )
is positioned parallel to the surface of the door.
With a straight edge flush against the surface of the
door as shown in the image below, place a small ruler
on the right face of the interface cylinder to measure
the distance between the face of the interface cylinder
and the surface of the door (the right "gap"). See Fig.
5f below.
