Rods should move freely inside door . Bolts extend automatically
when door closes and top strike is tripped . Top bolt should retract flat .
Bottom bolt should travel 1/2" and engage 3/8" into strike in down
position, without dragging on floor surface in up position .
If top latch does not engage properly check alignment . When locked,
latch bolt should not be preloaded by strike (Area A) . Shim or
reposition strike if necessary .
Rod Adjustment for Bolt Throw
1 . Remove Latch assembly cover screws and cover .
2 . Use 3/32" Allen wrench to loosen set screws C
3 . Adjusting screws B and B only provide fine rod adjustment . If
1 2
screws bottom out before proper device operation, door and device
must be removed . Larger adjustments may then be made either by
threading rod in or out, or by moving cotter pin to different hole in
rod .
4 . Adjust top rod first. With device in dogged position (panic devices)
or touchbar fully depressed (fire devices), adjust top rod so that
the top latchbolt is flush and the hold back feature is engaged .

5 . Adjust bottom rod. With top latch retracted in hold back position,
and touch bar dogged or fully depressed, adjust bottom rod so that
the deadbolt clears the strike by 1/16" . The bottom rod should be
in position in the active case with the square head of the connector
hanging in the slide .

present, operate the device with the outside trim . An additional
minor adjustment may be required for full retraction and correct
strike engagement .
7 . When finished, lock adjusting screws in place with Allen set
screws .
Caution: To avoid thread damage and provide positive locking, be
sure Allen set screws engage flats on adjusting screws .
