its stop. Release the changing button and remove the key.

in contact with the changing button.
• The lock can be mounted right-hand (RH), left-hand (LH), vertical-up (VU),
or vertical-down (VD).
• It is recommended the safe incorporate a relock device, or have a plate of
at least 12-gauge steel attached to the back of the lock. Plate dimensions
are given in the drawing at right. Attaching screws must be inserted into
the blind holes on the lock's back.
