If, during mounting of the pull station, the door be-
comes detached, complete the following steps to reattach
the door to the backplate. The door cannot be connected
to the pull station if the unit is mounted to the backbox.
1. Position the door and backplate side by side in the
full open position. (i.e. 180-degrees with respect to
each other.)
2. With the backplate position fixed, move the door be-
hind the backplate, as shown in the illustration, part
A.
3. Align the hinge posts and holes by bringing the door
up to meet the backplate, paying particular attention
to the 'keying' that occurs when the door's post hole
is aligned to the backplate's hinge post. Refer to the
illustration, part B.
4. With the two pieces aligned and 'keyed' together, slide
the holes down onto the posts. Refer to the illustra-
tion, part C.
5. Holding the backplate, close the door and backplate
slightly to lock the door and backplate together.
