Follow steps "a" through "g" for CD installations

a. Remove endcap and endcap mounting bracket.
b. Remove fillerplate.
c. Remove and discard shipping insert and nut. Loosen (2) screws from dogging assembly.
d. Install mortise cylinder (sold separately) with large hex nut provided.
e. Trial fit dogging assembly. If cylinder is too short, remove spacers as necessary and reattach them under the (2) screw heads (see above). Fasten the (2) screws to the rest of the assembly.
NOTE: The key should easily turn in both directions.
f. Rotate key counterclockwise
g. Assembly complete. Continue with Panic Hardware instruction.

DO NOT REMOVE NYLON SPACER ON BACK OF BRACKET! Secure the endcap bracket to door by tightening the factory installed self-drilling screw.

OR IMPORTANT: Install (2) 6-32 FH screws

CORRECT HANDING OF DEVICE

NOTE: LINK SHOULD ALWAYS BE IN TOP POSITION

Verify carriage moves up and down smoothly when pushpad is depressed and released.

TOP ROD INSTALLATION

TOP LATCH TESTING AND ADJUSTMENT

1. Close the door. The holdback lever should engage the backside of the strike, allowing the latchbolt to extend. The device should latch securely and latchbolt should fully project into the strike cavity.
2. Press the pushpad. The latchbolt should retract fully and smoothly from the strike as the door opens.
3. Release the pushpad. The latchbolt should remain retracted until the door is closed.
4. Once the latchbolt operation has been evaluated, the strike should be checked and adjusted to allow the door to be held snug to the frame but allow free movement of the latchbolt during normal operation. When the appropriate position has been set, a third hole should be marked, drilled and tapped for a #10 machine or use a #10 self drilling screw. Lock the strike in position with this third screw. (See Fig. 5C)

NOTE: For centerline heights significantly higher or lower than the recommended 40", it may be necessary to use shorter or longer adjustment hexbolts in the rods to effect appropriate adjustment. For some door heights it maybe necessary to cut the rod. Be sure to cut the un-threaded end. If this is done, we recommend rod covers be used to prevent exposed bolt threads.

TROUBLESHOOTING

1. Latchbolt does not completely relatch when closing the door

Loosen the strike screws and adjust the strike to allow the latchbolt to completely extend into the strike. Tighten the screws and add the third center screw to lock the strike in place.

2. Latchbolt fails to retract when pushpad is pushed

Check centercase assembly and verify that the link is attached to the TOP post of the centerlift assembly (see Fig. 8A), or shorten top rod by rotating bolt. Relock bolt into carriage.

3. Latchbolt is slow or does not completely extend when door closes.

Check rod adjustment (Fig 10).

Check centercase, verify that the 1/4-20 x 1/4" screws have been installed (See Fig. 8A).

NOTE: IF TRO DEVICE, SKIP THIS PAGE AND CONTINUE TO PAGE 15

Insert rod into bottom bolt. Align holes in rod and bolt that will result in overall length closest to dimension needed. Adjust threaded hexbolt at opposite end of rod for fine adjustment of length. Mark location on rod where it meets the bolt and/or tape bolt in position. FIG. 11

103123 Pg 13

BOTTOM LATCH Testing and Adjustment Testing

1. Close the door; bolt should drop into the strike as the door moves into the fully closed position.
2. Press the pushpad and open the door. The bottom latch bolt should retract out of the strike and clear the strike by 1/16" to 1/8". Vertical travel of the bolt should be 3/4".
3. Release the pushpad; bolt should remain retracted until the door is closed.

Adjustment

1. If bottom bolt drags the floor or hits edge of strike:

Loosen bolt retainer in the carriage assembly and pull bolt from carriage. Screw bolt onto bottom rod one or two turns and return it to the carriage. Test door to assure clearance and secure bolt in carriage by tightening bolt retaining plate.

FIRE RATED TOP ROD ONLY (TRO) DOORS

A door locking popper (Detex p/n 101563) is required when a fire door utilizes a top latching mechanism only (TRO). The popper is designed to project a spring loaded bolt into the adjacent frame or door in the event of fire. Detex recommends installing the popper in the edge of the door 12" above the threshold or finished floor Holes for the popper and plug must be aligned with each other.

NOTE: Door/Frame reinforcement is required where popper and cap plug are to be installed.

STANDARD SURFACE VERTICAL INSTALLATION

1. If metal bottom bolt guard is to be used, do not attach the plastic bottom latch cover (refer to bottom bolt guard installation instructions.)
2. If rod covers are to be used, do not install rod guides (refer to rod cover installation instructions).
