7 Install mounting plates
1 Insert the outside mounting plate through the door
and mortise case.
2 Position the inside mounting plate opposite the
outside mounting plate and screw them securely in
place.
Caution: Do not overtighten the mounting plate
screws. Overtightening may compress the mortise
cavity and bind the locking mechanism.
8 Install cylinder (EV and FV only)
Use a cylinder wrench (ED211) to thread the concealed
cylinder into the mortise case so that the groove
around the cylinder head is even with the door surface.
Note: Do not tighten the cylinder set screw until you
perform task 12 on page 8.
Caution: A malfunction can occur if the cylinder is
threaded in too far.
