Reinstall the handle

  1. Loosen the set screw on the outside handle.
  2. Adjust the spindle at least 5 mm to find a new spot for the set screw to pierce the spindle.
    Note: Do not turn or rotate the spindle in any way, because it can only be pierced on one side.
  3. Tighten the set screw on the outside handle. The resistance increases steadily until the screw pierces the spindle.
    Note: In the final position, the head of the set screw is slightly above the handle surface.
  4. Push the handle with the spindle attached to it into place on the outside of the door.
    Pierce the plastic in the lock case with the spindle.
  5. Push the second handle into place on the inside of the door.
  6. Reinstall the screw at the center of the handle from the inside of the door.
    Note: Check that the cover plate is positioned straight.
  7. Install the remaining screws in the vacant holes from the inside of the door.
    Note: Check that the handle is positioned straight.
    Note: Do not overtighten the screws. If you overtighten the screws, the lock latch gets stuck.
  8. Tighten the set screw on the inside handle.
    The resistance increases steadily until the screw pierces the spindle. You can feel the resistance stop when the set screw pierces the spindle.
    Note: In the final position, the head of the set screw is slightly above the handle surface.
