STEP 1 (Disassembly)
Snap the Assist Clip 4 in place over the edge of the door and over the lock area as shown in Diagram “1”. Remove the 2 existing screws (ref. “A” on Diagram 1) from the inside on the door lock unit. These 2 screws will not be used for reassembly, please discard. The inside portion of the lock remains in the door and is not to be removed during the handle installation.
STEP 2
Remove the Assist Clip 4 from the door (only temporarily). Remove the existing outside recessed handle from door (ref. “B” on Diagram 2) and discard as it will NOT be used for the reassembly.
STEP 3
Apply your new Handle-Man Handle Assembly (ref. item 5 in Diagram 3) to the outside of the door and position flush in the door cutout and re-apply Assist Clip 4 back on the door for the
final assembly step.
STEP 4 (Final Assembly)
With the Assist Clip 4 holding the inside half of lock and outside handle Assembly 5 in place apply interior handle 6, reference Diagram 4 for positioning, and begin applying mounting screws. Note, various screw lengths are provided in kit due to variations in door thicknesses.
VERT IMPORTANT TO FOLLOW THESE INTSTRUCTIONS!
Start with the #1 medium length (1-1/8″) screws and tighten to secure assembly. IMPORTANT, if screws are tightened, but assembly appears to still feel loose replace the #1 screws with #2 screws the shorter length (1″). BUT if #1 screw seems short with little thread engagement (appearing not long enough) replace with #3 Longer Length (1-1/4″) screws and tighten to secure assembly. Congratulation your new handle assembly is completed. Remove & Discard Assist Clip and enjoy your new handles!
