positions 3, 5, and 7.
10. Check for correct loading by holding the tumblers (3) in position and fully inserting the matching key into the cylinder assembly (1). All tumblers
and the sidebar should be flush with the outside diameter of the cylinder assembly.
11. Lightly lubricate the tumbler (3) surfaces and the small detent recess on the side of the cylinder assembly (1) using the lubrication provided.
12. With the matching key fully inserted into the coded cylinder assembly, rotate the cylinder so that the side with the retaining pin (4) hole is facing
upward.
13. Insert one retaining pin spring (5) and then one retaining pin (4) into the hole located behind the 4 tumblers. The retaining pin spring and retaining
pin are not self-retaining and must be held in place until the coded cylinder is installed into the case assembly (6).
Caution: Wear safety glasses in order to avoid eye damage.
14. With the matching key fully inserted into the coded cylinder assembly and the retaining pin (4) fully depressed into the cylinder, align the retaining
lug on the cylinder with the groove on the inside diameter of the case assembly (6). This groove extends the full length of the case assembly.
15. Install the coded cylinder assembly into the case assembly (6) being careful to hold the retaining pin spring (5) and retaining pin (4) in the cylinder
until the retaining pin spring and retaining pin enter the case assembly. With the cylinder fully inserted into the case assembly, rotate the cylinder
counterclockwise until the retaining pin snaps into place limiting the rotation of the cylinder assembly.
16. With the coded cylinder assembly in the Off-Lock position, insert the detent ball (7), if equipped, and detent spring (8) into the hole in the side of
the case assembly (6). Install the anti-rattle spring (9) into the case assembly over the detent spring. The anti-rattle spring should capture the detent
ball and spring in the case assembly. Make sure both ends of the anti-rattle spring (9) are fully seated, pressed into, the case assembly.
17. Remove the matching key and install the ignition cylinder bezel (10) onto the case assembly (6). Make sure the retaining clips of the ignition
cylinder bezel are correctly positioned and fully snapped onto the case assembly.
