Installing handle and screwing on
If you cannot attach the handle by screwing all the way through, you can
screw the assembly profiles on the outside and inside onto the door leaf with
two short screws.
Apart from this, assembly occurs in the same way as described in the previous
section.
The short screws which are supplied are only suitable for metal doors
with p
re-cut M5 threads. You can obtain suitable screws for doors made
of different material via specialist retailers.
The screws must be of the same length as the screws supplied and the
heads must be uniform. The head of the short screw must be wider than
the
drill hole (5.5 mm). It may have a maximum diameter of 9.8 mm and
mm.
Consult a specialist retailer for advice about suitable short screws for
your door.
You can pre-drill the screwing points in order to guarantee safe
screwing.
You must attach the spindle on the handle and align the lever handle prior to
attaching the handle.
The alignment of the lever handle on the handle is described from
page
58 onwards.
The attachment of the spindle is described from page
63 onwards.
The attachment of the spindle with reducing bushes is described from
page 66 onwards.
Always install the lever handle fittings/rosettes first for two-part handles. Only
install the cylinder rosettes once the lever handle fittings/rosettes have been
installed.
It is possible to damage the surface of the lever handle when
removing the cover.
Do not use any force when removing covers from handles.
Twist the cover round the lever handle while pulling it off in
order to avoid contact.
