INSTALLATION & OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY IGNITION BLOCK
This is a positive device that assures that manipulation of
the ignition key switch to the “LOCK” position must be
intentional. It is provided for your safety and is to be
installed on the steering column housing as directed by
these instructions. Its purpose is to prevent accidental
locking of the steering column when vehicle is in motion.
Ignition key operation after installation of the Ignition Block
is different only at the “OFF” position of the key switch. Key
switch can be turned from LOCK to IGNITION simply by
turning the key switch. The angle of the blade causes it to
slide out of the way automatically. The blade of the Ignition
Block must be retracted before the key switch can be turned
back to “LOCK” position. The location of the installation
depends on the space allowed near switch. Mount the
Ignition Block above key switch if practical. Mount it below
key switch, if necessary. The drawings on this page show
the two mounting positions. The directions for mounting
follow on this page.
1. Rotate the ignition switch to OFF position to determine
location for mounting. The OFF position can be detected
by feeling when it is reached. Place the Ignition Block
in position where the straight edge of the blade will be
in position to obstruct rotation of key switch past OFF
position to return back to LOCK position. Switch will be
free to turn from OFF to ON, and to START positions. The
Ignition Block must be mounted so that the tip of the
blade is far enough beyond the ear of the ignition key
switch to cause positive obstruction.
2. Hold Ignition Block in the position determined in
paragraph 1, and use the mounting holes as guides for
drilling holes in steering column housing. Use a #32
drill (number drill - .116” diameter) to drill two holes to
a depth of 9/32”. Do not drill deeper than 9/32” deep.
3. Fasten Ignition Block to column housing. Two different
spacers are supplied with Ignition Block. Use the thin
foam spacer when Ignition Block is installed above the
ignition key switch - use the thicker plastic spacer when
installing below the ignition key switch. The shorter
screws supplied are used when Ignition Block is mounted
above the key switch with the thin foam spacer. The
longer screws are used with the thicker plastic spacer.
The screws are self-tapping. Use slight pressure to start
cutting thread with the first turn of screwdriver only.
Simply rotate screws through remaining depth of holes.
CAUTION
DO NOT TIGHTEN SCREWS EXCESSIVELY AS THE
STEERING COLUMN HOUSING IS SOFT.
