To remove the door, remove the cap and lower the pin in the intermediate pivot, if used.
If the pin will not lower, remove the screws from the frame portion. Open the door to 90˚
and depress and rotate the pin toward the pivot edge of the door to lock in the retaining
pin as shown in Figure #12. After the top pivot pin is clear from the frame portion, the
intermediate pivot will slide free from the frame. See Figure #12.
The top pivot will be attached to the door stile and requires no adjustment after the door
has been set into the frame. All adjustments to the door are by the intermediate offset
pivot if used, and the bottom offset pivot. To set the door, depress the top pivot pin and
hold down with your index finger. Place the door portion of the bottom pivot onto the
frame portion of the bottom pivot. Align the pin in the door portion of the top pivot with the
hole in the frame portion of the top pivot and release the pin as shown in Figure #11.
NOTE: If an intermediate offset pivot is used, retract the pin in the frame portion of the
intermediate pivot before releasing the pin in the top pivot. Use a flat screwdriver to
remove the cap on the bottom of the intermediate pivot and turn the pin counterclockwise
to lower. See page 13, Step #16 for details.
