Cylinder
Removal
Instruc4on
Manual
2
This
manual
is
intended
to
instruct
the
user
on
how
to
remove
the
SmartKey
cylinder
from
knobs,
levers,
deadbolts
and
handlesets.
The
desire
to
do
this
will
most
likely
be
driven
by
the
need
to
reset
a
“blown”
cylinder.
A
blown
cylinder
occurs
when
the
SmartKey
rekeying
process
has
not
been
executed
properly,
or
a
faulty
key
was
used.
The
instrucAons
show
how
to
remove
the
cylinder,
followed
by
how
to
replace
the
cylinder
once
the
reset
cradle
has
been
used
to
remedy
the
blown
cylinder.
Use
of
the
reset
cradle
is
shown
at
the
end
of
this
document
for
convenience
along
with
instrucAons
on
how
to
rekey
SmartKey
cylinders.
A
cylinder
removal
tool
(see
below)
that
is
available
through
Weiser
sales
associates
is
preferred
to
remove
the
cylinders.
A
pair
of
grips
and
a
hex
wrench
(supplied
with
product)
is
all
else
that
is
required.
