Latch Replacement

The latch replacement assembly is part of the small mechanical part FRU kit.

1. The base plate of the positioner has two covers that protect the slot and base of each latch. Using a flat-blade screwdriver, remove the plastic screws that attach the slot cover to the base plate of the positioner.

2. Remove the old latch by removing the brass screw on the bottom of the latch. The brass screw was seated with Loctite, so you must turn the screwdriver firmly to break the adhesive.

   1. Open the latch lever to the unlocked position (oriented 180 degrees to the lock position).
