A. Lubrication and cleaning

1. Each Airlock is well lubricated at the time of assembly. However, all lubricants deteriorate eventually and need replacing on a regularly scheduled basis in order to prevent equipment failure. Airteq Systems recommends cleaning and lubricating each type of lock according to the following instructions approximately every (2) years. (Yearly for locks in high use areas).

9400 SERIES LOCK:
Remove the side cover plate and lubricate the angled ramp surface on the sideplate that the deadlatch bolt dowel pin rides against. Lubricate the stop side of the deadlatch bolt (back side). When replacing the side cover, be sure the lever of the lock status switch is not trapped under the retainer plate or actuator. The lower lock mechanism should be checked and cleaned once a year (or more often if special conditions exist) for accumulated dirt and other debris that would interfere with proper operation. Lubrication of upper lock mechanism is not necessary nor recommended.
