Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This padlock is designed for immediate use. Simply insert a key into the cylinder and turn it to open the shackle. Close the shackle and turn the key to lock.
Compatibility:
The padlock is compatible with any hasp or locking point that can accommodate its shackle size and dimensions (40mm width, 23mm depth). Ensure the gap in the hasp is sufficient for the shackle to pass through.
Care:
- Keep the keyhole free from debris. A puff of compressed air can be used if necessary.
- Avoid exposing the lock to extreme conditions for prolonged periods. While the zinc plating offers protection, excessive moisture can lead to corrosion over time.
- Periodically test the lock with its key to ensure the mechanism remains free-moving. If it feels stiff, a small amount of graphite lubricant (dry lubricant) can be applied to the keyhole.
