2. Key Identification and Setup

Before using your new replacement keys, it is crucial to verify that the W604 code matches the lock you intend to open. Lock codes are specific to manufacturers and ensure proper fit and function. Keys for alternate manufacturers such as Lorell, Office Depot, Office Max, Realspace, Staples, and Wind Danbury Ct may appear similar but require different key cuts.

Finding Your Lock Code:

• On the Original Key: The code is often stamped directly on the key head.
• On the Lock Face: The code may be visible on the front surface of the lock cylinder.
• Inside/Behind the Lock: For some locks, the code is located on a label or stamped directly on the lock mechanism, requiring access to the interior of the furniture.
• On the Cabinet/Door Label: Some furniture items have a label with the lock code affixed to the cabinet or door itself.

3. Operating Instructions

To operate your lock with the W604 replacement key:

1. Gently insert the key into the lock cylinder. Do not force the key.
2. Turn the key clockwise or counter-clockwise (depending on the lock mechanism) to engage or disengage the lock.
3. Remove the key once the lock is in the desired position.

4. Maintenance

Regular lubrication can extend the life of your lock and ensure smooth key operation. Your purchase includes a 1 cc packet of Super Lube Multi-Purpose Synthetic Grease with Syncolon, which is suitable for lubricating lock mechanisms.

Lubrication Steps:

1. Apply a small amount of Super Lube to the key blade.
2. Insert the lubricated key into the lock and turn it several times to distribute the lubricant within the mechanism.
3. Wipe off any excess lubricant from the key and the lock face.

Perform this maintenance periodically, especially if the lock feels stiff or difficult to turn.

5. Troubleshooting

• Key does not insert fully: Ensure the key code matches your lock. Check for any obstructions in the keyway. Do not force the key.
• Key inserts but does not turn: Verify the key code is correct. The lock mechanism may be stiff; apply lubricant as described in the Maintenance section. If the lock is damaged, it may require professional service.
• Lock is still difficult to operate after lubrication: The lock mechanism might be worn or damaged. Consider consulting a locksmith or contacting customer support for further assistance.
