Master Lock 2022 Replacement Keys: Instruction Manual

Introduction

This manual provides essential information for the proper use and care of your EasyKeys Master Lock 2022 Replacement Keys. These keys are designed to replace lost or damaged keys for Master Lock products requiring the 2022 key code. Please read this manual thoroughly to ensure correct identification and usage of your replacement keys.

Each purchase includes two (2) Master Lock 2022 Replacement Keys and a complimentary Eco Lips Peppermint Buzz Lip Balm.

Setup and Key Identification

Accurate identification of your lock's key code is crucial for the replacement keys to function correctly. The key code for these replacement keys is "2022".

Identifying Your Lock Code:

• From an Existing Key: The key code is typically stamped directly onto the original key. Verify that your existing key has "2022" stamped on it.
• From Original Packaging: If you still have the original packaging for your Master Lock, the key code may be printed on it.
• Important Note: The key code is NOT found on the padlock itself. Attempting to use a number from the padlock will result in incorrect key identification.

Figure 1: Example of a Master Lock key. Note the key code (e.g., "2001") stamped on the key head. Your replacement key will have "2022" stamped.

Once you have confirmed your lock requires the "2022" key code, your replacement keys are ready for use.

Operating Instructions

Using your Master Lock 2022 Replacement Keys is straightforward:

1. Insert the Key: Gently insert the replacement key into the keyway of your Master Lock. Ensure the key is oriented correctly.
2. Turn to Operate: Turn the key clockwise (or counter-clockwise, depending on the lock mechanism) to unlock or lock the device. The key should turn smoothly without excessive force.
3. Remove the Key: Once the lock is operated, turn the key back to its original position and remove it.

Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and proper function of your replacement keys:

• Keep Clean: Periodically wipe the keys with a dry cloth to remove dirt or debris.
• Avoid Bending: Do not apply excessive force or attempt to bend the keys, as this can damage them and render them unusable.
• Store Safely: Store keys in a dry, safe place to prevent loss or damage.
• Lubrication (for lock): If your lock mechanism becomes stiff, apply a small amount of graphite lubricant specifically designed for locks into the keyway, not directly onto the key.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your replacement keys, consider the following:

Key Does Not Fit or Turn:

• Incorrect Key Code: The most common reason for a key not working is an incorrect key code. Double-check that your lock truly requires a "2022" key. Refer to the "Setup and Key Identification" section.
• Obstruction in Keyway: Inspect the lock's keyway for any foreign objects, dirt, or debris that might be preventing the key from fully inserting or turning.
• Damaged Key: Examine the replacement key for any visible damage, such as bends, nicks, or broken teeth. A damaged key will not function correctly.
• Lock Malfunction: The issue might be with the lock itself, not the key. If other keys for the same lock also fail, the lock mechanism may be faulty.

If troubleshooting steps do not resolve the issue, please contact customer support for further assistance.
