3. Usage Instructions

To use your Wesko W159 replacement key:

1. Gently insert the key into the lock cylinder, ensuring the bitting (cut edge) aligns with the keyway.
2. Apply steady, gentle pressure while turning the key clockwise or counter-clockwise, depending on the lock mechanism, to engage or disengage the lock.
3. Avoid forcing the key if it does not turn smoothly. Forcing can damage both the key and the lock.
4. Once the lock is operated, remove the key.

4. Maintenance

Proper care can extend the life of your key and lock:

• Keep Keys Clean: Periodically wipe your key with a soft, dry cloth to remove dirt or debris.
• Avoid Bending: Store keys in a manner that prevents them from bending or being subjected to excessive pressure.
• Lubrication (for locks): If a lock becomes stiff, a small amount of graphite lubricant or a specialized lock lubricant can be applied to the lock cylinder, not directly to the key. Consult a locksmith if unsure.
• Duplicate Keys: If you need additional copies, use a reputable locksmith to ensure accurate duplication.

5. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your replacement key:

• Key Does Not Insert Fully: Check for obstructions in the lock keyway. Ensure the key is oriented correctly.
• Key Inserts but Does Not Turn: Verify that the key code (W159) matches the lock code. The lock mechanism might be jammed or damaged. Do not force the key.
• Key Feels Loose or Wobbly: This could indicate wear on the key or the lock cylinder. Consider having the lock inspected by a professional.
• Key Breaks in Lock: This typically requires professional locksmith assistance for removal and lock repair or replacement.

For persistent issues, it is recommended to consult a qualified locksmith or contact EasyKeys customer support.
