EasyKeys Replacement Key for Arctic Cat C50920 Instruction Manual

Introduction

This manual provides essential information for the proper identification and use of your EasyKeys Replacement Key, specifically for Arctic Cat C50920. This key is designed for Arctic Cat, Yamaha, and Suzuki vehicles within the C50000 - C59999 key series. Please read these instructions carefully to ensure correct usage and compatibility.

Setup: Identifying Your Lock Code

Before using your replacement key, it is crucial to verify that the lock code on your vehicle or existing key matches the C50920 code. The lock code determines the correct key for your lock. Incorrect codes will result in an incompatible key.

Image Description: This diagram illustrates common locations where you can find your vehicle's lock code. These include directly on an existing key, stamped on the face of the lock cylinder, on a label positioned inside or behind the lock mechanism, or on a label affixed to a cabinet or door associated with the lock. Identifying this code is essential for ensuring key compatibility.

How to Find Your Lock Code:

• On the Key: If you have an existing key, the code is often stamped directly onto the key blade or head.
• On the Lock Face: The code may be engraved or printed on the visible face of the lock cylinder itself.
• Inside/Behind the Lock: For some applications, the code might be on a label located inside the compartment or behind the lock assembly.
• On a Label: Check for labels on the vehicle's dashboard, glove compartment, or other relevant areas.

Important Notes:

• Lock codes are specific to the manufacturer. Ensure your code is within the C50000 - C59999 series for Arctic Cat, Yamaha, or Suzuki.
• Even if codes appear similar, key cuts vary significantly between brands. Always confirm the manufacturer.

Image Description: This image displays a typical replacement key. The key shown has "USA C52018" stamped on its head, indicating its specific code. Your EasyKeys C50920 key will have the corresponding C50920 code stamped on it, matching the design type shown.

Operating Instructions

Once you have confirmed your lock code matches C50920, using your replacement key is straightforward:

1. Insert the Key: Gently insert the key into the lock cylinder. Do not force it.
2. Turn the Key: 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 operated, turn the key back to its original position and remove it.

The key is custom-cut to match the C50920 code, ensuring a precise fit and smooth operation.

Maintenance

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

• Keep Clean: Periodically wipe the key with a dry cloth to remove dirt or debris.
• Avoid Bending: Do not use excessive force or attempt to bend the key, as this can damage its structure and render it unusable.
• Store Properly: Store the key in a safe place, away from extreme temperatures or corrosive materials.
• Lubrication: If the lock mechanism becomes stiff, apply a small amount of graphite lubricant to the lock cylinder, not directly to the key.

Troubleshooting

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

• Key Does Not Insert Fully:
  • Verify the lock code again. An incorrect code is the most common reason for incompatibility.
  • Check for obstructions in the lock cylinder (e.g., dirt, debris).
  • Ensure the key is oriented correctly.
• Key Inserts but Does Not Turn:
  • Confirm the lock code matches C50920 precisely.
  • The lock mechanism might be jammed or require lubrication. Try applying graphite lubricant to the lock.
  • Ensure the lock is not under tension (e.g., a door pushing against the frame).
• Key Feels Loose or Wobbly:
  • This could indicate wear on the lock cylinder or an incorrect key cut. Double-check the code.
