Disassembly Procedures
Locking
Tabs
Felt
Seal
Note: When reinstalling, the seal will be mounted to
the tumbler front in a counterclockwise rotation.
Start at the 3:00 position and place under the
locking tabs. The seal will overlap 1 1/4". The
coated side (which is the lighter of the two
colors) goes against the tumbler. The felt seal is
then looped in a "U-shape” so that the lighter-
colored side is against the tumbler front as it is
slid in place under the tabs. Bend tabs back
over the felt seal with a flat blade screwdriver.
