CUTTING KEYS
After the code has been determined from the code list or the key code diagram, perform the following steps:
1. Cut a blank key to the proper level of each of the tumbler positions.
2. Inspect the key operation in the lock cylinder.


SIDE DOOR LOCK CYLINDER CODING
The side door lock cylinder has five snap-in tumblers. The number 1-5 positions (beginning closest to the cylinder head) is a brass retainer tumbler. The 6-10 positions are standard tumbler positions. Therefore, only the 6-10 positions are required.
