- Start with the lock cilinder. And fill the holes with the pins 1 to 5. 1 is furhters away from the gear. 5 is closest to the gear. The pointy side schould be down, the slightly rounded side should be up. The pins should move without to much resistance.
- To check if the pins are inserted correctly, carefully slide in the key. The pins should lay flush with the cilinder. Remove the key.
- Slide the cilinder in the cilinder housing. The holes alligned.

- Place the small spring (P09) over the shaft.
- Lock in place with the c-ring
