Re: American 3700 core question

I know there are books and catalogs but a concise guide would be useful. Also, if someone could direct me to the large terminology post that would be great

Re: American 3700 core question

the American Lock service manual is going to be your best bet.

Innerpicked: The more keys you carry, the more important you look

Re: American 3700 core question

I am aware that the tailpiece will not work, I already knew that I would have to order a driver for it, I am pretty sure i know which driver I need for the Medeco core, that picture was to show if I had the correct lock cylinder or not

Re: American 3700 core question

You will need a cylinder for Schlage that has a screw-on cap.

Re: American 3700 core question

In the service manual there are two drivers, one for Medeco series 20 cylinders, and another for an assortment of Schlage, Medeco
and Lori 1539, the one I purchased should fall under one of those right? Medeco 20 series driver looks like it is for a screw on cap and the other one has a notch I'm the sides where it looks like a snap ring goes around the plug and the driver, I'm not sure though

Re: American 3700 core question

I did see that, it looks like the one for a core with a screw on end cap, could this be the one for the core that uses a snap ring?

That is the driver the American service manual says is for the other Medeco core style
