It is recommended that you follow these steps when converting lacers with serial numbers 3500-59999 if you will be using the 3- layer
face strip exclusively. If both the 3-layer and 2-layer face strips will be used, you may use the 3- layer Face Strip with the Locking
Lever(s) and Backup Bar Assembly in place but not engaged. Both of the Face Strip Retaining Latches will need to be installed.
