VIDEO: How do I Remove the Outside Lever on a Schlage ND12, ND12 EL/EU or ND30 function?

Resolution:

Below is the Written description of how to Install and Remove the Levers. Below the drawing are Links to Installation and Removal  Videos that cover both ND12 and ND30 products.

• Remove the lock from the door if already installed, as you will need to get access to the back side of the Outside Spring Cage, part D in the Diagram below.
• The Spring Cage with Lever attached will be need to be separated from the Chassis, part H in the Diagram, by removing the two Black screws part GG in the Diagram and separating the two parts.
• After you have separated the Spring Cage with Lever attached, turn the part around so you can see inside the back side of the Spring Cage.
• Inside you will see a White Nylon part, Part DD in the Diagram, called a Catch Stop. 
• The Catch Stop is spring loaded by the Spring Part CC and will need to be pushed in and rotated so the flat side is aligned with the Lever Catch located on the side of the Spring Cage.
• Then you can use your Pin Wrench to depress the Lever Catch and remove the Lever. 

• Installation is in the reverse order. Be sure to install the Spring before installing the Catch Stop and rotating it to block the Lever Catch.
