The exit device further includes a pushbar assembly including a drive assembly and a latch control assembly operably coupled with the drive assembly such that the drive assembly is operable to actuate the latch control assembly. A self-adjusting coupling assembly operably connects the transmission assembly with the latch control assembly. The self-adjusting coupling assembly includes a lift finger movably mounted to a movable component of the latch control assembly, and a spring urging the lift finger into contact with a transmission of the transmission assembly. A first fastener selectively secures the first lift finger to the first movable component.
