Nova 2000 Supplemental Operation Manual

WARNING - SAFETY NOTICE

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ CAREFULLY 

BEFORE OPERATING MACHINE

Safety begins with education, and continues with proper application … 

ALL

per-

sonnel who operate this machine should 

READ THE SUPPLIED OPERATOR’S

MANUAL 

for information on how to properly operate the Nova 2000.  The like-

lihood of accidents and miscuts will be greatly reduced.

General Safety:

Safety glasses 

MUST BE WORN 

to reduce the possibility of eye injury

while operating or in the immediate vicinity of key cutting equipment.

Always 

turn machine off

before making adjustment or inserting or removing keys.

Machine should be located in an area accessible only by 

authorized oper-

ators

. Location must be such that customers and other personnel are not

subject to potential injury from “flying chips”.

Do not defeat safety features built into the machine. Removal or modifica-
tion of safety shields, cutter guards and other safety devices should be
strictly forbidden.

At no time

should the mechanically driven parts of the machine be

touched while it is in operation. Extra care should also be taken by the
operator to ensure that loose fitting clothing, long hair, etc. are kept from
the area of machine operation.

Your machine has been specifically designed and built for key cutting purposes
only and should be operated according to its operator’s manual. All other uses
are strongly discouraged as they could be potentially hazardous, and should not
be attempted? Such use will immediately void the machine warranty.

Some states have specific age restrictions concerning the operation of cer-
tain types of equipment. Check local and state ordinances for compliance.

Electrical Safety:

(120 volt models)  Your machine is designed to operate using 120 Volt AC,
60 Hz electrical current. It is supplied with a three-prong power plug which
should be used with a properly grounded three-prong outlet only. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying or using with non-
grounded outlets.

To reduce risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose or operate machine
in damp or wet locations.

Electrical problems should be referred to qualified repair technicians. If the
machine is under warrant, contact Kaba Ilco Corp. (Kaba Ilco Corp. also
offers repair service for out-of-warranty machines.  Contact for details.)

Always unplug the machine before opening the hood or changing the cutter.
