BERNA SIMPLY

KEY CUTTING MACHINE

English

RISKS RELATED TO THE INSTALLATION LOCATION

The location where the machine is installed may present risks that could impact correct

operation of the machine (temperature, humidity, rain, etc.)

ELECTRICAL RISK

Given that the machine is fitted with electrical devices, a risk of electrocution exists if

a fault were to occur. The electrical power cord should be fitted with suitable control

and protection devices (thermal magnetic circuit breaker and differential circuit breaker).

MECHANICAL RISK

The machine is fitted with tools (cutter and tracer) that are necessary for key duplication.

The operator should therefore be careful in order to prevent cutting their hands when

duplicating keys or replacing the tools.

The operator should avoid wearing necklaces, bracelets, rings and/or clothing that could

become trapped in the machine or get caught up in the moving parts.

We recommend wearing a cap to cover and contain your hair, especially for those ope-

rators with long hair.

3. INSTALLATION AND PREPARATION OF THE

MACHINE

Installation of this machine presents no difficulty whatsoever, but you should not attempt to ins-

tall, adjust or operate the machine without reading this user manual first. The machine leaves

our factory ready for use and only needs to be calibrated for the tools that are going to be used.

3.1 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS IN THE WORKSHOP

• The machine should be used in places with an ambient temperature of between 0º and 40º C,

a relative humidity of less than 50-60% and good lighting so that it can be used and maintained

correctly.

Use of the machine in explosive atmospheres or in the presence of flammable liquids or

gases is strictly prohibited.

3.2 CHARACTERISTICS OF THE LOCATION FOR INSTALLA-

TION

• Place the machine on a solid horizontal work surface capable of properly supporting its weight

15 kg).

• The height of the work bench should be adapted to the height of the operator. The machine

should be at the same height as the pelvis of the operator.

• We recommend leaving 30 cm of free space around the machine for normal use and mainte-

nance.

The voltage connected to the machine should be the same as that connected to the works-

hop and the workshop should have an Earthing connection and differential circuit breaker.

3.3 PREPARATION OF THE MACHINE

After positioning the machine on the work bench, the parts that come packaged separately will

need to be assembled by the customer as follows:

• The machine can be secured to the work bench using the anchoring tool included with the

accessories. Follow the steps below to secure the machine:

See Figure 3

Switch off the machine and unplug the power cord.

1) Very carefully roll the machine onto its rear side.

2) Attach the tool (E) to the machine using the two screws (U) included with the accessories.

3) Roll the machine back upright and secure it to the work bench using the grooves at the ends

of the tool.

• Screw the control lever into the carriage assembly

• Connect the power cord to the electrical power supply.

The main parts of the machine are listed below:
see Figures 1A and 1B

1. Cutter: The cutter is made from high-speed steel (HSS).
2. Tracer: Specifically designed to read the key coding.
3. Clamps: the clamps can be rotated to one of four sides, enabling different key models to be

secured in place. See Section 4.4.3
4. Knob for releasing/locking the clamp: The clamps are locked in place using two ergonomi-

cally designed knobs.
5. Carriage assembly: This is fitted with two clamps.
6. Carriage assembly control lever. This is used to move the carriage assembly.
7. Stopper positioning handle: The stoppers are used to position and align the key.
8. Tracer depth adjustment control: This is used for depth adjustment using the knob in cen-

tesimal steps.
9. Brush: This is used to remove any burr that may have formed during duplication.
10. Swarf tray.
11. Tray for keys, accessories, etc.
12. Handles for lifting the machine:

Always use the handles when lifting the machine and never lift it using any other parts.

13. Power switch:

The machine is on when the light is on.

14. Transparent protective shield: provides protection from the cutter
15. Plug:

The plug is fitted with a 6A/220V fuse that protects against any potential faults in the

electrical circuit.

16. Motor housing:
Transmission from the motor takes place via a belt that moves the cutter and the brush. these

components are protected within the motor housing.
