VISE JAW REPLACEMENT

Vise jaws (cartridges) are replaced in pairs as an assembly, a matched set consisting of (one top jaw

and one bottom jaw), you will need two sets for your key machine. You will disassemble and re-

install the old plungers, springs, and screws. Or you can buy a complete set with the plunger, top

jaw, bottom jaw, screws and springs. Simply drop the (cartridges) in place, you will need two

cartridges.

Coat  all  steel  sliding  surfaces  with  a  light  coating  of  grease  when  installing  the  vises.

TOP SHOULDER  KEY GAUGING

Standard cylinder keys should always be top shoulder gauged.  Use the machine’s full-function flip-

up key gauges.  We do not recommend bottom shoulder gauging because key blank manufacturers

do not always maintain a reliable correlation between bottom and top shoulder positions on the key

blanks they make.

Always remember to flip DOWN your key gauges before cutting a key.  Failure to do will prevent your key

machine from cutting the key.
