MACHINE INSTALLATION AND PREPARATION
The key-cutting machine can be installed by the purchaser and does not require any special skills.
However, some checks and preparation for use need to be carried out by the operator.
5.1
Checking for damage
The CROWN key-cutting machine is solid and compact and will not normally damage if transport,
unpacking and installation have all been carried out according to the instructions in this manual.
However, it is always advisable to check that the machine has not suffered any damage.
5.2
Environmental conditions
To ensure that the best use is made of the CROWN key-cutting machine, certain parameters must be
borne in mind:
-
damp, badly ventilated sites should be avoided.
-
the ideal conditions for the machine are:
- temperature: between 0 and 40˚C
- relative humidity: approx 60%
5.3
Positioning
Place the machine on a horizontal surface, solid enough to take the weight (16 Kg).
To facilitate operation and maintenance, install the machine with a clearance of at least 200 mm on all
sides (fig. 4).
Check that the weight of the machine is evenly distributed over the four feet; horizontal positioning
prevents vibrations during operation.
WARNING:
ensure that the machine voltage is the same as that of the mains, which must be properly
earthed and provided with a differential switch.
