9 MAINTENANCE
ATTENTION: for repairs or replacement of parts for maintenance, the ‘CE’ mark is guaranteed only
if original spare parts provided by the manufacturer are used.
Although the key-cutting machine does not require special maintenance, it is advisable to check and, if necessary,
replace the parts subject to wear, such as: the belt, cutting tool, brush, tracer point. Replacement is simple and can
be carried out by the operator.
CLEANING
Keep the carriage and clamps free of chippings from the cutting operations by cleaning with a dry brush.
ATTENTION: do not use compressed air!
ATTENTION: to keep the machine well maintained we recommend using protective oil, e.g. WD40
or similar, applied to the burnished mechanical parts. This prevents oxidation of the parts in
question (clamps, guides, carriages...).
Before starting any type of maintenance (checks or replacements), read the instructions below:
• Never carry out maintenance or servicing with the machine switched on.
• Always remove the mains plug.
• Follow all the instructions in the manual to the letter.
• Use original spare parts.
• Always check that any screws or nuts removed when replacing a piece are properly tightened.

ATTENTION: turn off the machine and unplug.
To remove and install the carriage see the instructions in chap.5.6 and chapters 5.5.4, 5.5.5, 5.5.6 and 5.5.7.
1) Fit the new carriage into the dovetail seat and slide all the way up to the limit switch. Secure by tightening the
handle (F).
2) Check machine calibration (chap.7.5).
9.2 Replacing the tracer point
Proceed as follows to replace the tracer point (D):
ATTENTION: turn off the machine and unplug.
1) Enable the tracer point spring function (chap.7.2).
2) Loosen the screw (D3).
3) Remove the worn tracer point.
4) Fit the new tracer point, pushing all the way in.
5) Tighten the screw (D3).
