Depth calibration:
Depth calibration is regulation of the cutting depth (Fig.12). Proceed as follows:
1) Ensure that the key-cutting machine is off by unplugging the power cable.
2) Place the adjustment keys (provided) on the clamps (Fig.14).
3) Check that the adjustment plates adhere properly to the clamps.
4) Turn the calibration rod towards the operator so that the gauges (Q1) into contact with the adjusting plates
5) Lower the gauge rod.
Fig.14
6) Raise the carriage and take up to the cutting tool.
7) Take the keys into contact with the cutting tool and tracer point (Fig.15).
8) Turn the cutting tool anticlockwise manually and check that it skims the adjusting keys in several places
9) If necessary, regulate the depth of the cut with the micrometric tracer point, as follows:
a) loosen the screw (E1) holding the tracer point.
b) turn the ring nut (G) clockwise to advance the tracer point (Fig.16).
c) turn the ring nut (G) anticlockwise to return (Fig.17).
NOTE: each notch on the centesimal ring corresponds to 0,025 mm (Fig.15).
10) Repeat these operations until regulation is complete, then tighten the tracer point locking grub screw (E1).
