MACHINE INSTALLATION AND PREPARATION
The key-cutting machine can be installed by the purchaser and does not require any special skills; some checks
and preparation for use operations have to be carried out by the operator.
3.1
Checking for damage
TECHNICA EU 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.
3.2
Positioning
1) Place the machine on a horizontal surface,
solid enough to take its weight.
2) to facilitate operation the workbench height
should be about 100 cm.
3) we recommend leaving clearance of at least 20
cm behind the machine and on each side to
ensure proper ventilation and handling.
4) check that the weight of the machine is evenly
distributed over the four feet.
5) connect the machine power supply cable to the
mains.
ATTENTION: ensure that the machine voltage is the same
as that of the mains, which must be properly
earthed and provided with a differential
switch.
