gauging.

4.6.1 A
XIAL GAUGING ON BIT
/
DOUBLE BIT KEYS
Axial gauging is regulation of the spaces for the cuts on the key (fig. 14).
Checking axial gauging:
1) Turn the machine off and unplug it.
2) Use the knob (S) to lock the right-hand clamp in a horizontal position.
3) Use the handles (P) and (P1) to close the clamps.
4) Lock the tracer point spring.
5) Use the lever (L) to raise the carriage and take the stops (J) for double bit keys up against the right-hand side
of the tracer point and cutter (fig. 15).
The ideal situation is when the internal part of the left-hand stop is up against the right-hand side of the tracer point
and the internal part of the right-hand stop is in contact with the right-hand side of the cutter.
If this is not so, loosen the screw (D2) and use a screwdriver to regulate the screw (D4) (fig. 16) until the ideal
situation is reached.
