ATTENTION: the knobs are gauged so that they do not exert too much
pressure for closing (if pressure is too high they only idle), which would
damage the key and the parts of the clamp (including the knob).
To turn the clamps:
With loosened handle (E) a light rotation of the clamp is sufficient
(gripping by the 2 jaws) to turn it to the required side. Alignment is
automatic and guaranteed by the mobile pressure device (D5) (fig. 13).

Note: before starting to cut a key the V100 clamp gauge goes automatically to the idle position so there is no need to
lower it, but the R100 clamp gauge must be lowered manually.

THE
PINS
Copying with the optical reader
For keys with narrow stems the pins must be placed between the bottom of
the clamp and the back of the key so that the key protrudes sufficiently out of
the clamp and therefore can be properly read and cut.
If the key has a narrow stem and is also very thin, 2 pins must be used (fig.
14).
Fig. 14
If the original key is broken, place a suitable sized pin in the groove of the keys stem so that it is properly held in place
and therefore can be copied (fig. 15).
Note: the diameter of the pin used for the original key must be the same as that of the pin used for the blank key; only
in this way will the two keys be locked in the same position.
