THE CUTTING OPERATION

Aligning keys in the vise jaws
Keys with shoulders
WARNING: Do not install or remove keys unless the
off/on switch is in the off position.
Both the pattern key and the key blank must be properly
aligned and securely clamped in the vise jaws. To do this,
slide the machines’ carriage assembly towards the right
and position the appropriate key blank in the carriage’s
RIGHT vise jaw with the head of the blank pointing to
the left.
Ensure that the shoulder of the key blank is located
approximately
1
⁄
8
” to the left of the vise jaw‘s left edge.
Holding the key blank firmly and level against the jaw,
tighten the wing nut. Position the pattern key in the
carriage‘s LEFT vise jaw in a similar manner only this
time allowing a
1
⁄
4
” gap between the shoulder of the key
and the edge of the vise jaw.
Next lower the key gauge and position the carriage so
that the left edge of the gauge’s RIGHT prong contacts
the edge of the key blank’s shoulder (see fig. 4A).
Loosen the wing nut securing the pattern key and
reposition the key so that its shoulder is in contact with
the left edge of the LEFT prong of the key gauge.
Check to ensure that the pattern key and blank key‘s
shoulders are snug against the key gauge and both keys
positioned level (not tilted) in the vise jaws. Retighten the
wing nut.
Aligning keys in the vise jaws
Keys without shoulders
On keys such as the Ford double-sided key, which do not
have conventional shoulder, the tip of the key is used as
the aligning point (see Fig. 4B). Clamp the blank key in
first and move the machine carriage to the left. Lower the
key gauge and position the carriage so the tip of the Ford
key touches the key gauge. Install and align the pattern
key in the left vise jaw in the same manner.
“Best” and “Falcon” type keys do not have a
conventional shoulder but have a recessed tip and the
key gauge is used to align the recessed tips. After
clamping the blank key, the carriage is moved to the left
so that the key gauge can be lowered to contact the
recessed tip surface. The pattern key is aligned in the left
vise jaw and positioned to contact the edge of the key
gauge in the same manner (see Fig. 4C).
