SAFETY FIRST

Do not attempt to operate this machine until you have read thoroughly and understand completely all 
instructions, rules, etc.  contained in this manual.  Failure to comply can result in accidents involving fire, 
electric shock, or serious personal injury. 

        

SAFETY RULES 

A) Know your machine.  Read owner’s manual carefully.    Learn its applications and limitations as well

as specific operational hazards peculiar to this machine.

B) Guard against electrical shock by preventing body contact with grounded surfaces.

Examples:  Pipes and metal work tops.

C) Keep guards in place at all times.

D) Keep your work area clean.  Cluttered areas and benches invite accidents.

E) Avoid dangerous environment.  Don’t use this machine in damp or wet locations.  Keep your work

area will lit.

F) Keep children away.  All visitors should be kept safe distance from work area.  Do not let visitors

contact machine or power cord.

G) Do not force the machine.  It will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it was designed.

Always maintain a sharp cutter wheel on the machine.

H) Use the machine for what it was designed.  Don’t use the machine for anything but the key blanks for

which it was intended.

I)

Wear proper apparel.  For example:  No loose clothing or jewelry to get caught in moving parts.  Long
hair.  Operators without properly restrained long hair MUST

 NOT

 operate any type of machinery,

including key machines.  Long hair can get caught in moving (rotating) machinery parts.

J) Use safety glasses.  Flying chips, improperly secured key blanks and broken cutter wheel teeth can

injure the eye if not properly protected.

K) Don’t abuse cord.  Never yank cord to disconnect from receptacle.  Keep cord from heat, oil and sharp

edges.  Never remove the ground connection from the plug.  If you use a two-wire adapter be sure to
properly connect the ground wire.  

NEVER CUT OFF THE GROUND TERMINAL FROM THE

MACHINE’S POWER PLUG!

L) Secure keys properly in vises.  Don’t hold key head for support when cutting.  If it doesn’t clamp

properly, don’t try to cut it!
