CALIBRATION
:
Axis calibration is regulation of the cutting space on the key (fig.12, pag.14). Proceed as follows:
1) Turn off the master switch (C) to operate safely and prevent activation of the cutting tool.
2) Place the adjusting key in the clamps (fig.18) with the notch facing the cutting tool and tracer point and
proceed as follows:
a) ensure that the keys adhere to the clamp and that the callipers (K) are in full contact with the
stops.
b) to take the callipers into contact with the keys, rotate the drum (R) towards you (away from
you to return to the idle position).
ATTENTION: the carriage will be released only if the callipers are in the ideal position.
3) Release the carriage by lowering the knob (V) and pressing the push button (Q) right down (fig. 16,
page 16).
4) Move the adjusting key so that the notch comes into contact with the cutting tool (A) and tracer point
(B).
5) Turn the cutting tool one full turn by hand in the opposite direction to rotation.
6) Check that the cutting tool skims the two sides of the notch.
7) If necessary, regulate the micrometric tracer point, as follows:
a) loosen the screw (J1) to move the tracer point (fig. 15, page 15).
b) move the tracer point (B1) to the side by loosening or tightening the screw (B2).
c) when skimming is satisfactory (point 5), tighten the screw (J1) all the way, without exerting
pressure.
8) Lower the carriage by means of the handle (V) (it will engage automatically).
9) Remove the adjusting key.
ATTENTION: when adjusting keys have been repeatedly scratched by the cutting tool, they must be replaced.
They can be replaced by two identical key blanks.
