8.3 Cutting keys with centre stop
1) Use the lever (Q) to lock the right-hand clamp in the horizontal position.
2) Loosen the clamp handles slightly to be able to fi t the keys.
3) Fit the original key into the left-hand clamp with the centre stop up against the clamp and the bit parallel to the
clamp (perpendicular to the tracer point); secure the key with the handle (P).
4) Fit the key blank into the right-hand clamp with the centre stop up against the clamp and the bit parallel to the
clamp (perpendicular to the cutter); secure the key with the handle (P1).
Cutting:
1) Turn on the machine with the ON/OFF switch (A).
2) Use the lever (L) to slowly take the carriage towards the cutter and press the button (B) to start the motor.
3) Take the cut closest to the original key tip against the tracer point (if required release the lever (Q) and lower
the lever (R) to round off the cut).
4) Take the carriage back to come out of the cut. Move the carriage sideways and enter the next cut. Do not move
sideways once into the cut.
5) Complete the bit in this way and check the sides of the bit if necessary.
6) When the cutting operation is fi nished, take the carriage all the way back (the motor will stop automatically) and
remove the keys.
