SHOULDER GAUGE SAFETY SWITCH
This machine is equipped with a Shoulder Gauge Safety Switch to protect the
shoulder gauge from being accidentally damaged by the cutter. This type of
accident occurs if the shoulder gauge is left up at the key after gauging rather
than being lowered to its rest position before cutting the key.
Cutting A Key
To cut a key you must lower the gauge to its rest position before turning on the
cutter motor. Turning on the cutter motor is accomplished with the switch at the
rear of the machine. Turning on the machine’s cutter motor with the shoulder
gauge not in the rest position will result in the safety switch relay disengaging
the cutter motor’s power. This will also happen if the gauge is moved from its
rest position while the cutter motor is already on.
Resetting the Machine
To reset the machine, lower the shoulder gauge to its rest position, then turn
off the machine with the regular switch located at the rear of the machine. The
machine should now be turned back on to cut the key. Resetting the machine
prevents the Shoulder Gauge Safety Switch from being used as a power switch
to turn the machine on and off.
