Depth calibration
Depth calibration is regulation of the cutting depth (fig. 18).
Proceed as follows:
1)
Ensure that the key-cutting machine is off by unplugging the power cable
.
2a) DUO and DUO BRAZIL: place the adjusting keys on the clamps (fig. 20-a) on the 2nd side for
mail box keys - fig. 38);
2b) DUO POWER: place the adjusting pins on the clamps (fig. 20-b) on the 1st side for bit/double
bit keys - fig. 39).
3) Lock the clamps in the horizontal position by means of the pin (L);
4) Raise the carriage and take the adjusting keys (or pins) into contact with the tracer point and cutting
tool (fig. 20).
5) Turn the cutting tool manually in the opposite sense to the rotation and check that it skims the adjust-
ing key (or pin) in several places.
6) If necessary, regulate the cutting depth by means of the tracer point, as described; loosen grub screw
(N3) and:
- turn the ring nut (N1) clockwise to advance the tracer point (fig. 21).
- turn the ring nut (N1) anticlockwise to return (fig. 22).
7) Repeat these operations until the cutting tool skims the adjusting key (or pin) in several points.
