5.6.2 Cutting keys with centre stop (English type)
Clamp: S1- K1 = indicates which clamp ( S1) and tailstock ( K1 ) to use for gripping the key.
Stop 0 = reference or point for positioning the key in the cutting clamp.
Cutter: 1.25 = thickness of the currently selected cutter (press SHIFT+ENTER to change thickness).
Adapt.: E1 = special adapter for keys with CENTRE STOP.
Brass/Steel = material of the key (press SHIFT+ ? to change material).
ATTENTION: always check that the wording corresponds to the material of the key.
The key blank to be cut must positioned according to the parameters given on the display after selecting the
program involved; the type of key with centre stop requires the use of the E1 adapter and the key reference
on “Stop 0”.
Please follow the instructions below carefully, and observe the order of operations.
1) Loosen the knob (T1) turning it anticlockwise until the rotating clamp (S1) can be drawn back and secured
at the end of its external run (mechanical stop).
2) Take the T wrench (T4) from its seat and fit into the screw (V1), then loosen until the jaws are fully open.
At the end of the operation do not remove the T wrench from the screw (V1).
3) Fit the key blank into the adapter E1, taking care that it is in the right position (fig. 33), then tighten the
screw (V4).
4) Fit the adapter E1 with the key blank in the inner side of the rotating clamp (S1), take the adapter up
against the face of the self-centring jaw and use the T wrench (T4) to slightly close the jaws on the rotating
clamp.
5) Move the rotating clamp S1 so that the adapter E1 enters the tailstock K1.
6) Tighten the knob (T1).
Use the T wrench (T4) to tighten the screw (V1) first, then the screw (V2).
Replace the T wrench (T4) into its seat, lower the mobile safety shield and begin the process with START.
To remove the key after cutting, carry out the same operations, in reverse order.
