4.3 Tracking
Tracking defines the area in which the text will be contained.
It comprises the following main parts:
• Laser
• Tracking disk (D1) with marking zone selection
• Glass slide diffusor (P)
By the combination of laser beam, disk and glass slide diffusor the marking zone is projected onto the
head of the key.
The tracking disk (D1) includes eight marking zones of different sizes and shapes (fig. 16). Other versions
are available on request.
WARNING: for tracking, always place the glass slide (P) over the key, otherwise the shiny surface of the key will
prevent good visibility of the projected area (fig. 17 - position 1). When the tracking operation has been carried out, the
glass slide (P) must be returned to position 2.
For the operator’s safety, activation of the laser beam is electronically controlled and check is made to
ensure that the clamp is not in the marking position. If the tracking disk (D1) is missing, a safety
microswitch cuts off power to the tracking.
Replacing the disk :
1) loosen the knob (D2) (fig. 16).
2) remove the disk (D1) and replace.
3) tighten the knob (D2).
