4 REGULATION AND USE OF THE MACHINE
To get the most out of your key-cutting machine, check gauging periodically.
4.1 Micrometric tracer point
The choice of using a micrometric tracer point on a machine for cutting bit and pump keys allows perfect rapid
reading, as well as prompt resolution of the tiny variations in depth presented by worn keys.
Note: when the 2 ring nuts are turned together, each notch moves them 0.05 mm (with (D1) knob released)
4.2 Tracer point spring
The spring movement facilitates the identification of the cutting space before the cut is made.
• To activate the tracer point spring:
release the tracer point spring locking knob (D1) (fig. 9).
• To disable the tracer point spring:
push the tracer point up against its stop and secure with the knob (D1).
