4.9 Cutting bit and double bit keys - female
To cut female keys it is necessary to use the two universal centering pins supplied (chap. 1.4, page 6).
1) Use the knob (S) to lock the right-hand clamp in a horizontal position.
2) Remove the key stops (J) (chap. 4.4, page 11).
3) Remove the double jaws and replace with the single jaws (chap. 4.5, page 11).
4) Lock the tracer point spring using knob (D1).
5) First place a centering pin (K) on the fixed clamp (M) and secure by means of the grub screw (Q); insert the
original key so that the centering pin enters the hole in the shaft and secure loosely with knob (P).
6) Take the carriage to the tracer point and cutter by means of lever (L), rest the key bit against the tracer point
and lock the carriage in this position by means of knob (G).
7) Place the keyblank into the mobile clamp (M1) so that it butts

shaft, secure with the grub screw (Q) and tighten knob (P1).
9) Rest the head stop (M2) against the head of the key and secure
