Open the jaws with the jaws knob, and slide the original key with its flat side down into the center jaw up to the key stop. Slide the key blank with
its flat side down into the right jaw up to the key stop. Close the jaws with the jaws knob to lock the keys into place. Visually inspect both keys for
proper alignment in the jaws.
10.
Loosen the lateral and spring tension adjustment knobs on the clamp carriage. With the clamp carriage lever, adjust the clamp carriage to position
the tracer and the cutter bit over the middle of the two locked key blades. Tighten only the spring tension knob when done.
NOTE:
The clamp carriage has a spring system that puts lateral pressure on the tracer and cutting bit to make it easier to cut sidewinder-type keys. Do
not tighten the lateral tension adjustment knob. This knob should be left loose.
11.
Turn on the cutter motor with the motor start switch.
[NOTICE]
^
To avoid damaging the locking jaws while cutting, keep your hand off the vertical carriage lever. Pressure on the lever will change the
cutting depth.
*
^
To avoid breaking the cutter bit, never back up while cutting.*
^
Wear proper eye protection (safety glasses, goggles, etc.)
