3.2.3 HF55 KEY
• Use the drill/tracer: F-11 / P-11.
• Secure the key in the clamp area designed exclusively for securing a HF55
key.
• Secure the key.
• Vertically adjust the tracer.
• The tracer must be locked (deactivate the movement spring).
• Lower the tracer slightly. (To do this, move the adjustment wheel by turning
it roughly 1/10 of a rotation).
• Afterwards, the tracer must be entered into groove and the machine head
should be locked.
• After that, raise the position of the tracer slightly to ensure it does not drag
the key.
• NOTE: Enter the middle of the groove, without touching the sides, and on
the second entry, enter on the right side and exit on the left, without applying
pressure (only lightly supporting the tracer).

3.2.6 KB2, KB4 AND KB5 KEYS
• Depending on the key model to be duplicated, a different cutter/tracer pair
will be used. See table.
• Depending on the key model to be duplicated, the use of an AD-5º, AD-15º
or AD-45º adaptor will be necessary. See table.
• Position the adaptors in the clamp.
• Secure the keys in the adaptors.
• The tracer movement spring must be activated.
• Activate the locking handle of the clamp-holding slide (X axis) to facilitate
the work.
• Cut one of the two line grooves.
• Turn the key, such that the head continues to face the machine. In this
position, cut the second line groove.
• The same operations will need to be performed on the other side of the key.
See figure 9
3.2.7 TK23 AND TK25 KEYS
• Use the drill/tracer: F-15 / P-15.
• Secure two flat key blanks in the clamp and perform the vertical adjustment
of the tracer.
• The tracer must be locked (deactivate the movement spring).
• Remove the two flat key blanks.
• Secure the key in the clamp using the P-WIN template.
• The original key should be secured with the perforated side facing up.
• Enter the tracer exactly in one of the points and lock the machine head at
that height.
• Perform cutting.
See figure 10
3.2.8 JIS4P KEY
• Use the drill/tracer: F-11 / P-11.
• Secure the key in the clamp using the AD-MJ adaptor.
• Secure the adaptors in the clamp.
• Secure the key in the adaptor up against the turning plate of the adaptor.
• Vertically adjust the tracer.
• The tracer must be locked (deactivate the movement spring).
• Perform first cut.
• Turn the two keys to the other side of the adaptor and proceed according to the
previous process regarding the placement of the keys.
• Finish second cut.
See figure 11
3.2.9 TB1 KEY
• Use the drill/tracer: F-22 / P-22.
• Secure the key in the clamp using the corresponding AD-FO adaptor.
• Position and secure the adaptors in the clamp with the exterior of the clamp.
• When positioning the key, ensure it is flat so the cuts can be symmetrically
distributed on the key.
• The tracer must be locked (deactivate the movement spring).
• Enter the tracer in the groove of a letter. Lock the height of the machine
head and raise the tracer slightly so it does not drag the adaptor.
• Perform cutting.
