Presentation And General Aspects; Characteristics Of The Machine - JMA CAPRI Notice D'utilisation

1.- PRESENTATION AND GENERAL ASPECTS

1.1 GENERAL POINTS
the caPri key cutting machine has been designed on the basis of safety standards
currently in force in the eu.
the safety of the personnel involved in handling this type of machines can only be
achieved with a well designed worker safety programme, like the implementation of
a maintenance programme and following recommended advice as well as compliance
with the safety standards included in this manual.
although the machine is not difficult to install, it is best not to try to install, adjust or
use it without having first read this manual.
the machine leaves our factory ready for use and only requires calibration operations
for the tools that are going to be used.
1.2 TRANSPORT AND PACKING
the machine comes in a robust cardboard box protected with packing foam with the
following dimensions:
Width = 520 mm; Height = 650 mm; depth = 575 mm
Weight of machine plus packing = 30 Kg.
When you unpack the machine, check carefully to see if it has suffered any damage
during transportation.
if you find any problems, please inform the carrier immediately and do not do anything
with the machine until the carrier's agent has carried out an inspection.
to move the machine from one place to another, get hold of the machine by the base,
and not by any other part.
1.3 IDENTIFICATION LABEL
the caPri key cutting machine has an iden-
tification label, giving the machine's serial or
registration number, the manufacturer's name
and address, the ce mark and year of manu-
facture.

2. - CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MACHINE

the caPri machine is a highly robust and precision key cutting machine, which stands
out for having a clamp that enables many different types of keys to be clamped, without
the need for any adaptors.
it incorporates a novel force control system, which increases cutting precision.
2.1 FAMILIES OF KEYS
the caPri machine cuts the following types of keys, among others:
- dimple keys
- Wave keys
- tubular keys
- Fic-2 and Fic-3 keys
- Win-1d, Win-2d, Win-3d and Win-4d keys
- Jis-4.P keys
- Fo-6.P keys
2.2 ACCESSORIES
the machine is supplied with a number of accessories for its use and maintenance. all
these accessories can be housed in the machine's tool store.
- 2 fuses (housed in the bottom of the tool store)
- set of allen keys (5, 3 and 2.5)
- 1 special 1.5 short-arm allen key
- 2 tip-stop strips
- 2 jaw adjustment rods.
- 2 adaptors for cHi-1t tubular key
- cutters: F-1 and F-13
- tracer points: t-1 and t-13.
2.3 TOOL STORE
the machine has a tool store, which is fitted to the top of the machine. it can be remo-
ved and laid directly on a table (in this way providing extra space on top of the machine,
which can be used for keeping keys, accessories, etc...).
2.4 ELECTRIC CIRCUIT
the main components of the electric and electronic circuits are as follows:
socket.
connection plate.
3-position switch.
transformer.
Motor.
Keypad-display.
control card.
cutter.
tracer point.
clamp.
lighting led.
Force sensor.

2.7 COMPONENTS AND FUNCTIONAL PARTS
2.7.1 cHanGinG tHe cutter and tracer Point (21)
to release the cutter, you have to press the cutter blocking button and at the same time
rotate the tool-holder by hand.
after removing the cutter to be replaced, insert the new cutter and secure it in the tool-
holder, making sure that its end butts up against the inside of the tool-holder.
the tracer point is replaced in the same way as the cutter. the only difference to bear in
mind is that the rotation of the tracer point is always blocked internally.
2.7.2 BlocKinG tHe slide at tHe end oF tHe "Y" aXis traVel
in order to prevent the slide from moving in the "Y" direction, whilst the key cutting
machine is holding the keys in the clamp, the slide has been equipped with momentary
blocking in that direction.
to active this blocking, just move the slide as far as it will go in the direction towards
to the key cutting machine.
to deactivate the blocking, just move the slide forward, exercising a little force.
2.7.3 claMP (6)
the features of the clamp on the caPri key cutting machine are superior to those of any
normal machine on the market, as it has two separate clamping faces. in addition, the
clamps can be blocked in any rotation position between 45º 0º -45º.
2.7.4 tracer Point sPrinG MecHanisM (11)
the tracer point can be used in two different ways, depending on the work you are
going to do:
