2. Delivery and installation
The machine is carefully packed in the factory.
Check after delivery:
1. If the packaging is damaged or
2. If the machine shows any transport damage or if it is objectionable.
In this case we ask you to inform us immediately. Subsequent complaints
cannot be considered.
The installation site for the machine must be dry and have a suitable height as well
as a level and firm ground.
The machine must not be operated outdoors, in explosion-prone areas or in
immediate vicinity to flammable substances.
The installation site should be selected in a way so that the electrical supply line with
Schuko socket and 0-conductor is installed close enough to the machine so that
there is no tensile load on the supply line.
Before commissioning, the mains voltage must be compared with the machine power
rating plate.
Connection must only be made via a correctly installed isolated ground receptacle.
The machine must not be operated without the existing safety installations.
Separate the main plug from the mains if the location of the machine changes.

4. Safety installations
In order to ensure risk-free working with our machine 912 REXA ,we have provided
the following safety installations and thereby observe the applicable European safety
requirements:
1. Protective cutter cover
The protective cutter cover is attached to the machine casing and is to prevent
reaching into the revolving cutter. For fast tool changes, loosen the cylinder
screws to remove the safety cowl on the cutter.
2. Swarf protection
The swarf protection is to prevent chips from sputtering upwards.
3. ON / OFF switch with low-voltage release
The ON / OFF switch on the back of the machine is equipped with a low-
voltage release, i.e. the machine will not reactivate itself automatically after a
power failure. This way, the risk due to an unexpected motion of the cutter is
avoided.
4. Electrical overload protection
The machine is equipped with an electrical overload protection (fuse) in the
IEC socket. This fuse is automatically destroyed upon any overload. The
machine can only be activated again after the spare fuse has been
exchanged.

10. Maintenance
The machine must be cleaned of metal residue (e.g. swarfs) in regular intervals.
(Brush)
You have to check in regular intervals that no metal residue (e.g. swarfs) can accrue
between the cutter and the machine body. (Clean with brush)
-Do not use compressed air!
Possible retension (spring pressure too low) of the lateral springs in the key holder
can be achieved by the spring tension mounted beneath the key holder. To do that,
remove the key holder sheet and loosen the setscrew of the spring tightening
coupling. Turn the spring tightening coupling upwards using a pin ∅4 and retighten
the setscrew again (pic.3).
Lubricate the following parts approx. every 4 month (earlier if needed) with a good
machine oil or grease:
- Keyholder shaft
- Feed lever
Do not lubricate the cutting spindle!
Absolutely keep the drive pulley and the
drive belt free of grease !

13. Working notes
Cutting keys with stop collars
Bring the key holder to the left into basic position using the feed lever (11).
Fasten the sample key with the stop collar approx. 1 mm from the clamping jaw
side into the left clamping jaw.
Slightly fasten the key blank with the stop collar approx. 1 mm from the clamping jaw
side info the right clamping jaw. Turn the stop lever against the stop collar of the
sample key.
Loosen the right clamping jaw and align the key blank to the stop lever and then
fasten it; then put the stop lever back.
Keys with the same stop collar on both sides can be fastened against the left
clamping jaw sides directly.
Use clamping jaw 4 for very deep cuts (under 3.8 mm).
A possible tilting of the key during the cutting process can be prevented
by using the clamping jaw sides 2 or 3.
The clamping jaws must always be kept free of swarfs by using a brush.
Cutting keys without stop collars
Keys without stop collars on the key shank can be fastened using stop plates at the
tip.
Depending on the length of the key, the stop plates are inserted into one of the outer
grooves on the right side of the clamping jaw.

Cutting cross-keys up to a length of 120 mm (pic. 8)
Depending on the length of the stop collar on the cross keys, the stop plates must be
inserted into the outer or inner left groove of the clamping with the gap upwards.
The edges of the gap are used as stop collar.
Pull back the stop plates after fastening the key.
Take care to fasten both keys on the same partition when fastening or shifting the
keys.
Cross keys with stop ring or stop edge are fastened on the outer left side of the
clamping jaw. To do that, secure the upper clamping against shifting by inserting the
stop plates into the right grooves of the clamping jaw.

Starting position - cutting
Turn the machine on – activate pressure switch (1).
Unlock the key holder (see page 10). Hold on carefully to the key holder while doing
so.
Afterwards lead the first cut on the head side of the sample key slowly to the feeler
using the feed lever (11) mounted on the left on the machine. The cutter will
automatically move at this.
Release the key holder slowly and move the feed lever (11) quickly until the cutting
process is finished. Bring the key holder into basic position after the completion of the
cutting process. The cutter drive will automatically stop.
Remove the remaining ridge on the key with the help of the wire brush (5).
Activate pressure switch (3) at that.

14. Inspection - adjustment
Cutting depth (pic.9)
Insert setting gauges (20) into both clamping jaws and fasten it.
Lead the key holder to the feeler and cutter.
Cutter and feeler must now touch the rim of the key blank evenly. Any required
correction of the depth ensues using the knurled screw. (13) (See page 10).
The adjustment using an electronically contact ensues by activating the pressure
switch (2) for the adjustment. Unscrew the feeler a bit and then turn it back slowly
until the pressure switch (2) flickers distinctly.
A required correction of the spacer (14), see page 10.
Lateral distances (pic.10)
Feeler – Cutter
Insert setting gauges (20) into both clamping jaws and fasten against the right side of
the clamping jaw.
Lead the key holder to the feeler and cutter. It now should be possible to set both
feeler and cutter evenly into the cuts of the setting gauges.
Re-setting: Loosen the screws (21) of the feeler mounting (3) slightly. A required
correction of the lateral distance ensues by the setscrew. (1) Shift the feeler mounting
in a manner, so that feeler and cutter lie closing in the cuts of the setting gauges.
Re-tighten the screws (21).
The stop levers
It must be possible to set both stop levers evenly and fixed against the blank stops.
Test: A piece of thin paper is inserted between the key blank stop and the stop lever
and should now be wedged in.
Re-setting: Loosen the screw (22) on the stop lever; set the stop lever fixed against
the key blank; re-tighten the screw (22).
