7 MACHINE INSTALLATION AND PREPARATION
Installation is the customer’s task and does not require any special skills.
The key-cutting machine is supplied ready for use and does not need calibration except for the tools to be used;
however, the operator is required to make certain checks and prepare the machine for use.
7.1 CHECKING FOR DAMAGE
MATRIX is a solid compact machine and will not break if handling, unpacking and installation are carried out to
the instructions in this manual. However, it is good practice to check that the machine has not been damaged.
7.2 ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
To make the most of the key-cutting machine, bear in mind the following environmental parameters: it is advisable
for the area to be dry with good air circulation.
The optimum environmental conditions for machine operation are:
-
temperature 10° C to 40° C;
-
relative humidity: approx. 60%.
7.3 POSITIONING
1) Place the key-cutting machine on a solid horizontal work bench suitable for the weight of the machine (24,6
Kg). The work bench should be approximately 100-120 cm high to facilitate access to the working parts. We
recommend leaving at least 30 cm clearance behind and around the machine to ensure good ventilation and
facilitate handling (Fig. 11).
2) Make sure machine voltage is suitable for the mains supply and that the latter is earthed with a differential
switch.
3) Connect the power lead to the machine.

8.5 CARRIAGE SPRING FOR LASER KEYS
The MATRIX key-cutting machine comes with a spring system on the clamp carriage to control the range of
movement, considerably facilitating the cutting of laser keys. The spring function for laser keys is activated by
means of the knob (O) (Fig. 23) and causes pressure on the tool sides along the cutting track when making cuts;
this method allows the operator to trace cuts manually without pressing crosswise with the lever (C). Fig. 24, Fig.
25 and Fig. 26 illustrate the three examples of use of the spring system:
• CENTRAL cuts
• RIGHT-HAND cuts
• LEFT-HAND cuts

11 DISPOSAL
For correct disposal please refer to current standards.
INFORMATION FOR USERS OF PROFESSIONAL EQUIPMENT
From “Actuation of Directive 2012/19/EU regarding Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)”
The symbol of a crossed waste bin found on equipment or its packing indicates that at the end of the product’s
useful life it must be collected separately from other waste so that it can be properly treated and recycled.
In particular, separate collection of this professional equipment when no longer in use is organised and managed:
a) directly by the user when the equipment was placed on the market before 31 December 2010 and the
user personally decides to eliminate it without replacing it with new equivalent equipment designed for the
same use;
b) by the manufacturer, that is to say the subject which was the fi rst to introduce and market new equipment
that replaces previous equipment, when the user decides to eliminate equipment placed on the market
before 31 December 2010 at the end of its useful life and replace it with an equivalent product designed
for the same use. In this latter case the user may ask the manufacturer to collect the existing equipment;
c) by the manufacturer, that is to say the subject which was the fi rst to introduce and market new equipment
that replaces previous equipment, if it was placed on the market after 31 December 2010;
Suitable separate collection for the purpose of forwarding discarded equipment for recycling, treatment or disposal
in an environmentally friendly way helps to avoid possible negative effects on the environment and human health
and encourages re-use and/or recycling of the materials making up the equipment.
The sanctions currently provided for by law shall apply to users who dispose of products in unauthorised ways.
