NTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of the "Standard of the Industry" HPC Blitz™ Machine. From its introduction in
the 1970's, it revolutionized the locksmith industry. The Blitz™ simplified the code cutting process, and its innovative
design earned it 3 U.S. patents. It is the best selling code machine and has become an integral part of virtually every
locksmith business.
The Blitz™ is very easy to use and extremely versatile. It cuts by actual manufacturer's depths and spaces. There is no
need to convert to micrometer readings. With its rotating cutter head, the Blitz™ can cut high-security angle keys such
as Medeco® (including Biaxial™)
This machine cuts accurate keys by code quickly and easily. The ease of changing from one manufacturer
ʼ
s
specifications to another
ʼ
s is so simple, it is unparalleled. Even radically different changes can be set up in 10 to 30
seconds without wasting any key blanks.
This dramatic code cutting advancement is made possible through the use of code cards, which are inserted in the
code machine. These cards have depth and space indicators, plus all the pertinent information such as cutter, jaw, code
series, blanks and any special information you may need. Quite often, just replacing a code card is all that is required
when making a change. Depth and space adjustments are never required in changing from one manufacturer to
another. The Blitz™ Code Machine is a must for those who create master key systems or do code work.
A fully illustrated, step-by-step set of instructions is contained in the following pages. Please, be sure to spend some
time reading and understanding all the steps thoroughly - so that NONE of the unique capabilities of this unusual
machine is overlooked.
You will find, that cutting keys to dimensions more exact than the lock manufacturer
ʼ
s themselves produce is
accomplished with extraordinary ease - on this machine!
