Introduction
Thank you for your purchase of the Mini Groove™ Machine. This machine is a fully portable
duplicator for high security, laser-cut automotive keys. It is powered by an internal 12-volt
battery that is supplied with the machine. Alternately, the Mini Groove™ can be wired to the
battery in your service vehicle using the included DC cable.
The battery is fully charged prior to packing the machine. As with a cordless drill, when the
motor begins to slow down, use the charger that is included to re-charge the battery for 12
hours.
Do not use the machine when the battery is being charged.
The motor harness has been disconnected for shipping. If you desire to run the machine on
the internal battery, connect the harness to the battery. If you would like to run the machine on
your vehicle’s 12 volt battery, connect the harness to the supplied DC cable.
The versatile jaws hold virtually all 2-track and 4-track, internal and external cut keys. The
machine has been calibrated and tested. It is ready to cut right out of the box.
Please read this manual to become familiar with the features and operation of your Mini
Groove™. Also, please complete and return the enclosed warranty registration card.
We are confident your Mini Groove™ will provide years of service for you. If you have any
questions or comments about this machine (or any HPC products), please contact us.
Thank you,
