dull cutter wheel can produce excessive cutting force on a key blank and exceed the machines vise
jaws clamping force to a point where the key blank could be ripped out of the machine.

MOUNTING THE MACHINE
Drill two oversized ½ holes in your bench top to mount the machine. Use ½ 13 bolts from your
local hardware store. Carefully turn the machine up-side-down and measure the spacing of the two
tapped holes on the bottom of your machine (be careful not to set the machine on the power switch).
Turn the machine right-side-up and place the machine where you want it on your work bench. Mark
the bench and drill your holes.
