cobblers.keys Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 I seem to be having a problem when lining up my lancer plus after changing main cutting blade. I set it up using two chubb blanks in cutter and tracer vices. Tested so they just touched the top, left and right side of the bit. However when I cut a test lock the key is having problem locking from the inside. I have tested on a 3lever union and chubb mortice lock on my shop door although sometimes it will work? As you can imagine I need this solving ASAP. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian platt Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Is the new blade sitting correct and tight try another 2 key blanks the quality of key blanks deffinetly not what they used to be normally only slight height adjustment needed after cutter change on a lancer make sure cuts are nice and square after cutting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobblers.keys Posted August 26, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Thanks for the reply Ian, everything seems in place but I have put a copy cutter in (HD 300SF) and not an original silca one. Wouldn't have thought that matters though would it?. Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian platt Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 We’ve used jma cutters For years without any issues but normally only need slight adjustment on height never had to alter the side alignment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Count Muppet Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Double check you’ve not got anything behind the blade which could make it wobble. like swarf behind the locking nut maybe cobblers.keys 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
