How to Cut Residential Keys with Xhorse Key Cutting Machine?

 Xhorse Dolphin or Condor key cutting machine is possible to be used to cut household keys. With Xhorse M4 Clamp, it’s allowed to cut single & crucifix residential keys. M4 Clamp can be applied to Dolphin XP005, Dolphin II, CONDOR XC-MINI Plus automatic key cutting machines.

 

But what’s worth mentioning that M4 Clamp does not support cutting residential keys by code for the moment. You should have the original key to copy.

How to Cut SC1 key with Xhorse Dolphin XP005 and M4 Jaw?

Problem:
I have Key decode error with xhorse m4 jaw.
The Xhorse application doesn’t let me calibrate the m4.
My work around has been to pause the machine mid decoding and then lower the probe with a allen wrench.

Suggestion:
You can go under universal duplication.
Sc1 doesn’t have a key profile on xhorse app.
Select M4 clamp.

If you can put something under to lift it up a bit it should work.
