11. Resetting for thicknessing
11.1 Removing the parallel stop (Fig. 19)
To remove the parallel stop (6), follow the above
instructions in section 9.6 in reverse order.
11.2 Removing the planing table (Fig. 39/40)
To remove the planing table (14), follow the above
instructions in section 9.4 in reverse order.
11.3 Turning the chip housing over (Fig. 40-42)
Turn the thicknessing table (42) right down with the
handcrank (4) and swing the sawdust extractor (5) up.
12. Operating in surfacing mode (Fig.
37/38)
Place the material flat on the infeed table (13) and
adjust the desired height of the planing knife cover
(12) with your left hand. The material should not come
into contact with the planing knife cover (12) when
you do this. Start the machine in surfacing mode (see
10.1) and push the material slowly and steadily
against the knife block (23). Important: Move your
hands up over and away from the knife cover.
Always keep your thumbs against your hands
while surfacing.
To align the narrow side of the workpiece, release the
clamping lever (7) for the planing knife cover (12) and
adjust the cover (12) to the required width. The plastic
spring (43) at the end of the planing knife cover (12)
should press lightly against the workpiece. Lock the
planing knife cover (12) in the correct position and
start the machine. Push the workpiece slowly and
steadily against the knife block (23). Make sure that
the parallel stop (6) is set to an angle of exactly 90°
(or an alternative desired angular distance). The
workpiece must lie flat against the parallel stop.
Important! It is imperative that a push stick is used
for all surfacing work on short workpieces (3)!
13. Operating in thicknessing mode
(Fig. 42/43)
Prepare the machine for thicknessing as described in
section 11. Adjust the thicknessing table (42) to the
desired material thickness. The setting must not
exceed a maximum of 5 mm from the actual thickness
of the material (see section 10.5). Start the machine
in thicknessing mode (see 10.1) and place the
workpiece on the thicknessing table with the planed
side facing down (42). Push the workpiece slowly
24
forwards until it is picked up by the feeding roller (44).
Wedge-shaped workpieces should always be fed in
with the thicker end first.
14. Changing the place of
installation (Fig. 49)
Lift the machine with the aid of the transportation
handles (11) until the transportation wheels (18) are
on the floor and can turn.
15. Maintenance and servicing
15.1 Replacing the planing knives (Fig. 36/44-46)
Always switch the machine off before starting
any maintenance work. To prevent workpieces
from being kicked back as a consequence of
blunt knives, check the sharpness of the knives
at regular intervals. Exchange blunt knives as
follows:
Remove the parallel stop as described in 11.1. Undo
the screws (a) on the latch (22). Screw the screws (a)
into the latch in a clockwise direction. Remove the
latch (22) from the knife block (23) together with the
knife (21). Clean the parts. Fasten a new knife (21) to
the latch (22) and fit back in the knife block. Tighten
the screws (a) lightly. Then check the amount by
which the knife (21) projects out of the planing table
(14). Use a dial gauge or ruler to do so.
The maximum amount by which the knife (21) is
permitted to project from the planing table (14) is
0.1 mm.
To correct the knife projection, screw the three Allen
screws (b) on the latch (22) further in and out. You
should also make sure that the knife projects by the
same amount across the length of the knife block (23)
(Fig. 46). Once the knife projection has been set
correctly, re-tighten the screws (a). Tighten the screws
(a) in the middle first, then the ones on the outside.
Important!
Only use knives which have been produced
specifically for this machine. If you use other knives
there is a risk of injuries as a consequence of a lack of
control. Avoid over-tightening and the possibility of the
thread becoming detached. If the latch (22) or the
screws have worn out threads they must be
immediately replaced.
15.2 Belt tension (Fig. 47/48)
Check the belt tension after the first five hours of
operation of the machine. To do so, undo the wing
nuts (a) with which the belt cover (45) is fastened.
