Recommended router
The recommended router for the Arunda system is the LO 65 Ec (Fig. 4) with the following technical features:
Output
2600 Watt
Cutter
adapter
Solid conical adapter M12 x 1 mm.
Base
plate
Possibility to install the expansion plate and to insert the guide ring accurately centred.
Safety
devices
3 possibilities to lock the cutting depth and to ensure safe working: Lateral knob handle 1, knurled
nut 2 above the guide column, depth stop 3 (Fig. 4).
If another router than the router recommended by Mafell is used, Mafell cannot guarantee the faultless
function.
3.4
Expansion plate
When used with the jigs, the Arunda expansion plate 5 (Fig. 6) provides sufficient support for the machine.
Corresponding expansion plates are available for the different jigs.
3.5
Burr bit and blades
The Arunda burr bit 7 (Fig. 6) is specifically designed for use with the jigs. It has an M12 x 1 mm internal thread
and is equipped with reversible blades made of carbide (cannot be resharpened).
3.6
Blade change
Danger
Pull the power plug during all service work.
Firmly hold the machine and lock the arbor. Using the screwdriver included in the scope of delivery of the
Arunda cutter, unfasten the fixing screws of the first blade. Turn the blade around or replace it. Make sure that
you insert the blade correctly into the cutter adapters by pushing it down and inwards. Proceed in the same
manner with the second blade.
3.7
Guide ring (copy ring)
The Arunda guide ring 6 (Fig. 6) is used to guide the router along the jigs. The guide ring is screwed onto the
router’s base plate.
3.8
Gauge
The Arunda gauge 8 (Fig. 6) is used to set the cutting depth. It is a reference and setting tool with three
different positions: Mini, Midi and Maxi. The three positions correspond to the respective clamping force that
can be achieved at the complete pin/pin socket joint. Mini = low clamping force, Midi = medium clamping force,
Maxi = high clamping force. However, to achieve a certain clamping force, the cutting depth can also be set to
any position between Mini and Maxi (Chapter 4.2.4 and 7.2).
3.9
Lever clamps
At least two lever clamps 10 (Fig. 7) are required to work with the Arunda jigs. They must be at least 40 cm
long and have a throat depth of 14 cm. We recommend the use of Arunda quick-acting all-steel lever clamps.
