Fig. 5.3.5.
It is forbidden to set the C value lower than indicated in the table.
Otherwise there is a risk of machine overloading.
All bevels, where the bevel width (hypotenuse P, fig. 5.3.4) exceeds 10 mm, must be
performed in two steps.
For the first draft, set the C value = required C + ½ A.
For the second draft, set the required C value.
Examples of Setting:
Example No. 1:
Can we create a bevel of 10x10x45
°
with a 12mm-thick material?
In order to perform the correct adjustment, we have to set the dulling C, i.e. the
difference between the height of the required bevel and the thickness of the material, on
the scale. This means: 12-10=2.
Therefore, 2 mm should be on the scale. To check whether the machine will not be
overloaded, use the table (fig. 5.3.6).
It can be read from the table that the minimum possible value on the scale can be 3.5
mm. This means that this bevel cannot be created, because 2 mm is less than 3.5 mm.
With this setting, the total hypotenuse of the bevel (dimension P in fig. 5.3.4) exceeds the
permitted 12 mm. Therefore, there is a risk of machine destruction.
