lost or worn out, leave a distance of 1 mm bet-
ween the surface of base N and the diameter of 
the cutter-block P (Fig. 6). Loosen slightly in the 
clockwise direction the two screws G (Fig. 2) of 
the blade blade holder J, which should be adjusted 
using the service key. 
Place a rule over the base and adjust the screws R 
(Fig. 5) in order to withdraw or retract the blade holder 
with the 

fi

 tted blade until the entire length of its cutting 

edge is 

fl

 ush and parallel with the base N. 

Check that the side of the blade H does not protrude 
out from its holder J, and that the blade holder is 
lined up with the side of the cutter-block P (Fig. 3), 
and tighten the two screws G (Fig. 2) in the counter-
clockwise direction with the service key. 
WARNING! Ensure that the 4 screws G (Fig. 2) are 
well-tightened before resuming work with the edge 
lipping planer after making any blade changes or 
blade holder adjustments.
When replacing the cutter-block, use only original 
VIRUTEX components.

11. CHANGE OF THE DRIVING BELT

ATTENTION: Disconnect the equipment from the 
mains before carrying out this operation.
Remove the protective cover S (Fig. 7), unscrewing 
the screw T that fastens it. 
Unscrew and remove knob D (Fig. 1). Loosen the 
two screws U (Fig. 7), dislodge the motor unit X 
from its interior housing and remove the worn-out 
belt V from the driving pulley. 
Carefully clean the pulley and driving wheel before 
replacing the belt with a new genuine VIRUTEX 
belt. 
Mount the new toothed belt X, making sure that 
its teeth are properly intermeshed with those of 
the blade-holder pulley and those of the driving 
wheel. 
Once the belt has been 

fi

 tted onto the pulleys, re

fi

 t 

the motor unit V in its housing, carefully screwing 
down the two screws U (without forcing them), 
until it is properly seated, and put knob D back in 
place (Fig. 1).

12. MAINTENANCE OF 
BRUSHES AND COLLECTOR

WARNING! Always remove the plug from the 
mains socket before carrying out any work on the

 

machine.
It is important that brushes be changed when they

Unscrew the lid Y (Fig. 8) and remove the brushes 
from the guides. 
Replace brushes with genuine VIRUTEX brushes 
and check to ensure that they slide smoothly in 
their guides.

After screwing the lid back on, it is recommended to
