4. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
OF THE RA17VG MILLING MACHINE
The main function of the machine is to make grooves
and windows in doors for inserting isolation seals.
The machine is equipped with 2 kinds of guide and a
reversible angle that enable the making of grooves in
various positions as explained in the following sections
of this manual. It also has a centering pivot which faci-
litates the entry of the bit at the start of the operation.
The machine is equipped with a suc-
tion nozzle WHICH IS OBLIGATORY TO
CONNECT through the STANDARD DUST
COLLECTION ATTACHMENT No. 9 (Fig. 1)
to our AS182K, AS282K dust collectors
or any industrial equivalent. Not con-
nectig the machine to a dust collector
can cause a breakdown of it as well as
an inefficient job.
The power cable can be fed through the brackets on
the dust collection tube to make the machine easier
to handle (Fig. 14).
The electronic control enables you to work at the ideal
speed for each type of job and bit. Adjust the speed
using button Q (Fig. 16).
The soft start function allows the machine to start
progressively without to loose power.
5. TYPES OF MILLING
The grooves can be made in the moveable parts of
doors and windows as well as in the frames, which is
recommended for its simplicity. To control the gradual,
centered entry of the miller in the wood the machine
has a centering attachment F which is activated using
button E, (Fig. 6).
To begin a groove button E is pressed to the bottom,
and the machine is placed over the piece to be grooved,
