DISASSEMBLING
Fixed side cutter:
Loosen the nut on the spindle with a 30 mm wrench (supplied) and a 13 mm
wrench or adjustable wrench. Unscrew the nut and remove the cutter (A) and any spacing rings
under the cutter.
IMPORTANT!
Loosen side cutter nuts by turning them in the same
direction as cutter rotation direction.
Movable side cutter:
The nut is loosened in the same way as for fixed side cutter, with the
difference that the nut for movable side cutter has left thread and is therefore screwed in the opposite
direction.
IMPORTANT!
Loosen side cutter nuts by turning them in the same
direction as cutter rotation direction. The nut of the movable side cutter
has left thread.
REPLACING KNIVES
Loosen the lock screw (B) with a 4 mm Allen wrench (C) (supplied) and remove the chip breaker (D).
Then remove the knife (E) from the dowel pin (F). Next tighten the locking screw firmly.
IMPORTANT!
Be sure the knives in the cutter are in proper direction.
The cutting edge must be pointed to the chip breaker. Check if cutter is
properly set on the spindle.
IMPORTANT!
All planer/moulder cutters should turn in opposite
direction to the feed direction.
Check that the corrosion-proof spring plate located in front of the movable cutter will not be bent
towards the cutter by the workpiece. Pay particular attention when cutting workpieces of different
widths.
Be sure that the cutter can rotate freely and chip barrier plate located behind the cutter is 5 mm from
the knife.
