– Mounting the depth stop and
sharpening unit
Screw the rapid action coupling (6) (with sealing ring)
into the oil mist lubricator (7) (with filter pressure
reducer). Make sure that the oil mist lubricator is
assembled in the following sequence: water separator
(8), pressure gauge (9), oil mist unit (10).
Insert the plug connection (11) into the
coupling.
To ensure lubrication of the pneumatic motor, the oil mist lubricator must be set to 1
– 2 drops of oil per minute
(or one drop of oil for approx. 15 cuts). If the compressed air connection is faulty and there is a high water
content in the compressed air, water can escape at the connection point.
Therefore, make sure that the hose connection is correct and that compressed air with a low water content is
used (the water separator must be emptied regularly).
If no dried air is available, a water absorber must be installed by the customer.
5.2.1
Filter pressure reducer
The air from pneumatic systems is usually contaminated and enriched with moisture.
A filter pressure reducer with water separator must therefore be installed between the pneumatic system and
the tool. This not only regulates the operating pressure, but also cleans and dries the compressed air. The
utility and service life of the pneumatic EFA trimmer are thus considerably increased.
The filter pressure reducer should be installed as close as possible to the pneumatic EFA trimmer.
You can purchase a suitable filter pressure reducer from
Schmid & Wezel GmbH
on request, through our
Sales department.

Preparing the EFA trimmer for use
5.3.1
Mounting the depth stop and sharpening unit
The depth stop and sharpening unit are special accessories and
may need to be fitted to the EFA trimmer before use.
Remove the screws (1) of the gear unit
cover (2) and keep them.
Remove the gear unit cover (2).
The depth stop guarantees a uniform
thickness of the material to be cut.
The sharpening unit sharpens the blade
during operation.
Mount the depth stop (3) and the sharpening
unit (4) on the EFA trimmer in place of the gear
unit cover using the screws (1).
Set an operating pressure of max. 6 bar at the filter pressure reducer.
