5.3 Electrical connection
WARNING:
Make sure the electrical connection
corresponds to the motor specification (see engine
cover.)
WARNING:
Make sure the switch is in the
„OFF“ position before turning on the feeder.
A power feeder is an auxiliary machine that
cooperates with your spindle moulder, table saw or a
planer.
If you need to use an extension cord; use a 18AWG x
4C when not exceeding 5 metres and a 16AWG x 4C
when over 5 metres.
6. SET-UP AND ADJUSTMENT
- Place a 3-4 mm high pad under the output roller
and slowly run the feeder down until the input roller
lies on the surface and the output roller is touching
the pad. Now tighten the screws (K, pic.13) and set
the scale ring to zero. Tighten the locking pin (H), this
secures stronger downforce on the infeed roller.
6.1 Basic movements of the feeder
6.1.1 Feeding from the side
- Release the locking lever (A) and turn the feeder off the
workbench.
- Release the lever (H), grab the handle of the feeder and
lift the locking pin, turn the feeder to a vertical position.
Turn it back on the workbench and tighten all the levers.
- The workpiece must be leaning on a guiding fence
when feeding. The rollers must push the workpiece
against the fence. The difference between the distance
of the feeder and the fence should be greater on the
infeed roller by 3-4 mm than on the outfeed roller (pic.
15).
6.1.2 Feeding at an angle
- Release the locking lever (A) and turn the feeder off the
workbench.
- Release screws (K) on the end of the arm, turn the
positioning joint and set up the required angle (S), and
then tighten screws (K). (pic.13)
- Release levers (F and G), pull out the locking pin and
align the feed so that all rollers are in the same height
over the workbench, then tighten all the levers (pic. 14).
- The workpiece must be leaning on a guiding fence
when feeding. The rollers must push the workpiece
against the fence. The difference between the distance
of the feeder and the fence should be greater on the
infeed roller by 3-4 mm than on the outfeed roller (pic.
15).
