Safe Operation
The TX MATIC planing protection device automatically adapts to the conditions of the respective workpiece
machining and is also very easy to operate.
The wheel unit (
3
) at the end of the aluminium bridge (see
Figure 7) can be turned into the vertical, horizon-
tal and 45° position. In the horizontal position, it can also be folded down by 180°.
Vertical position:
•
By positioning the wheels in the vertical position (see
Figure 8) the bridge stroke is carried out auto-
matically up to a maximum height of 75 mm by the workpiece feed.
•
After machining, the bridge automatically reaches the level of the tabletop.
Horizontal position:
The four sides of a workpiece up to a maximum of 100 x 100 mm can be machined by placing the workpiece
against the fence with the wheels in horizontal position without pre-setting.
•
When feeding the workpiece against the fence, the bridge moves away from the fence up to max. 100 mm
(see
Figure 9). After machining, the bridge automatically returns to its initial position.
Inclined 45° position:
In addition, the 45° position of the wheels at the 45° inclined fence can be used for bevelling and chamfering
(see
7.2.1
Safe Position of the Hands when Feeding the Workpiece
