Setup
IMPORTANT!
Wood debris can accumulate under the feed roller
spring mounted bearings. This impairs the feeding and increases the
risk of the work piece being hurled out of the machine. Check these
areas and, if necessary, remove the wood debris that has accumulated
there.
Adjusting the feeding speed
The stepless feeding speed can be adjusted by turning the knob on the planetary gear. If
the knob is turned clockwise the feeding speed is increased; if it is turned anticlockwise
the feeding speed is lowered.
CAUTION!
Do not adjust the feeding speed if the motor of the feed
rollers is not running. Equipment damage may occur.
The optimum feeding speed varies depending on what sort of wood you are machining,
the moisture content of the wood, and what type of moulding knives you have mounted in
the machine. The feeding speed can be adjusted from 2 m/min. to 12 m/min.

Leveling the machine cast iron table
IMPORTANT!
Leveling the machine table is a complicated operation.
Ensure that this operation is necessary before beginning any adjust-
ments.
The machine table is already leveled from factory, but the table can have changed its
position by rough handling during transport or by the machine being subject to impact.
INDICATIONS THAT THE MACHINE TABLE IS NOT LEVEL
The upper cutter cannot be adjusted so that it is parallel to the machine table
The crank for raising and lowering the table is difficult or impossible to turn.
The chain that connects the trapezoidal threaded bars that holds the machine table
has come off or has moved incorrectly on a sprocket.
LEVELING THE MACHINE
1.
Set the both bearing housings of the upper cutter in their lowest position. (See
2.
Place an absolutely level block on the machine table directly head (not against the knives
or the knife slots).
