Changing The Brushes; Optional Accessories - Virutex FR160P Mode D'emploi

11. USE OF PARALLEL GUIDE
The parallel guide is used for trimming edges and
cutting slots of different shapes, depending on the
profile shape. Hard metal cutter bits are particularly
useful for smoothing edges and lengthening the
working life of the bits.
The parallel guide S (Fig. 6) is inserted in the openings
on the base T (Fig. 6) and is held in place using the
two knobs U (Fig. 6).
NORMAL SQUARE ADJUSTMENT – Loosen the base
knobs U (Fig. 6), move the square to the required
position and then tighten the knobs in this position.
PRECISION ADJUSTMENT – Once the square has
been approximately positioned and held in place,
a further fine adjustment may be made. To do this,
loosen square fastening knob V (Fig. 6), turn the
adjustment knob W (Fig. 6) to the required measu-
rement, then tighten the square fastening knob V
(Fig. 6) again in this position. A full turn of the knob
moves the square by 1 mm, with a maximum distance
of 10 mm. The gauged fine-adjustment indicator X
(Fig. 6) can be moved separately from the knob, so
that it may be set to zero from any position using
the reference mark. When turning the knob W (Fig.
6) again after adjusting the indicator X (Fig. 6), both
elements will turn together, there by indicating the
degree to which the square has been moved, with
each division representing an advance of 0.1 mm.
12. USE OF TEMPLATE GUIDES
The template guides are used for routing with a wide
variety of shapes. The chosen template guide Y (Fig.
7) is held to the base T (Fig. 7) with the two screws Z
(Fig. 7). On making a copy, a difference between the
size of the template and the routed part will appear.
The difference between the radius of the template
guide and the cutting tool must always be taken into
account when making a template.
13. DUST COLLECTOR ATTACHMENT
To attach the dust collector connector A1 (Fig. 6),
place it in the central recess in base T (Fig. 6), with
the connection facing the back, and hold it in place
with screws B1 (Fig. 6). If trimming dovetails with the
Virutex PL11 model dovetailing attachment, guide
and position the dust collector connector as desired
so that the trimmer moves over the dovetailing
attachment better.
The dust collector connector A1 may be attached
either directly to the suction tubes of AS182K and
AS282K dust collectors, or else by using the smaller-
10
diameter and lighter 6446073 standard dust collector
attachment or 1746245 of 5 m, C1 (Fig. 6), which
can then be attached to AS182K and AS282K dust
collectors or any other industrial dust collector.
14. DUST COLLECTION NOZZLE SUPPLEMENT
To ensure that the suction of the machine is sufficient
when working with trimmer bits of less than 30 mm
in diameter, use the dust collection nozzle A1 (Fig. 6)
with the included supplement F1 (Fig. 6).
If you are using trimmer bits with a diameter of more
than 30 mm and up to 40 mm, remove the supplement
F1 (Fig. 6) from the dust collection nozzle A1 (Fig.
6) and work with only the nozzle. To re-attach the
supplement, simply press it firmly into the nozzle slot.

15. CHANGING THE BRUSHES

Make sure the machine is disconnected
from the mains before performing any
operation.
The brushes should be replaced when they have a
minimum length of 5 mm. To do this, remove the
covers D1 (Fig. 8) that hold the brushes E1 (Fig. 8) and
replace them with original VIRUTEX brushes, making
sure that they slide smoothly inside the guides.
It is advisable to allow the machine to run for 15
minutes unloaded after changing the brushes. When
changing the brushes, check the condition of the
collector. If it is burnt or juts out, it should be serviced
by a Virutex service technician.
16. LUBRITATION AND CLEANING
The machine is delivered fully lubricated from the
factory and does not require any special care during
its working life. It is important to clean the machine
carefully after use, using a dry air jet.
Maintain the supply cable in perfect operating
conditions.
