To provide a larger bearing surface, a stop web can be
inserted into the parallel guide fence:
•
Remove one of the two stop webs at the
underside of the parallel guide fence.
•
Insert the stop web into the device on the parallel
guide fence intended for this (see Fig. 8). The
second stop web serves as spare.

Milling with template guide
The template guides (Ø 20, 30 and 40 mm) can be
used to mill shapes according to templates. The
template guides are included in the scope of supply.
After the reduction plate has been removed, the
template guide 26 (Fig. 9) is inserted in the base plate
14 (Fig. 1), turned clockwise up to the stop and
clamped with the wing screws. The template must
have a large enough bearing surface to prevent the
machine from tilting to the side. The template must be
thicker than the collar length of the template guide.
In addition, it is possible to use a porter cable holding
fixture for different template guides. This includes, for
example, the application with the dovetail jig (Leigh)
where it serves to hold the guide sleeve.
6.5.4
Milling with reduced speed
The speed reduction is used for edge machining
crosswise to the wood grain to reduce heat generation
and friction. Failure to use this can lead to a reduction
of the milling cutter service life or to burn marks on the
workpiece.
Press the speed reduction button 6 (Fig. 1) to reduce
the speed (reduction by 30%). The speed reduction is
reset by pressing the speed reduction button 6 again;
the machine runs in normal operation again.
6.5.5
Milling with adapter sleeve
If an end milling cutter (diameter 6 mm or 1/4") is to be
used for milling, an adapter sleeve must be used with
open tool clamp. Push the adapter sleeve completely
into the collet and push in the milling cutter up to the
minimum clamping depth. Pay attention that the
adapter sleeve is free of grease.
6.5.6
Milling with guide rail
When a guide rail is used, the groove in the machine's
base plate is placed onto the guide web of the guide
rail.
While doing so, the machine's base plate is projecting
beyond the guide rail. Now use the extraction adapter
for the guide rail that is included in the scope of supply
to ensure safe guidance on the guide rail.
It is also possible to position the machine against the
edge of the guide rail, opposite the splinter guard, and
to guide it in this manner.
An extended working application with the guide rail is
for instance the use of the milling adapter LO-FA for
pocket milling. The milling adapter is an optional
accessory (see chapter 10).
6.5.7
Milling with support foot
The support foot 27 (Fig. 9) can in addition be used for
template milling. With the wing screw 12 (Fig. 1), the
support foot can be set to a depth up to 30 mm to
ensure secure guiding of the machine on different
material thicknesses.

Service and maintenance
MAFELL machines are designed to be low in
maintenance.
The ball bearings used are greased for life. When the
machine has been in operation for a longer period of
time, we recommend to hand the machine in at an
authorised MAFELL customer service shop for
inspection.
7.1 Storage
Clean the machine thoroughly if the machine is not
used for a longer period of time. Spray blank metal
parts with a rust-proofing agent.

Danger
Pull the power plug during all
service work.
