5.5. Locking the machine height
The machine can be adjusted to any height from the base
by turning the locking lever K (Fig. 4) counter clockwise.
To lock the machine in a position of full safety, after
fixing it in position with the locking lever K (Fig. 4),
lock it between nuts L and M (Fig. 4), one above and
the other below the body of the machine, and firmly
tighten these nuts with their corresponding locking
nuts, using the two spanners N (Fig. 4).
After performing any work, place the
switch in the stop position and move the
nut and locking nut L (Fig. 4) to the top
limit and release the locking lever K (Fig.
4) before leaving the trimmer on a flat
surface. The built-in shock absorber will
automatically make the motor return to
its uppermost position when the lever
is released.
5.6. Adjusting the depth
With the machine at the upper limit of its vertical run,
and the front of the cutter bit flush against the wood
surface, the routing depth can be adjusted up to 100
mm. Unlock the depth rod O (Fig. 4) by loosening the
fastening knob P to lower or raise the depth rod O (Fig.
4) and adjust it to the desired depth and once again lock
the rod with the fastening knob P (Fig. 4).
PRECISION ADJUSTMENT. To adjust or correct the
precision of the depth previously set, just turn the fine
adjustment knob Q (Fig. 4). One complete turn of the
knob represents the movement of the fine adjustment
rod of 1 mm, with a maximum run of 5 mm. Each divi-
sion of the graduated fine adjustment indicator S (Fig.
4) represents a movement of 0.1 mm.
5.7. Connecting the vacuum cleaner
To connect the machine to Virutex AS182K, AS282K,
AS382L or ASC482U vacuum cleaners, or to another
external collection source, one end of the suction tube
included on the appliance should be connected at suction
nozzle C2 (Fig. 4) on the machine and the other end to
the external collection source chosen.
The power cable E2 (Fig. 19) can be fed through the
brackets on the dust collection tube to make the machine
easier to handle.
6. USE AS A CONCAVE RADIAL TRIMMER FOR RIMS
Designed for the trimming of concave radius in the
rim joints of mineral worktops, it is equipped with an
adjustable side guide T (Fig. 1) that prevents damaging
the rim and allows for quick and easy trimming, pro-
ducing a perfect finish.
The bit is prevented from causing any damage to the
material being worked by incorporating two extra
protective R10 and R5 feelers U (Fig. 1). The machine
can be safely guided using both the stop guide and the
adjustable guide (Fig. 5).
6.1. Preparing the rim
Attach the rim correctly by adding a part between the
worktop and the rim edge to create a concave bottom
with no visible joint after trimming. The size of the
intermediate part will depend on the desired radius as
shown in (Fig. 6). The maximum trimming radius in the
examples in (Fig. 6) is 10 mm and the minimum is 5 mm.
6.2. Preparing the Angle Trimmer
Disconnect the machine from the power
supply before making any adjustments.
Fitting the cutting tool
Trim in a concave radius by first attaching the radius
bit, as explained in section 5.4.
Turning the motor body (See section 5.3)
Then loosen lock screws E (Fig. 1), set motor body F to
45° and firmly retighten the screws.
Fitting the vacuum cleaner cover
For chips to be collected properly during the trimming of
radius with the machine at 45º, mount the dust collector
cover B2 (Fig. 1 and 4) below the nozzle C2 (Fig. 4) and
fasten both with screws D2 (Fig. 4). Remove the dust
collector cover B2 from the machine when it is to be
again used as a router at 90º.
Matching the edge of the tool to the base
Adjust the edge of the bit J (Fig. 7) until it is perfectly
flush with the base of the machine V (Fig. 7). Then
loosen the locking lever K (Fig. 4), move the machine
body until the bit edge is a few millimetres away from
the worktop and lock the bar K in that position. Move
the upper nut L (Fig. 4) down the threaded rod until
it reaches the machine body. Loosen the locking lever
again K (Fig. 4) and turn the upper nut L (Fig. 4) with
the spanner N (Fig. 4), move the body downwards until
the edge of the bit is fully flush with the base of the
machine and lock the body again with the lever K (Fig.
4). Move the nut and locking nut M upwards and lock
them using the two spanners N. Now place the depth
adjustment rod O (Fig. 4) at its maximum length so
that its end R (Fig. 4) presses against the lowest step
of the revolving stop turret W (Fig. 4) and lock it with
the fastening knob P (Fig. 4). Now place the movable
indicator S (Fig. 4) at zero, 0, as this will be the depth
of the final run of the radial trim.
Matching the adjustable lateral fence with the edge
of the tool.
The machine has an adjustable lateral guide T (Fig. 8) that
