3.2.4 Chain transmission with trapezoidal thread adjustment
The chain used to raise and lower the table must not be slack, but needs to be tensioned enough so
that its teeth mesh correctly.
The chain tension is adjusted with the nut located on the machine base, under the outfeed table.
Do not adjust the chain tension when the table is raising or lowering. In this case incorrect chain
tension can mean that the chain has been disconnected.
3.2.5 Variable speed motor manual (optional equipment)
WARNING!
Do not turn the feed speed adjustment knob when the
feed is off or the material is planing/moulding.
ASSEMBLY (IF VARIABLE SPEED MOTOR IS MOUNTED IN PLACE)
Mount the feed motor on the last feed roller. Be sure the torque is constant. Use the lock screw to
secure the motor on the roller.
SETTING THE FEED SPEED
To set the feed speed, use the knob located on the feed gear. To increase the speed, turn the knob
right, to decrease - turn it left.
MAINTENANCE
Fluid should be visible in the fluid inspection window. The fluid level should be checked when the
feed gear is not working.
The fluid should be refilled when it is not visible in the inspection window. Use oil for automatic
gearboxes or compatible oil according to the table below.
The variator is filled with AGIP BLASIA 32 at the factory and normally does not require oil change
during its life.
The worm gear oil does not normally need changing or topping up during gear life.
See table 3-2.
