Edge band trimming
Protruding edge bands can be fl ush trimmed with
the angle arm WA-OF (14.4) in connection with the
guide plate UP-OF (14.5) (accessories).
- Screw the angle arm into the platen’s threaded
bore (14.1) with the rotating knob (14.2).
- Bolt the guide plate to the angle arm with the
rotating knob (14.3).
- Adjust the milling depth so that this is equal to
the thickness of the edge band + 2 mm.
- Move the guide plate (14.5) as close as possible to
the cutter by loosening the rotating knob (14.9).
- Adjust the depth of the guide plate with the ad-
justing wheel (14.8) so that during trimming a few
decimillimetres of the edge band are left protrud-
ing which can then be sanded down by hand.
The chip guard SF-OF (14.6) (accessory) improves
dust extraction when trimming edge bands. It is
fastened to the side of the platen with the rotating
knob (14.7) and cover the cutter from above during
work.
