4. RM95S TRIMMER – GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The RM95S trimmer offers the definitive solution to trimming old
frames when replacing doors. It is a high-performance machine, which
allows you to effortlessly cut both frames and crossbeams. Thanks to
the length of the blade and to the powerful motor, it can cut frames
of up to 155 mm in thickness, very tough job without such a tool. The
high-precision cutting allows you to place the new piece of wood
straight onto the cut surface, with no need for blocks or wedges.
5. ASSEMBLING THE LONGITUDINAL GUIDE,
THE CLAMP VISES AND THE STAND
Inside the carry bag you will find the longitudinal guide in three
sections, which makes it easier to transport and facilitates crossbeam
cutting using the upper section.
Assemble the longitudinal guide as follows:
1- Insert the upper and lower vise clamps that you will find in the case
to correspond with the upper and lower sections of the guide, and fix
in place using lever "A" (Fig. 1 and 2).
2- Fit the stand of the trimmer "B" (Fig. 2) to the lower section, releasing
catch "C". To do this, turn anti-clockwise and insert the stand guide
into the channel in the lower section. Once you have fully introduced
it, release the catch and the stand will be locked into position.
3- Insert the tightening rod end "E" (Fig. 3.1) of the upper section
into the hole of the sideways bolt mounted on the lower section and
fit the 4 centring pins "D" into the holes of the lower section outline
in order to align both sections. Thread the rod with the service key
on the upper area of the section (Fig. 3.2) until both sections make
contact, and tighten it hard.
Fasten the middle section over the lower section in the same manner.
4- Assemble the back protector "L", introducing it through the guide
and fixing in place using knob "M1" (Fig. 7).
Ensure that both sections are firmly joined together.
6. ADJUSTING THE CUT DEPTH STOPPERS
First measure the thickness of the new piece of wood you wish to fit,
from the base of the cut-out, to calculate how much you will need to
cut off each side of the old piece of wood. Cut depth.
Position the upper and lower revolving stoppers "F" (Figs. 4 and 5), at
0° or 180° so that they work as shown in the "Cutting diagram" (Fig.
18), depending on the width of the frame and the side being cut.
Adjust the upper and lower revolving stoppers "F" (Figs. 4 and 5) to the
required cut depth, on the millimetre ruler "G" (Figs. 1 and 4)
If the old frame you wish to cut is off-square, straighten it by positio-
ning the lower stopper "F" (Fig. 4) at the calculated depth, and move
the upper stopper "F" (Fig. 5) forward or back, until plumb line "H" (Fig.
19) is perfectly aligned with the lengthways guide. To cut the other
piece of wood with the same degree of exactness, position the lower
stopper at the required calculated depth and determine the position of
the upper stopper, measuring it against the first piece of wood you cut.

7. ATTACHING THE LONGITUDINAL GUIDE TO THE FRAME
Move the lower vise clamp "I" until it touches the ground and fix it in
place using lever "A" (Fig. 6).
Move the guide closer to the side of the frame on which you are going
to work, making sure that the stoppers "F" are in contact with the frame.
Fix the lower part of the vise clamp in place using the crank lever "J"
(Fig. 6), then put the upper vise clamp "K" (Fig. 5) right up against the
frame and fix it to both the guide and the crossbeam.
Ensure that both the upper and lower vise clamps are
properly fixed to both the frame and the guide.
8. ATTACHING THE LONGITUDINAL GUIDE
TO THE CROSSBEAM
The machine can also be used to cut the crossbeam. To do this, proceed
as follows:
Move stand "B" of the machine until it is in the upper guide section
(Fig. 8).
Loosen the lower vise clamp "I" (Fig. 8) and move it until it is in the
upper guide section.
Loosen the tightening rod E (Fig. 3) that fastens the lower section
to the middle section, separate the lower section and store it in the
transport case. The two assembled sections will be used as a guide for
cutting the crossbeam.
To fix the guide to the crossbeam, place the vise clamps at the width of
the frame on which you are going to work and fix them to the frame
by following the aforementioned steps (Fig. 9).
We recommend cutting the crossbeams after you have cut the frames,
to get the widest possible cut.
9. FIXING THE MACHINE TO THE STAND
Disconnect the machine from the mains before performing
any operation.
To place the machine on the stand, move the stand to an intermediate
position that is comfortable for the user. Hold the machine firmly
with both hands and move it closer to the frame, pressing down on
the retractable front protector "M" (Fig. 10), then align the machine's
holding guide "N" (Fig. 11) with the guide of the stand "O" and move
it down until it reaches the stopper, then fix it in place using the lever
"P" (Fig. 11).
Ensure that the machine is firmly attached to the stand.
10. LUBRICATING THE CUT
Filling the oil tank: Fill the tank with oil to approximately three-
quarters full. To do this, remove the cap R (Fig. 13) and fill the oil
directly into the tank.
We recommend the use of original Virutex lubricating oil ref: 9599263.
Failing this, use lubricating oil with a viscosity of SAE 20.
Never use old, used or dirty oil.
Never work with the oil stop off, or without oil.
Lubricating for first cut to provide enough oil to cut the first base or
crossbeam, keep the valve of lid "R" (Fig. 13) pressed down, while at the
same time opening the oil control "S" (Fig. 14) and press 3 or 4 times.
To lubricate each new cut, just press once on the valve of lid "R" (Fig. 13).
Remember to repeat the above operation to provide oil for
each new cut you make.
