lost or worn out, leave a distance of 1 mm between
the edge of the blade and the diameter of the cut-
terblock P (Fig. 6).
Loosen slightly in the clockwise direction the two
screws G (Fig. 2) of the blade blade holder J, which
should be adjusted using the service key.
Place a rule over the base and adjust the screws R (Fig.
5) in order to withdraw or retract the blade holder
with the fitted blade until the entire length of its
cutting edge is flush and parallel with the base N.
Check that the side of the blade H does not protrude
out from its holder J, and that the blade holder is
lined up with the side of the cutterblock P (Fig. 3),
and tighten the two screws G (Fig. 2) in the counter-
clockwise direction with the service key.
Ensure that the 4 screws G (Fig. 2) are
well-tightened before resuming work
with the edge lipping planer after
making any blade changes or blade
holder adjustments.
When replacing the cutterblock, use only original
VIRUTEX components.
11. CHANGE OF THE DRIVING BELT
Disconnect the equipment from the
mains before carrying out this ope-
ration.
Remove the protective cover S (Fig. 7), unscrewing
the screw T that fastens it.
Turn the pulleys whilst at the same time pulling worn
belt V for extraction.
Carefully clean the toothed pulleys before replacing
the belt with a new genuine VIRUTEX belt.
Mount the new toothed belt V, making sure that its
teeth are properly intermeshed with those of the
cutterblock pulley and those of the driving wheel.
Place again protection S (Fig. 7).
12. MAINTENANCE OF
BRUSHES AND COLLECTOR
Always remove the plug from the mains
socket before carrying out any work
on the machine.
It is important that brushes be changed when they
have a minimum length of 5 mm. Unscrew the brush
cap Y (Fig. 8) and remove the brushes from the guides.
Replace brushes with genuine VIRUTEX ones and check
to ensure that they slide smoothly in their guides.
After screwing the brush cap back on, it is recommen-
ded to leave the machine running for 15 minutes in
order to ensure that brushes adapt properly.
Should you detect burns or ribbing
on the collector, have it repaired at a
VIRUTEX technical service outlet.
13. NOISE AND VIBRATION LEVEL
The noise and vibration levels of this device have
been measured in accordance with European stan-
dard EN60745-2-14 and EN 60745-1 and serve as
a basis for comparison with other machines with
similar applications.
The indicated vibration level has been determined
for the device's main applications and may be used
as an initial value for evaluating the risk presented
by exposure to vibrations. However, vibrations
may reach levels that are quite different from the
declared value under other application conditions,
with other tools or with insufficient maintenance
of the electrical device or its accessories, reaching a
much higher value as a result of the work cycle or
the manner in which the electrical device is used.
Therefore, it is necessary to establish safety measures
to protect the user from the effects of vibrations,
such as maintaining both the device and its tools
in perfect condition and organising the duration
of work cycles (such as operating times when the
machine is subjected to loads, and operating times
when working with no-load, in effect, not in use, as
reducing the latter may have a considerable effect
upon the overall exposure value).
14. WARRANTY
All VIRUTEX power tools are guaranteed for 12 months
from the date of purchase, excluding any damage
which is a result of incorrect use or of natural wear and
tear on the machine. All repairs should be carried out
by the official VIRUTEX technical assistance service.
VIRUTEX reserves the right to modify its products
without prior notice.
