General Description Of The Machine - Virutex FR129 VB Manual De Instrucciones

(Fig. 15b). This will enable you to cut the radiuses with
maximum ease.
The FR129 VB router will also enable you to make recesses
for hinges of any shape, provided a suitable template is used.
Minimum recess required A (Fig. 1) for fitting hinges with
the FR129 VB using a template should be at least the same
width as hinge wing B +15/64"= 6 mm.
Templates for special hinges are manufactured in accor-
dance with the width of the rebate and not the thickness
of the door, although both measurements are normally
the same, unless otherwise requested in the order form.
If the thickness of the door is less than the width of the
rebate, the hinge will fit correctly into the frame. However,
the hinge cylinder will project from the door face by the
difference in the two thicknesses.

and sideways in the template shape.

5. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINE

The router for fitting hinges is made up of the following
components and performs the following tasks:
5.1 Motor body 1 (Fig. 3), which, via the motor axis, su-
pplies the necessary power and revolutions to the TCT bit
to perform recessing.
5.2 Base 2 (Fig. 3), which includes the components for
securing and regulating the machine on the frame and
door, and which enables motor body 1 (Fig. 3) to move on
guides, sideways lengthways and inwardly, to perform the
milling of the recess, and upon which template D can be
mounted (Fig. 7) if so desired, for milling hinge recesses.
This base 2 (Fig. 3) enables you to place the recesses for
the hinges on the frame, placing it on the width of the
rebate (Fig. 1 and 4), and stopping it on inner face R (Fig.
1), or on the edge of the door (Fig. 13).
It is also possible to fit hinges to doors without rebates,
taking the reference from the outer frame face with screws
C1 (Fig. 17), as explained in Section 10.
Base 2 (Fig. 4) is secured to the frame or door by tightening
clamp vises E (Fig. 4), by turning crank handles F (Fig. 4).
Base 2 (Fig. 5) of the machine has supports on either
side, G and H (Fig. 5), with the dual function of being
used for the outer face as a reference for the limit of the
lengthways recess of the frame (Fig. 9), to place the first
hinge, and as support for connector I (Fig. 3) and hinge
distributor tube K (Fig. 3), which are used for placing the
second and subsequent hinges.
Connector 1 (Fig. 3) has fitted stop J (Fig. 13), and this is
used to place the first hinge at the door. This stop comes
already regulated from the factory so that when the door
is hung to the frame there is a gap between the door and
the frame cross beam of approximately 1/16"=1.5 mm.
This gap can be widened if so desired by loosening screw
J1 (Fig. 13) and moving stop J (Fig. 13).
Hinge distributor tubes K (Fig. 3) enable the three or four
recesses to be placed along the length of the door and
frame (Fig. 11 and 14), and have regulators at each end.
These allow work to be done at different heights of the
door (6' 6", 6' 8", 7', 8' and 9'), and hinges (3", 3
4 ½ ", 5" and 5 ½ ") (Fig. 3). The base has springs L (Fig. 6 and
7) for quick assembly of template D (Fig. 6 and 7) for the
hinge to be used.
6. PREPARATION OF THE ROUTER
Ensure that the machine is disconnected from
the mains before carrying out any preparation
or maintenance work.
6.1 FITTING THE CUTTER BIT
Firstly remove the motor body 1 from the template base
2 (Fig. 2) following the instructions in section 4 in reverse
order. Using service keys 8 and 9 (Fig. 8) we can change
the bit if necessary and also adjust the outlet to 1
mm between the end of the bit and the side of the bolt,
taking care to secure it tightly.
If the bit fitted is larger than 7/8"=22 mm, it will not pass
through cover P (Fig. 7), and will have to be dismounted
by removing screws P1 (Fig. 7) which support it.
Lastly the motor body is refitted to the base 2 (Fig. 3) as
indicated in section 4.
6.2 FITTING THE DISTRIBUTION TUBE
Hinge distributor tube 3 or 5 (Fig. 2) must be mounted
on connector 4 or 6 (Fig. 2) as shown in (Fig. 3), on the
corresponding drill hole at the height of the frame in
which hinges 6' 6", 6' 8", 7', 8' or 9' (Fig. 3), are going to
be fitted.
