Operation; Initial Operation; Switching On And Off; Setting The Digging Depth - Mafell KF 1000 Originalbetriebsanleitung

The spindle 1 (Fig. 1) of the milling motor is equipped with a precision collet 2 (Fig. 1) to hold the tools. Tightening
and releasing the unit nut 3 (Fig. 1) is made easy with a spindle lock 4.
Proceed as follows for the tool change:
•
Lock the spindle 1 (Fig. 1) to unclamp the tool by pressing the locking button 4 (Fig. 1).
•
Detach union nut 3 with an open-ended spanner AF 17.
•
Pull off the tool to the front.
•
Push the new tool into the tool holding fixture up to the limit stop.
•

Operation

5.1 Initial operation

Personnel entrusted to work with the milling motor must be made aware of the operating manual, calling particular
attention to the chapter "Safety instructions".
Mount the milling cutter and the milling table before you put the machine into operation.

5.2 Switching on and off

•
Switching on: Push the switch 5 (Fig. 1) forward until it engages.
•
Switching off: Push onto the rear end of the switch. The switch jumps into off position.
The built-in electronic system provides for jerk-free acceleration when the machine is switched on and under
load readjusts the speed to the fixed setting.
In addition, this electronic system reduces the motor output in case of an overload, i.e. the spindle stops. Switch
the machine off then. Remove the cause (reduce feed speed, use sharp tool, etc.) and continue to work.
With the setting wheel 6 (Fig. 2) you can adjust the speed continuously. Appropriate speed values at the different
levels can be referenced in the table on page 4.

5.3 Setting the digging depth

The milling depth can be adjusted continuously by turning the motor unit in relation to the milling table.
- Release the clamping lever 7 (Fig. 4).
- Turn the motor unit to adjust the milling depth
- Clockwise turning = increase milling depth
- Anti-clockwise turning = decrease milling depth
- Re-tighten the tension lever
The scale on the milling attachment can be used for fine adjustment.
