Preparing The Machine; Starting Up The Machine - Virutex FR1129T Gebrauchsanweisung

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 rebate of the frame (Fig. 9),
to place the first hinge, and as support for connector 1 (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 1.5 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, 191, 203 and 211 cm, and hinges of different
lengths (Fig. 3). The base has springs L (Fig. 6) for quick assembly of
template D (Fig. 6) for the hinge to be used.
With machine FR1129T it is also possible to mill rectangular fittings
without a template by following the instructions in section 9 of this
manual.

6. PREPARING THE MACHINE

Ensure that the machine is disconnected from the mains
before carrying out any preparation or maintenance
work on it.
6.1 PREPARING THE TEMPLATE
Template D (Fig. 6) must be used for each type of hinge. The same
template is used to place the hinge on the frame and door, for both
right-opening doors and left-opening doors. See the attached list for
the standard template models for FR1129T.
Template D (Fig. 7) is simply pressed onto springs L (Fig. 7). The arrow on
the template should coincide with the instruction "RIGHT - DERECHA"
(Fig. 6) on the side of the base if the machine is being prepared for
right-opening doors, or doors with the instruction "LEFT - IZQUIERDA",
on the opposite side, for left-opening doors.
The recess can be made with the cutter and template guide N (Fig.
7), delivered with the machine, following the entire outline of the
template.
For round-ended hinge wings, we recommend your using a cutter bit
with the same diameter as the width of the wing and the template
guide which corresponds to the cutter bit. Thus, the fitting can be done
in one go and with greater speed. See the section on cutters bits and
template guides (Fig. 21).
6.2 FITTING THE CUTTER BIT
Unplug the machine from the electrical outlet before
carrying out any handling operations.
First remove motor body 1 (Fig. 2) from base 2 (Fig. 3), following the
instructions in section 4 in reverse order to fitting. Using service keys 7
and 8 (Fig. 8), change the cutter bit if necessary, and also adjust outlet
to 29 mm between the end of the cutter bit and the bolt face. Make
sure that it is securely tightened.
If the cutter bit fitted is larger than 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.
Finally, motor body 1 is fitted to base 2 (Fig. 3), as shown in section
4.
6.3 PREPARING THE DISTRIBUTOR TUBE
Hinge distributor tube K (Fig. 3) must be mounted on connector 1 as
shown in (Fig. 3), and the corresponding drill hole at the height of the
frame in which hinges 211, 203, or 191 cm are going to be fitted.
At the opposite end of tube K (Fig. 3), place reference stop M (Fig. 3)
in the corresponding drill hole for the length of hinge to be fitted, or
in the nearest if it does not correspond with that of those marked.
7. FITTING HINGES WITH TEMPLATE ON RIGHT-HAND DO-
ORS
7.1 FITTING HINGES TO THE FRAME
Make sure that mounting or regulation of the cutter bit, template and
the preparation of the distributor tube, explained in section 6, have
been completed before continuing.
POSITIONING THE MACHINE FOR THE FIRST RECESS
Loosen levers S (Fig. 9). Place the machine (Fig. 9) over the rebate of the
frame, turning the indicator "MARCO DERECHO" MD (RIGHT FRAME)
(Fig. 9 and 5) towards the upper part of it.
Move the machine sideways to the end of the frame rebate and
upwards until support H (Fig. 9) touches the bottom of the rebate in
the crossbeam of the frame.
Tighten the clamp vises over the thick part of the doorframe by means
of crank handles F (Fig. 9).
Move router base 2 (Fig. 9) along the width of the rebate until the
template and its support are fully fitted to interior face T (Fig. 9) of
the rebate on the frame. Secure the machine in this position using
levers S (Fig. 9).
AJUSTING THE DEPTH OF THE RECESS
Once the machine is positioned for carrying out the first rebate, push
the motor body towards the frame until the cutter bit is touching the
wood. Lock it into this position with knob U (Fig. 9).
Place the hinge between head V and nut W (Fig. 10). Adjust the width
of the hinge with this bolt. Remove the hinge and release knob U
(Fig. 9).

STARTING UP THE MACHINE

To start the machine, press button X forward (Fig. 8) to the on position.
To stop the machine, simply press the back of the switch and it will
return to the off position.
ROUTING THE FIRST RECESS
Connect the machine to the mains. Push safety button X (Fig. 8), and
press the switch to start the machine.
By gradually pushing motor body 1 (Fig. 9), the cutter bit will make an
incision on the frame to the depth of the previously adjusted hinge.
Secure the machine at this depth with knob U (Fig. 9).
Next, move the motor body lengthways and sideways, following the
outline of the template to obtain a recess for the whole shape of the
hinge.
Once the recess for the first hinge has been obtained, stop the machine.
Loosen crank handles F (Fig. 9), slide the machine to the approximate
position for the next hinge and once again secure crank handles F.
FITTING THE DISTRIBUTOR TUBE
Slightly loosen upper crank handle FS (Fig. 11) and separate the machine
from the frame rebate on this side by approximately 0.5 cm to facilitate
the fitting of previously prepared distributor tube K (Fig. 11).
Fit distributor tube K (Fig. 11) to support H (Fig. 11 and 5). To do this,
pull pin G1 (Fig. 5) until connector I (Fig. 5) of distributor tube K (Fig.
11) can enter between supports H (Fig. 11 and 5). Release it when drill
coincides with pin G1 (Fig. 5) to obtain the locking.
ROUTING THE SECOND AND THIRD RECESSES
To position the machine for the second recess, loosen both crank handles
F (Fig. 11), place centring device M (Fig. 11) of hinge distributor tube
K (Fig. 11) on the bottom part of the recess of the first hinge and,
leaning the machine against the rebate, secure crank handles F (Fig.
11) once again in this position.
Rout the second hinge recess in the same way as explained for the first.
This process is repeated to rout the third recess, positioning distributor
tube K (Fig. 11) over the second hinge. This operation is repeated for
the fourth if working with distributor tube 4 (Fig. 2) for four hinges.
