3.6 Noise emission

The specified values are emission values and therefore do not represent safe workplace values. Even though a relationship exists between particle emission and noise emission levels, an inference cannot be made about whether additional safety measures need to be imple-mented. Factors which can significantly affect the emis-sion level that presently exists at the workplace include duration of the effect, characteristics of the workspace, and other ambient influences. The permissible workplace

values may also differ from country to country. Neverthe-less, this information is provided to help the operator bet-ter assess hazards and risks. Depending on the location of the machine and other specific conditions, the actual noise emission values may deviate significantly from the specified values.

3.5 Particle emission

The machine was tested for particle emissions according to DIN 33893. The Wood Authority ascertained, according to the “Principles for Testing Particle Emis-sions” (workplace-related particle concentrations) of

woodworking machines, that the particle emission values for this machine are notably below the currently valid atmospheric limit of 2.0 mg/m³. This is certified by the blue label “BG Wood Particle Tested”.

Attention! Risk of material damage!To obtain perfect working results it is necessary to strictly observe the manual guidelines and maintenance instructions!

Attention! Risk of material damage!Only use genuine Felder-Group carbide inserts due to their specific geometry. Due to safety reasons only use genuine Felder-Group clamping screws for carbide inserts.

10.6.1 Safety instructions• Only change the carbide inserts if the main switch of

the machine is on off.

• Only use genuine Felder-Group carbide inserts. Only use genuine Felder-Group clamping screws. (see: spare parts list)

• Only use the cutterblock with the appropriate safety equipment. This applies particularly to the planer guard.

• The tightening torque of the clamping screws has to be in the specified torque range and should neither be below nor exceed this range. It is strongly recommended to use a torque wrench. Check the correct setting of the torque wrench before each use. (see: spare parts list)

• The use of a motorized or pneumatically powered screwdriver to screw the inserts is not allowed!

• Check whether ALL screws are tightened correctly before switching on the machine.

• The operation of the silent power cutterblock is only allowed if ALL pockets are equipped with carbide inserts.

• Check the carbide inserts and clamping screws for damages with each change. If any damage occurs, it is strictly forbidden to use the carbide inserts or clamping screws.

• Check the threads of the pockets for damage and ease of glide with each change. The machine may not be switched on if the threads do not glide easily or the required torque is not achieved.

• Ensure that the carbide inserts are aligned correctly and are placed into the pocket at the correct angle prior to tightening the clamping screw.

• Examine the pockets of the cutterblock for damages when changing the carbide inserts.

• If there are any damages of the pockets recognisable, the machine must not be switched on. Damaged pockets may lead to the carbide inserts breaking!

• It is not authorised to use spanner-extensions to tighten the carbide insert clamping screws. It is not authorised to tighten the insert clamping screws using a hammer for beating.

Note: The silent power cutterblock is a high precision tool for woodworking.This cutterblock was designed in conformity with the standard EN 847-1.BG Test certified - Inspection n°: 139-063US Pat. No. 7,708,038 and other patents pending

Attention! Risk of material damage!Only use suitable solvents (resin remover) to clean the cutterblock, which do not affect the mechanical proper-ties of the cutterblock material.

10.6.2 Instructions for use and maintenance

10.6.3 Changing/replacing inserts

1. Every carbide insert is equipped with 4 cutting edges which are marked with F/1/2/3. When mounting the carbide inserts always ensure that the blades are used with the same label.

2. No further adjustments are required. Make sure that the carbide inserts are positioned in the pocket properly and screwed in tightly.

1. Loosen the clamping screw and remove from the thread.

2. Remove carbide insert from the pocket and clean the pocket with compressed air.

3. Clean pocket with suitable cleaning agent (resin remover). It is recommended to use a small cleaning brush (toothbrush) or a cotton swab.

4. Clean carbide insert thoroughly with a suitable cleaning agent eg. resin remover (take care of the built-up cutting edge, remove any resin residues).

5. Place the carbide insert into the pocket.

6. Check the clamping screws for damages on the thread, clamping surface and tool holder (Torx T20) and clean them (replace broken screws immediately).

7. Screw the clamping screw without moving the carbide insert.

8. Tighten the clamping screw gently at first, then tighten it with a torque wrench with a torque of 5 Nm.

Warning! Risk of injury! / Risk of material damage!If a torque wrench is not used to fix the carbide inserts, it could lead to a damaged finish of the surface or become a safety risk!

Attention! Risk of material damage!In order to achieve optimal results, the cutter exchange must be in compliance with the following procedure.

Improper operation may cause increased ripples or stronger longitudinal grooves on the planed surface. These may be caused by the following:

1. Improper cleaning of the pockets when changing cutters/inserts.

2. Improper cleaning of the carbide inserts (resin- or dust residues on the carbide inserts when changing them).

3. Ensure that the carbide inserts are aligned correctly and are placed into the pocket at the correct angle prior to tightening the clamping screw.

4. Under or over-tightened clamping screws.

5. Damaged pocket due to improper insertion and tightening of the carbide insert.

6. Damaged clamping screw.

7. Changing one single carbide insert. All carbide inserts should be changed or turned to the next mark simultaneously.

8. Changing or turning just only one of the carbide inserts because of damage may create a small gap in the planed surface at this position.

Only use genuine Felder-Group carbide inserts due to their specific geometry. Due to safety reasons only use genuine Felder-Group clamping screws for carbide inserts.
