5. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The FR98H shaper machine is a high-performance elec-
tric tool designed for shaping the edges of longitudinal
beams and crossbeams and modelling coffered ceilings.
Factory-fitted with cutter-holder and straight cutters for
bevel-edging, it also permits rounding or moulding of
shapes by using the moulding cutters included with the
equipment or The optional ones (Fig. 12). If the cutter-
holder is changed, replacing it with the optional one,
then the blades with special profiles can be used (Fig. 12).
The width of the straight or moulded profile obtained
can be set between 0 and 40 mm. The guide runner on
which the piece to be shaped rests can be moved with
respect to the cutter, which means that different profiles
can be made on an edge, according to the zone of the
cutter on which work is being done.
There are two ancillary grips "P" (Fig. 1), one parallel
to the main grip and at the same level, permitting
comfortable work on longitudinal beams and vertical
parts, and a top knob with two optional positions for
work on horizontal surfaces, thus in both cases allowing
a perfectly comfortable and secure two-handed grip
on the machine.
The machine is equipped with a safety connection cut-
off switch to avoid undesired start-up.
6. MACHINE ADJUSTMENT CUTTING
WIDTH ON THE EDGE
The machine has a screw "A" (Fig. 1) for adjusting the
width of cutting on an edge between 0 and 40 mm.
The maximum cutting width will be achieved in a mi-
nimum of 3 consecutive passes; it is advisable not to
exceed the cutting depths at each pass, indicated as 1, 2
and 3 or 24, 34 and 40 on the dual scale "D". The cutting
width varies depending on whether the profile of the
cutter is straight or moulded, so that one or the other
scale is used according to the cutter used for working.
To adjust the cutting width, loosen the locking lever
"B" and set the height of the guide runner "C", by
means of the screw "A", to the desired cutting width
indicated on the scale "D". Lock in this position using
the lever "B" (Fig. 1).
POSITIONING THE CUTTER ON THE EDGE
The guide runner "C" (Fig. 1), on which the piece to be
shaped rests, can be moved with respect to the cutter
using screw "E", which means that when working with
radius or moulding cutters (Fig. 12) different profiles
can be cut on an edge according to the zone of the
cutter used for the work.
