supplemented with washers of the required thickness.
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. 13), the machine
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. 13).
Next, move the motor body lengthways and sideways,
between the adjusted stops, until obtaining the recess for
the whole shape of the hinge.
Once the recess for the first hinge has been obtained, stop
the machine and loosen knob U (Fig. 13).
CHANGING THE DISTRIBUTOR TUBE
Remove distributor tube K (Fig. 13) from support G (Fig.
13) and fit it again to the same support. However this time
place stop J (Fig. 13 and 14) facing upwards.
ROUTING THE SECOND AND THIRD RECESSES
Loosen both crank handles F (Fig. 13), releasing the pressure
on the door thickness, and slide the milling machine to
the position of the second hinge.
The distance between hinges (Fig. 14) is obtained by po-
sitioning centring device M (Fig. 14) of hinge distributor
tube K (Fig. 14) over the lower part of the recess of the
first hinge. This leaves the machine at the exact distance
required for carrying out the recess for the second hinge.
Secure the ensemble to the door with crank handles F
(Fig. 14) in the same way as the first hinge, and rout the
recess accordingly. This process is repeated to rout the
third recess, positioning distributor tube K (Fig. 14) over
the second hinge. The operation is repeated for the fourth
if working with tube 5 (Fig. 2) for 4 hinges.
8. PLACING HINGES ON LEFT-HAND DOORS,
WITHOUT A TEMPLATE
8.1 PLACING THE HINGES ON THE FRAME
The process to follow for routing the recesses is the same
as that for the frames for right-hand doors, the only di-
fference being that support G (Fig. 5) must be used, from
the side of the base marked "LEFT-HAND FRAME" MI, as
a reference for locating the first hinge in the frame and
for mounting distributor tube K in it. This is also used for
successive ones (Fig. 5).
8.2. PLACING THE HINGES IN THE DOOR
The process to follow for milling the recesses is the same
as that for the frames for right-opening doors, the only
difference being that support H (Fig. 5) must be used -
marked "LEFT-HAND DOOR" MD (Fig. 5) - for mounting
distributor tube K, used for placing the recesses (Fig. 5).
9. MAKING RECESSES WITH A TEMPLATE
Before continuing, ensure that MOUNTING OR REGULATING
THE MACHINE and PREPARING THE DISTRIBUTOR TUBE
have been completed, as explained in Section 6.
PREPARING THE TEMPLATE AND TEMPLATE GUIDE
If planning to use the ½ " bit supplied with the machine,
fit template guide outside diameter 16, N (Fig. 7) in the
machine with 2 screws in drill hole N1 (Fig. 7).
Place stops A1 (Fig. 7) and B1 (Fig. 16) at the maximum
distance so that they will not work when copying with
the template.
Template D (Fig. 6 and 7) will be needed for fitting every
type of hinge. This same template works for placing the
hinge in the frame and door, regardless of whether these
are right or left opening.
Template D (Fig. 7) is pressure-locked onto springs L. The
arrow of the template must be aligned with the instruc-
tion "RIGHT-DERECHA" (Fig. 6) of the side of the base, if
preparing the machine for right opening doors, or with
the instruction "LEFT-IZQUIERDA", on the opposite side,
for left opening doors.
Check to ensure the free lengthways and crossways move-
ment of the template guide within the template shape.
For hinges whose frame-fastening wings end in a rounded
tip, we recommend using a bit with the same diameter as
the width of this wing, and the template guide corres-
ponding to the bit. In this way, the recess is made in one
go and with greater speed. See the section on bits and
template guides (Fig. 21).
POSITIONING THE MACHINE FOR MAKING RECESSES,
ADJUSTING THE DEPTH OF RECESS AND FITTING THE DIS-
TRIBUTOR TUBE, in the door or frame and for right or left
opening doors, is done just as if one was working without
a template, as explained in sections 7 and 8 of this manual.
When MAKING RECESSES, instead of moving the machine
between the stops, move it along the inside of the template
until copying the template shape in the recess.
10. PLACING HINGES LEVEL WITH THE EXIT FACE,
OR IN FRAMES WITHOUT REBATE, WITH OR WI-
THOUT TEMPLATE
To place hinges in frames without rebates, or in frames with
recesses larger than the template that is available and/or
in those where one wants the door to fit flush with the
frame on the exit face, the machine has two adjustable
stops C1 (Fig. 17 and 18), which enable the machine to
be positioned in the frame on the external face of it (Fig.
17) and on the door on the exit side of it (Fig. 18), instead
of positioning it by the frame rebate and the entry face
of the door, as in the standard process which has been
explained.
The process for making the recesses is identical to that
explained in sections 7 and 8 of this manual except with
regard to the MACHINE POSITION FOR THE FIRST RECESS:
where in the frame, instead of moving the base of milling
machine 2 (Fig. 17) along the width of the rebate until it
stops with the interior face of it, the position of the hinge
