cutter-block, loosen the 2 screws K (Fig. 4), unscrew the
screw L and remove the cutter-block guard M, which
will leave the blade bearings J in view.
2. ADJUSTING BLADES AND BLADE HOLDERS
Blade holders are regulated before leaving the factory
and do not require readjustment when changing the
blade. Nonetheless, if for any reason they have to be
adjusted, do so as follows:
Using the knob A and the wheel B (Fig. 1 and 6), align
and block the surface of the base N (Fig. 5) with the
cutting edge of the blade in the best condition, which
will used as a reference.
In the event that blade holders or blades become lost
or worn out, leave a distance of 1 mm between the
surface of base N and the diameter of the cutter-block
P (Fig. 6). Loosen slightly in the clockwise direction the
two screws G (Fig. 2) of the blade blade holder J, which
should be adjusted using the service key.
Place a rule over the base and adjust the screws R (Fig.
5) in order to withdraw or retract the blade holder with
the fitted blade until the entire length of its cutting
edge is flush and parallel with the base N.
Check that the side of the blade H does not protrude out
from its holder J, and that the blade holder is lined up
with the side of the cutter-block P (Fig. 3), and tighten
the two screws G (Fig. 2) in the counter-clockwise
direction with the service key.
Ensure that the 4 screws G (Fig. 2) are
well-tightened before resuming work
with the edge lipping planer after ma-
king any blade changes or blade holder
adjustments.
When replacing the cutter-block, use only original
VIRUTEX components.
11. CHANGE OF THE DRIVING BELT
Disconnect the equipment from the mains
before carrying out this operation.
Remove the protective cover S (Fig. 7), unscrewing the
screw T that fastens it.
Unscrew and remove knob D (Fig. 1). Loosen the two
screws U (Fig. 7), dislodge the motor unit X from its
interior housing and remove the worn-out belt V from
the driving pulley.
Carefully clean the pulley and driving wheel before
replacing the belt with a new genuine VIRUTEX belt.
Mount the new toothed belt X, making sure that its teeth
are properly intermeshed with those of the blade-holder
pulley and those of the driving wheel.

Once the belt has been fitted onto the pulleys, refit the
motor unit V in its housing, carefully screwing down the
two screws U (without forcing them), until it is properly
seated, and put knob D back in place (Fig. 1).
12. MAINTENANCE OF
BRUSHES AND COLLECTOR
Always remove the plug from the mains
socket before carrying out any work on
the machine.
It is important that brushes be changed when they have
a minimum length of 5 mm.
Unscrew the lid Y (Fig. 8) and remove the brushes from
the guides.
Replace brushes with genuine VIRUTEX brushes and check
to ensure that they slide smoothly in their guides.
After screwing the lid back on, it is recommended to
leave the machine running for 15 minutes in order to
ensure that brushes adapt properly.
Should you detect burns or ribbing on the
collector, have it repaired at a VIRUTEX
technical service outlet.
