Slotted box joint
a)
Inserting the template and fi tting a splinter-
guard
• Lock the tow swivel segments in the central (vertical)
position with the clamping lever (see Figure 6).
• Open both clamping levers to adjust the height of the
template and press the mount for the templates right
down.
• Open the rotary knobs (16.1) to clamp the template
and insert the template.
Caution: The bent rear edge (16.2) of the template
must point upwards.
• Push the template back up to the stop and clamp tight
with the two rotary knobs (16.1)
• Turn the two stops into the positions "FZ 6" and "FZ 10"
(16.5). Align the stops so that the arrows (16.8) lie
against the inner straight side (16.7) of the notches
in the template. Clamp the stops tight with the rotary
knobs (16.6).
• Move the template up and place a board of soft wood
(16.4) below the template as a splinterguard.
Note: The splinterguard prevents splintering on the
rear side of the workpiece during routing.
Caution: To avoid damage to the jointing system during
routing and to ensure that the splinterguard functions
properly it must be 5 mm thicker and at least as wide
as the workpiece being processed.
• Push the template down until it lies flat on the
splinterguard and close the two clamping levers to adjust
the height of the template.
• Align the splinterguard so that it lies fl ush with the front
edge of the base frame and clamp it tight with the upper
pressure beam.
• Screw the splinterguard tight to the template with short
wood screws (16.3).
b)
Clamping workpieces
Clamp and process both workpieces to be joined
simultaneously with the front pressure.
Pay attention to the following (see Figure 17):
• Clamp the workpieces so that the faces which are to be
joined lie against one another.
• The sides of the workpieces lie against the stop, offset
by one slot width.
• The workpieces must be pressed against the template
from below.
• In the case of frames (carcasses) the workpieces for the
corners "A" must be placed against the left stop and the
corners "B" against the right stop. The workpieces "1"
and "3" must rest against the splinterguard at the rear,
the workpieces "2 and "4" against the pressure beam
at the front.
