I 100% agree Felder sevice techs are more than disappointing. Regardless if the machine is new i would hold them to it.
Play hard ball, be amicable but stern if you are rud or an ass they will ignore you. If you are a oushover they will take it and run with it. Ask for Ruan the CEO and if you really have a case hold explain it to him and he will have it taken care of.
I had a problem with a brand new machine a couple years ago. It took about four months p, six visits of a Felder tech and about 40-50 actual man hours to get my machine what i thought was cutting right.?
This was my furst jointer so i did not know what i did not know. Now very familur with the machine i have come to understad the cast of my tables have dips or hollows in a coulpe key places. This means when edge jointing there are certain areas of the tables i cant use.
There is no way the techs whom serviced my machine did not figure this out in the 40-50 plus hours the messed around with my machine. They never told me of the problem?though and in the end being they knew i had not caught on buried the problem.?
Really crappy buisness if you ask me. Dont let them do the same to you. Had it not taken a crane to gett he machine into my shop i would had returned it after the 3rd or 4th tech visit.
Sorry to hear of your problem.

Hi James,
Thanks for the info. Unfortunately the setup guide is for the older model A3-31, I think I can see where they differ and where they are the same and surmise how I should adjust this model, but a little more certainty would be reassuring.
Thanks for your help.
