Re: Felder K940S

 

It seems like they ought to have leveling feet. What do people normally use?

I remember a recent post about this - suggested basic feet with a 3/8¡± threaded shaft. That seems pretty flexible for a heavy machine.

?Like Brian I also have never heard of Felder supplying leveling feet. I assume the holes you are speaking of on the right side (facing machine standing on the rip side) are located in the main cabinet¡¯s front & back corners.

On my K975 there are two more, one on each end of the extended chassis under the slider. These are accessed by removing the panels in the rear (standing facing the control panel) of the said chassis. For this reason, they may not be easy to spot.

?Hi,

Re: Which wax paper to order?

 

I'm with Mark on not giving Uline my money.?

We use brown craft paper for these types of protective uses. We get it at Litin Paper on Plymouth Ave. It's totally adequate for the purpose, it's recycled and recyclable. We even use it in the vacuum press for epoxy glue ups.

Re: Help - RL160 shuts down on its own, trips breaker after a few minutes #dustcollection #electrical

 

I'll second Imran's suggestion of confirming that the motor is wired correctly. I just received a new 3ph RL160, and the instructions are very insistent on confirming that the motor is spinning the correct direction, and that improper rotation could result in overheating.?

For my machine, Felder wants the motor rotating clockwise, and they want the BROWN wire on the High/manufactured leg of the three phase (if present).?

?I should add that you can try cleaning the filter as well. There is the differential pressure switch that indicates filter needs cleaning. It is however not reliable, as many folks state that the light is always on on their unit. Differential pressure switch only controls light on my unit and is not able to turn motor off.

Since you are having a thermal shutdown it indicates hot motor. I noted you mentioned that breaker also tripped. That would indicate high current. There is a possibility that the motor is developing a short therefore overheating. So I would check amps to confirm that there is not a short. You should not see current greater than nameplate FLA.

Jay,

Is it a 3 phase motor? If so and if it has never run differently swap two of the 3 wires to change direction. This happened to me when I wired RL125. It pulled deceptively enough air that I did not suspect that the blower direction was backwards.

If that is not the case then my next step would be to remove the filter and then run it to find out if the plugged filter is causing the issue.

Re: Which wax paper to order?

 

18¡± freezer paper from Target, shiny side up taped down with blue tape. You¡¯ll need to splice a couple of pieces together with a strip of blue tape to cover the whole surface and prevent leaks through the gap. I¡¯ve veneered table tops over freezer paper with Unbond 800 flowing out of all four edges like a spilled milkshake pooling on the freezer paper. No need to clean it up, it doesn¡¯t leak through. I¡¯ve poured epoxy the same way. For less liquid intensive applications like painting or spraying I use craft or rosin paper from Home Depot. All very inexpensive and easy to find. When you¡¯re done with either, it goes in the trash and cleanup is done.?

?

You might consider saving the lift for moving stuff and other more interesting applications and do your glue ups on a torsion box. Easy and cheap to build out of ultralight mdf. I set mine on a couple of Krenov style sawhorses. The box is dead flat making it perfect for assembly and when you¡¯re done with it just lean it against a wall and nest the sawhorses somewhere. But it¡¯s so useful, you won¡¯t want to put it away often. Because it¡¯s cheap and easy there¡¯s no need to be careful with it and if you ever really screw it up, just sand it smooth and glue on another piece of mdf or masonite, or make a new one. You didn¡¯t say what you¡¯re doing that requires the size of your cart. My box is 3¡± x 30¡± x 48¡± which is plenty for the furniture I make, more importantly it¡¯s about the biggest I can get my arms around to pick up. But then you¡¯ve got the lift cart so you could make it any size you want.?

I will lay paper for? glue ups. I buy those 36" wide rolls? of brown craft paper from the BORG.? often I can get multiple uses from? some of it.

I have tried a heavy wax coating. It works but I still have to work to get the drips up. I wouldn't trust it to protect cast iron.

Alright, here's a potentially strange question: Are there any strong opinions or sage insights regarding wax paper?

My intended use would include the following:
-- Protecting the top of my FAT500S when performing glue-ups and epoxy work
-- Protecting the top of my FAT500S when performing painting/finishing tasks
-- Placing in between project parts that are ostensibly "dry", but perhaps still somewhat "green" and not fully cured
-- Wrapping flat objects for transport (cabinet doors, storm doors, storm windows, etc...)

The top on the FAT500S is ~46" x 82", so my sense would be to order a 48" wide roll. I'm trying to not be precious about the top, but I'd also like to avoid spending time sanding/scraping glue/epoxy and finish/paint drips off the surface.?

Going to the usual suspects, Uline and McMaster-Carr both offer waxed paper rolls.
? ? ?-- The Uline product is listed as 30lb Kraft paper with a wax coating on both sides, bringing it to a total 43lb weight. The product is only available in 1500 ft rolls that weigh 225 lbs (oof!)??
? ? ?-- McMaster-Carr offers the waxed paper in much more manageable 500 ft rolls, in two flavors:??
? ? ? ? ? -- "Wax-Coated", ?4.5 mil, $125 for a 500 ft roll. Listed as potentially leaving a wax residue on objects it touches.?
? ? ? ? ? -- "Wax-Embedded", 3.5 mil, $110 for a 500 ft roll. Listed as not leaving a wax residue on surfaces it would touch.?

My sense is to go with the "Wax Coated" 500 ft roll from McMcaster-Carr, but I'm terribly curious to hear if there are any strong opinions out there relating to wax paper, or if there are alternative products I should consider (butcher paper?). Any input would be appreciated.?
