Adjust shaper spindle to 90 on C3-41

 

I wondered if anyone has had to adjust their spindle . ?Mine does not get to 90 with about 1/32 showing at the top of the spindle against a square. ?


Any guidance would be appreciated.

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.

Good luck

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.

No problem with that set up just be sure to allow for overhead saw guard arm. Dust and electrical come off that side also.?

Welcome aboard, Jeff.

My KF700sp's right side is placed against the wall, I opted for 32 inch rip capacity to save the space.

The only thing I can see is rough sizing cut is limited because of the wall.

Hello all, I'm a soon to be new owner of a few Felder machines. KF700SP , FB510 and AD741. I've been woodworking about 20 years but have no experience with Euro machines. I have a question about the KF700SP. Is there any issues placing the right side of the saw directly up against a wall? I looks to be like there is nothing over there I would need to get to. With my old cabinet saw that's how I had it set up and it worked out great for maximizing shop space. I'm hoping I can set this up the same way. Any advice from you experienced users would be welcome.

Re: Adjusting jointer tables on a C3-31 (2015 Model)

 

Have you checked the A3 31 setup guide from Felder USA website? Maybe you can apply the same procedure on the jointer table adjustment on your C3-31.

Hello,


I recently purchased a C3-31 and am a previous owner of an A3-31. I was lucky to receive an A3-31 that was essentially perfectly set up, however my C3-31 arrived completely out of whack across the entire machine. My last real issue to tackle in the jointer table adjustment; the outfeed table is set, I now just need to align the infeed table. The infeed table is tipped down (by a lot!) at the end opposite the cutter and I have no clue where to begin in bringing up that end, so the infeed table is parallel with the outfeed table. The manual does not address this issue and my local Felder team are more trouble than they're worth.?


Any help is appreciated, Thanks in advance for your time.

Thank you for posting the pdf. files - much easier than trying to in-zip them.

Also, please note that you need to use 7-zip.? Normal zip won't work.
Re: KF700S Professional

Felder has password protected their manual files so you can't edit them.? The files are large (around 12 megabytes), and Yahoo limits upload to 10 megabytes.? This is why I didn't (couldn't) just upload the original files.

Felder does allow printing however, so I have printed the manual in three parts.? For some reason when you print the manual the size increases rather than decreases, which is why it's three pieces rather than two.? I could resample the file to make it smaller, but I don't want to damage the quality of the pictures.

These are now posted in the Manuals folder in the files section.? Feel free to download these PDF fragments and ignore the rest of this message.

If you want the original Felder manual, you'll need to use the 7-zip files.? To use the 7-Zip file I recommend the following:? Download both pieces into the same directory.? I'll assume you've download them into your downloads directory.? Assuming you're on a windows machine, go to the directory where you downloaded the two files to.? Right click on the first file KF700Manual.7z.001, chose "7-Zip" from the pop-up menu.? Choose "Extract Here".? The KF700 Manual.pdf file should now be in the same directory.? If you get an error, you may have a bad download, or the files were put in different directories, or ended up with different names.? Assuming both files are in the same directory, and the names haven't been changes, 7-Zip will automatically find the second part.?

Greetings,


I have decided to part with our faithful combo and go to a separate saw, planer and jointer.


I bought the machine new at the 2006 IWF. 3 years ago, I converted it to 3 phase using the kit provided by Felder. The planer has Power drive. It has the mobility kit fitted and a Steff 3 wheel power feeder with long extension tube and tilt away bracket. The slider is a tad under 96" so you have to cross cut a sheet of ply before ripping as it just won't go the full 96".


I have 3 spindles for the shaper. 1 1/4" 30mm and router with three collets.


Comes with original tools and survival guide.


I'm asking $11,500.

Re: KF700S Professional

 

I have not been able to open the file.? I get either "unexpected end of data" or "can not open file as archive".? I have tried several options in the 7-zip selections list, and I think I am working in the same directory, not being all that good at computers.

Any help is appreciated - perhaps someone would open the KF-770 files as a PDF and post those?

Thanks,

Re: Air lines

 

There is a proper technique and if not followed, the joints can fail. ?The install you mention might just be lousy installation. ?I don't recall the specs, but I would not be surprised if there's an allowed installation temperature range too, since PEX is thermoplastic.

Of course this is a bit newfangled, and the 50-year performance of these fittings surely isn't known. ?On the other hand, people often think copper lasts forever, but that's not true either. ? In fact, copper can fail surprisingly fast (a few years) when not done right.

The ultimate in crimped PEX fittings is Viega PEX press. ?If anything lasts forever, that will, but the fittings are not cheap and the install tools are quite expensive. ?I've never seen a DIYer using it.

Cool tool. That looks like a good one that you buy, do your shop and let everyone else borrow. I don't think I'd wear it out on the little bit of airline I'll run. The copper pipe? Is the stuff they sell for residential water lines suitable? Thanks

May be a problem I looked to day at the stuff at the big stor
And ratings were quite low blue being the higest in straight lengths
But only 180 no good enough for my safety factor, I have to
Check what I'm have in Shop to se ratings.?
The hydraulic pressure fittings look interesting but only?

Will probably stay with rubber air hose.
