Re: Cut Wood with Non-Ferrous Blade?
Hi Fred,
Got it. for some reason i thought you had purchased a big squeeze clamp, giving me the notion that you have a sliding saw.

Hi guys,
I am building a (huge) tool cabinet, 42"h x 41"w and about 3/4 thick. I am wondering what kind of hinge I should use to hold the doors. The doors will be about 3.5" deep, everything in hard maple except the door panels which are going to be either birch or cherry ply.?
I was thinking about using these piano hinges:??but I was wondering if these could hold the weight without sagging.?
I am also open to any other suggestions available to purchase from Canada.?

You have to get that rusted ring off the studs first. I'm guessing it's been there long enough, and probably slightly stuck in the paint, once it's off you will be able to lift the motor, I can see slots in the green chassis if you enlarge the photo.

I jiggled the motor from the rear and it moves a bit.? I tried levering from the front again like in the photo from the doc David sent and the motor moves up maybe 1mm or 2.? It sort of makes sense to be that it can't move since the retaining bolts are
passing through the frame and it seems like unless they bend the motor won't move much.?

Re: Cut Wood with Non-Ferrous Blade?
Hi Fred,
i have been following this and am curious why did you not use your felder saw? perhaps this is at work and saw is at your home. either way, well done ?

It’s the high tooth count more than the grind or rake that make them awful at ripping.

Re: Electrical wires from above for KF 700
#wiring
Yes, all our equipment has hanging electrical lines. Use properly rated materials and strain reliefs, and twist lock connectors (preferably at shoulder height for easy reach or above your head so you don't run into it when equipment is moved but cord is hanging). Overhead solves many problems with tripping and catching debris/cleanup.

if there is going to be a receptacle in the ceiling make sure it is one that locks the plug.

Re: Hammer C3-31 cuts out issue
#hammer
Sounds a lot like overcurrent protection/thermal cutout since there's clearly a cool down period and it cuts out with load, I don't know where this resides on the 2002 model. I have a 2005 B3 and it's part of the isolator switch on the back. Perhaps overcurrent is done within the electrical box on the older models. Look for something near the contactors within the electrical box written "FLA" (full load amps) or similar.

David you are correct and so is Jeff when he initially asked if belt should go in between the two rollers, looks as if smaller roller/tensioner is attached to link arm that engages the feed by pressing drive belt between tensioner roller and feed roller. Otherwise how else would there be ?power at the feed rollers. Not sure why they have same type of adjustment grub screw as my CF741 if not for adjustment of some kind. Jeff will be interesting to see if there are elongated holes behind face plate. On my CF741 there is 1 belt to cutter head and feed is obtained by the engagement of urethane covered wheel directly onto motor shaft, there is 2, one either side to get hi and low speed. Looking at your machine Jeff does it have just the one speed or is the motor a variable speed?. ? ? Sent from for Windows 10 ?

Jeff, I can’t be sure, but looking at your most recent photo, it appears to me that the belt tensioning may be done via the idler wheel with spring tension, rather than a tensioning system involving the motor mount. ??By idler wheel, what I’m talking about is circled in green from your original photo as shown below. ? Now that you’ve loosened the motor mount, it does not appear to me to have the usual slot-style bolt holes in the chassis normally associated with belt tensioning via motor mount movement. ?
I can’t imagine what that idler mechanism tensions if it isn’t the drive belt you’re trying to replace. ? Depending on which direction the spring is designed to tension the belt, the idler wheel should be either pressing to the right against the outside of the belt, or it’s pulling to the left on the inside of the belt. ? Based on your original photo, I can’t see any other function for that idler wheel other than to tension the belt.
I speak/read enough French to order a fine meal and stay out of jail, but couldn’t translate the text in your original post, so I double checked it with Google Translate using my iPhone. ? This is what I got, but it isn’t any more helpful than the english version already printed in the manual.

I took off the bolts. Here is what it looks like. It's not clear to me what to do next. I do appreciate the help. As you might guess, I've both never done this and am concerned about breaking something in the process.?

Jeff pry off retainer plate in photo, now that nuts have been removed, this will show you if you have any more travel upwards on what should be elongated holes on machine body. Happy to help after the amount of help and info I have received off this forum. Colin ? Sent from for Windows 10 ?

Re: How to lift Tannewitz Bandsaw off pallet
Joe,
I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned it, but owwm.org, or old woodworking machines, has information on older vintage machines.? Doing a search on "tannewitz ph 30" found 109 matches.

Jeff, I should of said in previous post that when you take the 4 retaining bolts out that should allow you to remove retaining flange on pulley side, this will allow you to see what is stopping you from being able to raise elect motor. ? Sent from for Windows 10 ?

Jeff good to hear it is loose, the 4 retainer bolts will be in elongated holes in machine body to allow movement of motor up & down without taking out of retaining bolts as then the motor would hang loose supported by shaft and pulley (not ideal). I would put some blocking under motor and then take out retaining bolts and then see if you can move motor up any more than the couple of millimetres you are getting now. ? ?

Electrical wires from above for KF 700

Does anyone have success with running the power line to a Felder KF700 from above and attaching it to the vertical support of the overarm saw guard?

Jeff, with 4 elect motor mounting retaining bolts just loosened, I would try to loosen elect motor flange mounting that is clamped with the 4 retaining bolts to planer/thicknesser body by gently using leverage at back of elect motor to try and break the connection between Motor flange and machine body, once motor is loose move leverage to front of elect motor-directly under where grub screw is at base of motor flange to lift motor to get your belt on.

Thanks David, Hoping that I never have to do this, I nonetheless saved the doc. the 160Hz resonant tone from the plucked belt is much more useful than trying to figure out how to measure 330 - 380Nm tension in the belt! And I did not know about that app, that alone is really going to be fun to use (and annoying to my wife ;-) Cheers Eric
Thanks David for the document and the cocktail ice tip. It had given me more ideas. Thanks also to Colin for the tips.?
I sprayed WD40 on the motor bolts and bought a 13mm extension socket and got them loose. I also completely backed out the grub screw. I tried to use a long board to wedge the motor up but I couldn't get it to budge. Any ideas what to do to get the motor to move up???
