Re: Christmas in November
Hi John, Here are photos I had taken of the leaflet that was taped to my sliding table, showing the two MDF strips that were preventing the cage from moving freely. Again, these were un addition to

Thanks for the links to checklists, David. Imran, I do not recall noise or clicks. The slider was hard to move. -- John Hinman Boise ID Kappa 450X and A941

Re: Anyone know the function of these screws on old Hammer A3 41?
Not entirely sure, but the first photo my guess is outfeed table height adjustment. Second photo is lock knobs for both infeed and outfeed tables. Regards, Bryce --

Re: Christmas in November
Hi, in addition to the plastic stoppers, my machine had additional MDF strips wedged in between track and slider that prevented the table from sliding easily. Those strips were at least 1 meter long.

Re: Christmas in November
John, You don¡¯t have to do it but as David said the bearing is not centered as you stated the slider will not clear the blade opening. This is normal. It is a nerve wrecking experience to slam the

Hey guys, I just bought a 2004 Hammer A3 41 and wonder what the function of these knobs is? Does anyone know? Does anyone happen to have a manual for this old machine? It differs from the new models

David, I hope it is that simple! I will not do anything with it until the tech gets here, though. I do not want Felder telling me I broke something! I appreciate the input about possible

Re: Profil 45Z commission and setup
Weird, I don't have that knob/shaft attached to mine. I'll have to look at my loose parts that came with my machine to see if it's laying around. -- *Larry Long Neck* Just a noob trying to learn the

Re: Christmas in November
Most likely then, the bearing cage needs to be centered. To do this, force the sliding table to the absolute extreme end of travel in both directions. That will center the bearing cage. David Best -

Re: F700Z slider to cast-iron height difference
Hi, I do a fair amount of template copying and have never had an issue with using a pattern that bridges the cast and sliding table. The angle induced is so small as to inconsequential . When tenoning

Re: F700Z slider to cast-iron height difference
I guess I should also point out that for template pattern work, I use a spiral cutter that is only 100mm in diameter with an integral rub bearing. https://flic.kr/p/PtnUYq David Best - via mobile

Re: F700Z slider to cast-iron height difference
Frankly, I have never had a situation where the tiny induced angle was an issue during template routing. I mean we¡¯re talking about less than 0.1¡ã here. But if I was truly concerned about it, I
