The illustrations and tutorial
information contained in the following web pages
describe a series of methods to verify alignment, and
make specific adjustments to Felder saw and/or shaper
machines. This information is neither provided by,
nor sanctioned by
Felder USA or its
parent company. These techniques are simply a
collection of helpful hints based on the
experience of the author, and drawing from the
experience and teachings of other Felder users and field
technicians.
Perhaps the most practical use of this
collection of web pages is to guide the new owner in
understanding and verifying the commissioning process
performed by a Felder technician. Indeed, some of
the adjustments discussed in this set of web pages can
lead a new user to bollix up an otherwise useful
machine. Check with Felder before diving into any
of the detailed adjustments yourself.
For completeness, a list of the alignment
checks and adjustments typically performed on a new
machine by the Felder technician during commissioning
can be found
here
in the commissioning checklist. The new user
is encouraged to print a copy of this commissioning
checklist and go through it with the technician during
commissioning. Additional information on specific
alignment topics can be found in the Files section of
the
Felder Owners Group.
