    SAFETY SAFETY Safety considerations are an important element of machine installation and operation. Actively maintaining a safety mindset about yourself and others while working around or on the equipment is of primary importance. Operators and maintenance personnel should refer to the safety informa- tion on the following pages to familiarize themselves with warning labels and practices providing for safe operation and servicing of this machine.
  • Page 7 SAFETY Do not operate this machine unless all guards are in place and working cor- rectly. If any guards or hazard labels are missing or damaged call Norfield’s Service Department immediately and request a replacement at (800) 824-6242. Read and understand the operator’s manual before using this machine. Fail- ure to follow proper operating instructions could result in death or serious injury.
  • Page 8 Woodworking machinery is inherently dangerous, common sense and good safety practices are your best defense against injury.

  • Page 9: Lockout Procedures

    LOCKOUT PROCEDURES The following is an example of the minimum requirements for a lockout/tagout procedure. Norfield strongly recommends that your company establish its own written procedure. OSHA Regulation 1910.147 establishes a minimal lockout/tagout procedure to assist employers in the development of their own Lockout Procedures All employees will comply with these procedures.
  • Page 10 LOCKOUT PROCEDURES 3. Operate the switch, valve or other energy isolating devices so that all energy sources (electrical, mechanical, pneumatic, hydraulic, etc.) are disconnected or isolated from the equipment and/or circuits. Stored energy, such as that in capacitors, springs, elevated machine members, rotating flywheels, hydraulic systems, and air/gas, steam or water pressure, etc., must also be dissipated or restrained by methods such as grounding, repositioning, blocking, bleeding down, etc.
  • Page 11: Quick Start Guide

    OPERATIONS 4800XY QUICK START GUIDE Adjust the width index to be slightly larger than the door to be processed. Insert the door from the side with the head toward the door stop and the lock side away from the operator’s side of the machine.
  • Page 12 OPERATIONS CONTROLS 4800XY BASIC Basic Control Panel Control Power: The control power switch is used to turn on and off the power to the controller and the controls. This is not a service disconnect. To service the machine turn off and lock out the disconnect switch on the main electrical box.
  • Page 13 OPERATIONS Width IN: Press this button to move the width index “IN” for a narrower door. Width OUT: Press this button to move the width index “OUT” for a wider door. Door Clamp: Pressing this button will alternately clamp and unclamp the door. Template Clamp: Pressing this button will alternately clamp and unclamp the template.
  • Page 14 4800XY WITH EDGE PREP OPTION Control Power: The control power switch is used to turn on and off the power to the controller and the controls.
  • Page 15 OPERATIONS Template Guide Plunge: Pressing this button will alternately raise and lower the template guide. The tem- plate guide is used to follow a template that is inserted above the door. Door Lite Bit Plunge: Pressing this button will alternately raise and lower the door lite bit. Start the ma- chine head motor before plunging the door lite bit.
  • Page 16 OPERATIONS X Travel Stop: The X travel stop switch raises and lowers the X travel stop. Push the switch down to lower the stop and up to raise the stop. This allows the operator to lower the stop to contact the collars needed for the lite being cut and raise it to bypass the collars not needed.
  • Page 17 OPERATIONS 4800 XY OPERATING PROCEDURES POSITION AND CLAMPING THE DOOR SELECT THE DOOR TO BE PROCESSED: Before you begin you need to know the height and width of the door. Also the size and shape of the lite to be cut. ADJUST THE WIDTH INDEX: Move the width index to a size about 1 or 2 inches larger than the door.
  • Page 18 OPERATIONS LITE CUTOUT, RECTANGLE ONLY: INSTALL THE X & Y STOP BARS: There could be multiple stop bars with the machine. Select the bars that are setup for the lite needed in this door. CLAMP BOTH THE X AND Y AXIS. Clamping both the X and the Y axes will ensure that the head will not move when the bit is plunged through the door.
  • Page 19: Flow Control

    FLOW CONTROL ADJUSTMENT Most of the cylinders on Norfield machines have a flow control on each end. The flow controls are used to control the speed of the cylinder. Flow controls control the speed of the exhaust air.
  • Page 20 DOOR STOP ADJUSTMENT The 4800 comes with one door stop assembly and four door stops. The door stop assembly can be mounted at either end of the machine, so the head of the door can be to the operator’s right or the left. Deciding which end to mount the stop assembly could help to optimize material flow within your shop layout.
  • Page 21: Door Stops

    SETTING THE DOOR STOPS 1. Loosen the clamp collars on both sides of the 6’ 8” door stop. 2. Select a 6’8” door that already has the correct lock bore. 3. Put the door into the 4800 and align the lock bore with the lock template. Clamp the door.
  • Page 22 4. To set the first stop, lower the X Travel Stop, move a stop collar to the left of the travel stop, and set it at the correct distance. Measure from the left of the collar to the right of the travel stop. This dimension should be the distance you want the top of the lite from the top of the door plus ½”.
  • Page 23: Y Stops

    SETTING THE Y STOPS The Y stops are the stops that control the left and right sides of the cutout. The Y stop bar is located just to the operators left on the moving carriage. 1. The Y stop bar should have five collars at the front of the bar. The collars should be ½”...
  • Page 24 In the photo we want the cutout to be 4 ½” from the side of the door. 4. Lock the Y axes so the head does not move. 5. Raise the cutting bit and move the cutter as far to the left as it will go. This will make it easier to set the Y stops.
  • Page 25 EDGE PREP MODULE (OPTIONAL) The edge prep module allows the machine to do the lock bore, the latch bore, and the face plate mortise. The module has a template that guides the lite cutter to cut the lock bore. There is also a latch drill assembly to drill the latch bore and a router motor that will cut the face plate mortise.
  • Page 26 Photo A FACE PLATE ROUTER The face plate router will shift over, after the latch drill is complete, and cut the mor- tise for the latch plate. • To replace the cutter hold the router collet and rotate the cutting bit. It will screw off the shank.
  • Page 27 Photo C OSCILLATING QUILL ATTACHMENT The oscillating quill attachment causes the cutter to move up and down a small amount at the bottom of the plunge. When cutting steel doors this allows more of the cutting edge to be used to cut the steel skin. On the left side of the machining head there is a bracket with two sensors.
  • Page 28: Maintenance Checklist

    4800 DOOR LITE MACHINE MAINTENANCE CHECK LIST Before beginning any service repairs, general maintenance, or adjustments you MUST follow proper Lockout Tag-Out procedures. OSHA regulation 1910.147 establishes a minimal lockout tag-out procedure to assist employers in development of their own procedures.
  • Page 29: Trouble Shooting

  • Page 31 • When output 3 is on is there a light on the fourth valve? If there is no light on the fourth valve check the PLC output common. There could be a broken wire between the PLC and the valve, or the valve could be bad. •...
  • Page 32 EDGE PREP MODULE 1. Does the drill motor start? When the start button is pushed the latch drill motor should start and stay running until the stop button is pushed. If the motor does not start check the following: • Is the overload tripped? •...
  • Page 33 • Check to see if the template holder getting stuck or binding on something. 7. Does the latch drill plunge? When the edge prep cycle is started the first thing to happen is the latch drill and the lock template holder come out. The edge prep module will only operate when all of the home sensors are activated.
  • Page 34 If there is no light on the seventh valve check the PLC output common. There could be a broken wire between the PLC and the valve, or the valve could be bad. • Check for leaking or crimped air lines. •...
