Setup MP280 Moulder Assembly 2. Infeed and outfeed table (optional equipment). Install the infeed table to the moulder using M8x16 screws with hex socket head and washers (A). Then install the supporting plate (B) using existing bolts (C). Tighten all fasteners by hand. Using the adjusting screws (D) adjust the table, so is level and on the same height as the moulder cast iron table (double check this with a long, straight tube or flat board).
Setup Planer/moulder setup Planer/moulder setup IMPORTANT! Before starting to use the planer/moulder you have to meet the following conditions: Set up the planer/moulder on firm, level ground and level the planer/moulder. Secure the planer/moulder to the ground to prevent moving during operation. A cement pad with 12 mm diameter anchor bolts is recommended.

Feed rollers Feed rollers The MP280 has five feed rollers, which feed the work pieces through the machine. Four of these rollers are of ribbed metal and the last one has a rubber coating so that the sur- face of the work piece will not be marked when it exits the machine.
Setup Leveling the machine cast iron table Leveling the machine cast iron table IMPORTANT! Leveling the machine table is a complicated operation. Ensure that this operation is necessary before beginning any adjust- ments. The machine table is already leveled from factory, but the table can have changed its position by rough handling during transport or by the machine being subject to impact.
Setup Running the first test board 8. Ensure that the table cannot be wobbled diagonally. 9. Place the chain on the sprockets and tension the chain using the chain tensioner on the out-feed side of the machine. IMPORTANT! When the bearing housings of the upper cutter have been adjusted, or when the take-off of the planing knives has been altered, the rotating scale has to be calibrated.

Page 54
Setup Side cutter fence setup Side cutter fence setup The right side cutter has two fences: the first and second side cutter fence. They are both attached in similar fashion to the cast iron table. See Figure 3-26. Here are their locations in the machine: First side cutter fence Second side cutter fence FIG.
Page 55
Setup Side cutter fence setup See Figure 3-27. Second side cutter fence Adjustment bolts FIG. 3-27 When your test boards are complete, and you are satisfied with your setup, you can begin running material through the machine. FEEDING THE MACHINE Ensure you have adequate room for the material that you will be putting in to and taking out of your planer.
NOTE: None of the motors will start if the planer’s observation/protec- tive lid is not securely closed, or if the Emergency Stop Button is depressed. The MP280 is equipped with a lid switch that must be engaged before the machine can be started by the control panel buttons. doc050624...
Page 57
Check that all tools used in the setup of the machine are removed from the machine before starting any of the motors. The lid must be securely fastened down before the MP280 can be operated. The Emergency Stop Button must be pulled out to allow motors to be started.
Operation Planing tips NOTE: The best way to ensure that it is in the correct position is to depress the Emergency Stop Button in and then pull it out until you hear a click. STOPPING YOUR PLANER UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS Under normal operating conditions, use the top left red button to stop the machine.
Page 59
Operation Sizing stock If you are going to produce a large amount of a moulding there is an additional lock- ing screw to secure cutter 3. The locking screw is recessed in a hole on the top of carriage. Use in- and out-feed tables.
Page 60
Planing narrow stock The MP280 can process very narrow stock. However, a motion-limiting block is posi- tioned in the machine between the two tubes that the left side vertical cutter head moves on. This limiting block is held in place by two bolts that are accessible underneath the block.
Page 61
Operation Tongue and groove Tongue and groove When setting up this machine for tongue and groove material, start with several short pieces of stock similar in size (width and thickness) to your finished product. For tongue and groove that you have kept a sample from a previous run of this material, place the tongue and groove board from this previous run in the machine and match the knife height to match this original board.
Maintenance Overview SECTION 5 MAINTENANCE DANGER! Remove power before clearing debris or any other mainte- nance activity. Failure to follow this will result in serious injury or death. Follow the OSHA lockout procedures given at the end of this section. Overview Your planer is a precision machine, and will provide you with professional results if kept in good condition.
Maintenance After each use The machine table should regularly be cleaned and treated with a lubricant, for example low-viscosity oil, silicon lubricants, or wax (3-1 oil, ChuteLube, silicon sprays, etc.). After each use 1. Clean the machine from wood debris. Also check the chip outlets and the hoses. Remove wood debris that has accumulated under the machine.
Page 64
Maintenance Lubrication points 1. The bearing holders and springs of the feed rollers. See Figure 5-1. Total of 10 - four steel rollers and one rubber FIG. 5-1 2. Lubricate the trapezoidal threaded bars. See Figure 5-2. Located at all four corners FIG.

Maintenance Cleaning the metal feed rollers Cleaning the metal feed rollers Pitch may build up on the metal feed rollers if you are planing wood that has high resin content. 1. Clean pitch buildup from the feed rollers with a soft wire brush (i.e. a brush with brass bristles) and some cleaning solvent to assist in loosening the pitch.
Page 68
Maintenance Table lift assist chain adjustments Table lift assist chain adjustments The height of the cast iron table on your machine is adjusted by operating the removable crank handle located on the infeed end of the machine. The crank handle is connected to a chain, which in turn is connected to the four threaded steel rods, which are threaded through the cast iron table.
Page 69
Maintenance Table lift assist chain adjustments See Figure 5-8. View from bottom, looking up; outfeed side; cover panel removed. FIG. 5-8 1. Remove the cover panel by using a 5 mm hex wrench. 2. Loosen the sprocket nut by using a 17 mm wrench. 3.
Replacing feed chain gear sprocket set screw The feed roller sprockets in the MP280 are equipped with set screws that are designed to shear off their heads when the feed system is overloaded. For example, if the size of the material being fed into the machine is more than the machine can handle, the feed roller sprocket set screw will break off to protect the feed motor and drive train of the machine.
Maintenance Removing and replacing feed chains Removing and replacing feed chains Each chain has a master link, which must be disassembled in order to remove the chain. The master links come from the factory facing outward, and they are easily recognizable because they look different from the rest of the links.
Replacing stationary vertical cutter belt 1. Remove the collection hose and cover plate on the back of the MP280. 2. Remove plate with inspection window. 3. Loosen (do not remove) 4 cap head mounting screws holding the pulley of the stationary vertical cutter.
