bit and possibly damaging the surface of the panel when
placing the trimmer in the working position.
5. ADJUSTMENTS
Unplug the machine from the electrical
outlet before making any adjustments.
To adjust the bit outlet, loosen knob B on the head and
turn the machine as appropriate up or down until the
desired bit outlet is achieved. The arrows on the frontal
housing and the rule on the trimming head S (Fig. 3),
help to get a precise adjustment. Fasten knob B in place
again (Fig. 3).

6. STARTING UP THE MACHINE

To start the machine, press button E forward (Fig. 1) to
the on position. To stop the machine, simply press the
back of the switch and it will return to the off position.
The electronic control enables you to work at the ideal
speed for each type of job and bit. Adjust the speed
using button K (Fig. 2).
7. CHANGING THE BIT
Make sure you place the chuck collet in
the correct position, otherwise vibrations
may occur or the part itself my come
loose (Fig. 11).
Disconnect the machine from the power
supply before this operation.
Loosen knob B (Fig. 3) and remove the head. To change
the bit (Fig. 4), block the motor shaft using key C, unscrew
the chuck with key D and remove the bit.
Insert the new bit into the housing and hold it in place
using the service keys, then fit the head back in position.
Make sure that the collet diameter mat-
ches the shank of the bit to be used.
Never use the machine without fitting
the head first.
8. CHANGE OF THE TRIMMING HEAD BASE
Disconnect the machine from the
power supply before this operation.
The machine is delivered from factory with the
trimming head base d.20 for bits of 3 mm radius. When
working with a bit 6 mm radius it will be necessary
to change this base for the one d.26. If a bit 8 mm
radius is used the standard base must be replaced for
the one d.30. Both extra bases are included as standard
equipment with the machine.
To change base M, first remove the dust collector
connection L, by unscrewing knob N (Fig. 7). Once
connection L has been removed, unfasten screws P to
remove base M and fit the appropriate base for the
bit you are going to use. Next, fit the dust collector
connection L by screwing in knob N.
9. TRIMMING CORNERS
The pivot accessory 5602127 included with FR256N
enables the corners of boards to be trimmed with the
same tool. For using it just take it out from its place in
the base and insert it in the hole of the knob leaning it
on the surface (Fig. 10).
