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.

This machine, when in operation, produces wood chips and dust. The op-erator and all persons in the work area MUST wear approved eye protection with permanently attached, rigid plastic side shields. These safety glasses must conform to ANSI Z87.1 standards and will have “Z87” printed on the lens.

This machine, when in operation, produces a noise level greater than 85dB. The operator and all persons in the work area MUST wear approved hearing protection. OSHA has determined that a noise level in excess of 85dB aver-age in 8 hours can cause permanent hearing damage. We recommend that hearing protection be worn even if the decibel level is below 85dB.

Certain types of wood dust can cause allergic reactions. Sawdust has been determined to be a Group A carcinogen by the International Agency for Re-search on Cancer (IARC). A dust collection system or an approved personal dusk mask MUST be used when operating this equipment.

This machine has moving parts that loose clothing and long hair can become entangled in. Take care not to become caught between the work material and the feed mechanisms or any other moving components.

Before beginning any service repairs, general maintenance, or adjustments you MUST follow proper Lockout Tag-Out procedures. OSHA regulation 1910.147 establishes a minimal lockiout tag-out procedure to assist employ-ers in the development of their own procedures.

Only trained personnel that have read and understand the operator’s manu-al and all the safety precautions may operate this machine.

9

Inspect the machine at the beginning and end of each shift for damaged or cracked components such as, but not limited to, saw blades, router bits, drill bits, and boring bits.

Never leave this machine unattended while it is in operation. Make sure that all electrical and air is in the off position when the machine is not in use or is unattended and that any cutting blades have come to a complete stop.

Do not attempt to clean material from this machine until all the cutting blades have come to a complete stop. Even when the machine has been turned to the “off” position it may take up to several minutes for the blades to coast-down to a complete stop.

Woodworking machinery is inherently dangerous, common sense and good safety practices are your best defense against injury.

LOCKOUT PROCEDURES

All employees will comply with these procedures. All equipment and/or circuits will be locked out to protect against accidental or inadvertent operation when such operation of the equipment and/or circuits could cause injury to personnel. Do not attempt to operate any switch, valve, or other energy isolating device bearing a lock.

Lockout Responsibility

The primary responsibility for the proper lockout of equipment and /or circuits on a maintenance or repair project belongs to the project Supervisor and/or Foreman. How-ever, this does not alleviate any sub-contracted maintenance or repair personnel from insuring that proper lockout/tagout procedures are followed at all times. The Supervi-sor and/or Foreman will insure that each employee is properly instructed in the safety significance of lockout procedures.

Preparation for Lock-Out of Circuits and Equipment

In the following steps, when more than one individual is involved with the project and required to lock out the equipment and/or circuits, each employee will place their own personal lock on the energy isolating devices. A lock for each individual involved is the preferred method for locking out energy sources. If this not feasible, the designated in-dividual to the work crew (e.g. the project Supervisor or Foreman) with complete knowl-edge of who is on the crew may be designated by the work crew as the individual re-sponsible for carrying out all steps of the lockout procedure. That individual will inform the work crew when it is safe to work on the equipment and/or circuits. Additionally, the designated individual will not remove a crew lock until it has been verified that ALL individuals are clear.

1. Notify all affected employees and customers that a lockout is required and the reason for it.

2. If the equipment is in operation, after obtaining approval, shut it down by the normal stopping 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 procdeure. OSHA Regulation 1910.147 establishes a minimal lockout/tagout procedure to assist employers in the development of their own Lockout Procedures

LOCKOUT PROCEDURES

12

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.

4. All affected employees are then required to lockout the energy devices with their individual lock.

5. After insuring that no personnel are exposed and as a check on having disconnected the energy sources, operate the push button or other normal operation controls to make certain the equipment will not operate. In the event that electrical circuits have been locked out, insure that the circuits are de-energized by applying an appropriate voltage tester that itself has been tested on live circuits. Be sure to return all operating controls to the neutral position.

The equipment and/or circuits are now locked out.

Restoring Equipment and/or Circuits to Service

1. When the job is complete and the equipment or circuits are ready for testing or nor-mal service, check the equipment and/or circuits to insure that no one is exposed.

2. When the equipment and/or circuits are clear, remove all locks. The energy isolating devices may be operated to restore energy to the equipment and or circuits.

The following information should be read completely before any attempt is made to uncrate, install or operate the machine. Before operating the machine, the following 5 items need to be accomplished:

1. Uncrate the machine and inspect for shipping damages or shortages.

2. Position the machine in its permanent location.

3. Provide the proper electrical supply and make connections.

4. Provide the proper air supply and make connections.

5. Provide material for set-up and adjustment of the machine.

INSTALLATION

15

INSTALLATION

UNCRATING AND POSITIONING THE MACHINE:

The shipping crate for the 450 is made up of a rigid wood base to which the machine is secured. A pro-tective plastic cover and wood framework surround the machine. Also, a box containing small compo-nents and spare parts is usually enclosed in the crate. Before uncrating and positioning the machine, study the installation drawing on the previous page. Make sure that adequate clearance for material handling and machine access are provided.

To uncrate the machine, the following procedure is recommended:

1. Remove the wood framework and plastic covering.2. With the machine still on the base, move it close as possible to its permanent location. Rollers can be placed under the crate base that it can be moved into position easily.3. Remove the bolts securing the machine to the base and lift the machine into position.

SHIPPING DAMAGE AND SHORTAGES:

After the machine has been uncrated, inspect the entire machine and all other contents in the crate for shipping damage. In the event there was damage in transit, notify the freight carrier and Norfield imme-diately. While any shortages or freight damages are the responsibility of the carrier, Norfield desires to be notified as soon as possible so that the replacement of lost or damaged parts can be expedited.

AIR SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS:

ELECTRICAL SUPPLY AND CONNECTIONS:

The 450 requires 6 CFM of clean, dry air for proper operation. The air supply is connected to the machine at the filter-regulator-lubricator (FRL) unit located on the lower frame channel. The supply line should be 1/2” minimum if the length of the run is 100’ or less. For runs between 100’ and 300’, a 1” supply line is recommended. For convenience, a quick disconnect at the connection point and an air shut-off valve the machine is recommended.

The 450 requires an electrical input of 115 VAC @ 5 amps. It is equipped with a standard 3 prong 115 volt cord for easy connection. If an extension cord is used, 14 gauge is recommended as a minimum. If you prefer, the machine can be wired directly. To do so, remove the cord from the electrical control box and connect the supply to the same terminals. Either way, take care to keep the power cord clear of the operator and material movement. It is recommended that an electrical disconnect be provided near the machine for disconnecting all power from the machine when maintenance or adjustments are performed.

OPERATION

OPERATION

For optimal safe operation of the 450 Linear Stitcher, follow the procedure listed below:

1. Insure that the machine has the proper electrical and air connections (Installation, pages 14 - 15).

2. Make sure that the machine is setup for your material specifications (Settings and Adjustments, pages 17-24)

3. Turn the power ON by pulling out on the RED MUSHROOM KNOB located in the center of the control panel. This will start the motor for the drive wheels and supply power for the gun firing and power feed control systems. This button should be left ON as long as the machine is being operated.

4. Insert a jamb face up and head end in first into the machine and make sure it contacts the appro-priate reference stop.

5. Insert a stop into the machine on top of the jamb. Make sure it contacts the appropriate reference stop.

6. Push the GREEN CYCLE START push button that corresponds to the side your jamb and stop are on. The left button starts the right side and the right button, the left side. The machine may also be cycled by stepping on the appropriate foot switch.

7. To achieve optimum performance from the machine, insert another jamb and stop on the oppo-site side and start its cycle.

OPERATIONAL SETTINGS & ADJUSTMENTS

REGULATOR AND LUBRICATOR ADJUSTMENT:

CAUTION: DISCONNECT ALL ELECTRICAL POWER AND AIR TO THE MACHINE BEFORE MAKING ANY ADJUSTMENTS

Two FRL units (Filter-Regulator-Lubricator) are provided on the 450 to filter and lubricate the compressed air before it reaches the machine’s pneumatic components. They are both mounted on the lower frame channel of the machine for protection and accessibility. One is used to control the air for the drive and clamping system and the other is used for the staple guns / nailers only.

FRL FOR STAPLERS / NAIL GUNS

FRL FOR DRIVE AND CLAMPING VALVES AND CYLINDERS

REGULATOR SETTING:

The two FRL’s are independent of one another. The drive system regulator pressure should remain con-stant and is usually set at 90 PSI. The stapler / nail gun setting will vary depending on the gun type and material being run. It is usually set somewhere between 90 and 120 PSI. To adjust the settings on either regulator, pull the adjusting knob down (out) to unlock it, turn the knob either direction to increase or decrease the pressure then push the knob back in to re-lock the setting.

LUBRICATOR SETTING:

Set both drop type lubricators so that one drop of oil is mixed with the air supply every 20 - 25 complete machine cycles. Adjustment is accomplished with the small adjustment screws recessed into the top of the lubricators. Turning the screw “out” will increase the oil drip rate. If the oil drip rate is too high, excessive oil will be visible at the exhaust ports of the control valves or the exhaust ports of the air tools. Observe the oil drip rate through the sight bulb on the top of the lubricator. Keep the lubricator filled with 10wt turbine oil.

Note: machines equipped with oil less air tools (non-lubricated) will have only one lubricator.

SETTINGS & ADJUSTMENTS

FLOW CONTROL VALVES:

The speed at which the air cylinders on the machine extend or retract is controlled by flow control valves. They are normally mounted on both the front and rear ports of the cylinder. Flow control valves allow air to pass unrestricted in one direction and with a controlled flow in the other. The way they are mounted on the cylinder allows the flow of air OUT of the cylinder (exhaust) to be controlled. To control the re-traction speed, adjust the flow control on the rear or base of the cylinder. To control the extension speed, adjust the flow control on the nose or rod end of the cylinder. Before making an adjustment, loosen the nut on the adjusting knob. Re-tighten the nut (finger tight) to lock-in the setting after an adjustment has been made.

RETRACTION SPEED CONTROL

EXTENSION SPEED CONTROL

STAPLE / NAIL FIRING AND SPACING:

Staple / nail gun firing and spacing are both controlled by a Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) which is located in the electrical cabinet. When a jamb is inserted into the machine, a photo-eye is blocked which tells the PLC that a jamb is present. When the Cycle Start button is pressed, the first staple is fired and a timing sequence begins which fires a staple / nail every .8 seconds as long as the material is still detected. When the end of the jamb clears the photo-eye and it “sees” itself again, a last staple / nail is fired and the timing sequence ends. With this system, there is very little in the way of adjustments that the operator need to make. There are, however a few things that the operator should be aware of:

1. The distance from the top of the jamb to the first staple / nail is determined by the location of the jamb in relation to the staple / nail gun when the firing sequence is started. The effective length of the stop bolts on the stop arm can be changed if this distance needs to be changed.

2. The distance between the first and second staple / nail is controlled by the speed at which the first powerfeed wheel travels UP to engage the jamb and start it moving. For optimum results, the flow control valves on the powerfeed cylinders should be adjusted so that the distance between the first and second staple / nail is 10 to 10-1/2”.

3. The firing of the last staple / nail can be turned ON and OFF with the top toggle switch located on he side of the electrical cabinet. If a last staple / nail is not required, turn the toggle switch OFF (down position).

19

SETTINGS & ADJUSTMENTS

4. The bottom toggle switch on the side of the electrical box will switch the PLC to a mode that allows the operator to adjust the time between staple firings thus the distance between staples. To make this adjustment, remove the cover from the electrical box, open the small door on the controller and turn the small recessed screws clockwise to increase the distance between staples or counter-clockwise to decrease it. The screw designated “0” is for the left-hand gun and the one designated “1” is for the right -hand gun. As long as the bottom toggle switch is ON (up), this setting will be used by the controller.

5. NOTE: Use care when making this adjustment. Only a slight amount of rotation is required to change the timer value. Rotation past the adjustment screws limits will damage the PLC.

STAPLE / NAIL DEPTH ADJUSTMENT:

The initial adjustment of the “set” or “countersink” of the fastener is pre-set at the factory. Through time, future adjustments may become necessary due to conditions realtive to normal use of the ma-chine. If adjustments are necessary, the following procedures should be followed.

GUN NOSE TO ROLLER DISTANCE(Continued)

The distance from the Reference Rollers (the surface of the stop material) to the nose of the gun is the primary adjustment to control the depth of the fastener. The closer the gun is to the material when it fires, the deeper the “set” or “countersink”. To reestablish the correct nose to roller relationship, loosen the two hex bolts that secure the roller bracket so that the nuts on the depth adjuster can be repositioned. Judging by the previous fastener depths, increase or decrease the nose to roller distance. Tighten every-thing back down and run a test stop and jamb.

RECOIL ADJUSTMENT:

Recoil adjustment controls the length of time that the driver stays extended and remains in contact with the staple or nail. A long duration contact will drive the fastener deeper than a contact of short duration. The recoil is adjusted using the flow control valves on the gun firing valves located on both sides of the machine. Close down the flow control valves (clockwise) to kick the guns back slower and in turn create a long fastener/driver contact duration and a deeper countersink. Open the flow controls (counter-clock-wise) to kick the guns back quicker for a shorter driver/fastener contact and a shallower set.Opening the flow controls is also the action taken to eliminate driver drag (the driver stays extended and mars the stop material). Recoil adjustment is extremely important and should be done carefully and patiently. It should be noted that the Nose to Roller and Recoil adjustments are interactive. Changing one will affect the other.

LEFT HAND GUN FIRING VALVE

GUN RECOIL FLOW CONTROL

GUN CUSHIONING FLOW CONTROL

GUN CUSHIONING:

Cushioning the guns as they return to their firing position prevents unnecessary wear and tear to the guns and machine. Cushioning is changed by adjusting the flow controls located on the recoil cylinders. Closing the flow control (clockwise) causes the guns to return slower. Opening (counter-clockwise), faster. Optimum adjustment is when the guns fall back at a smooth, uniform speed yet fast enough to be in position to fire the next staple.

SETTINGS & ADJUSTMENTS

21

REFERENCE STOPS:

The Model 450 Stitcher features a Quick Change Stop System that allows quick changeover between leg and head jambs and between mitered and square stop material. This stop system also provides for “dedi-cated” setups for accuracy and reduced setup time. To change between one stop and another, use a 3/16 hex key (allen wrench) in the cam lock and rotate 1/4 turn counterclockwise to remove the stop arm. Install a new stop arm and rotate the cam lock clockwise to lock the stop arm in place.

JAMB AND STOP CLAMPS:

The jamb and stop clamps cylinders are plumbed in such a way that air is always supplied to the rear ports keeping the cylinders extended and the clamp shoes in position. When the machine is at rest (not driving fasteners) air is supplied to the cylinders through the low pressure regulator. This allows the material to be in-serted into the machine and accurately referenced with a minimum of force required by the operator. When the cycle is started, the air supply switches to the high pressure regulator which provides maximum force to keep the material referenced for consistent reveal.If more or less pressure on the clamps is desired for material insertion, adjust the low pressure regulator accord-ingly. We recommend however, that the high pressure regulator remain set at 90 PSI.

The flow control valves on the infeed powerfeed wheels should initially be adjusted so that the wheels lift in 1 second and retract in 5 seconds. This is a starting point only, as lift speed is used to regulate the distance between the first and second staple / nail.

25

TROUBLESHOOTING

TROUBLESHOOTING

The operation on the 450 Flow Thru Stitcher is straightforward. A pair of inputs to the programmable controller (Start Button & Material Detect Photo-Eye) results in outputs at predetermined times which actuate solenoid valves. The solenoid valves in turn fire the staple / nail guns and power the air cylinders that reference the material and lift the powerfeed wheels. Should a problem occur, first check for correct electrical and air supplies (120 VAC and 120 PSI).

If a problem with the staple/nail spacing occurs (i.e. the distance between the first and second staple is not the same as the distance between all the rest), check the adjustment of the flow control valves on the powerfeed cylinders (see “Powerfeed Wheels” on previous page). The length of time between the start of the cycle (first staple) and the powerfeed engaging the material and moving it determines the distance between the first and second staple. Remember, the speed at which the cylinder travels is controlled by restricting the exhausting air. To increase or decrease the extension speed, adjust the flow control on the rod end of the cylinder. If you experience electrical or pneumatic problems, check for loose wiring and/or air leaks first. Listed below are suggestions to aid in diagnosing various problems. The schematics at the end of this manual are also useful tools.
