Re: Cassese underpinner musings
To be fair are you sure you should be selling your Cs79? as it utilises parts that are fitted to your Cs88 (hammer, distributor block, pull cord, cartridge spring etc etc) which could prolong the life of your cs88 for the foreseeable future. Reusable wedge chutes and universal wedges will replace th...

Re: Cassese CS1 Wedge Distributor Block

Re: Cassese CS79 underpinner - fix info required
Early cs79 had an issue whereas the mechanism was positioned too high up resulting in the tip of the hammer not retracting fully (this is only apparent on the 15mm high wedges) The mechanism is suspended either side of the distributor block by two steel tubes (and bolt) the tubes need removing and t...

Re: Morso Blade sharpening (again)
If the blades feel to be getting tighter as you make the cut then it’s your blades that are warped so no amount of adjusting will cure the problem.

Re: 2nd hand Excalibur/Fletcher etc advice
Just buy the Fletcher, it’s better built, made from far better materials and just works.
Don’t waste your money on an Excalibur.

Re: Morso Eh and EHT micro switch buttons.voltage ?
The control circuit for the EHT runs at 24 volt dc, the switches are rated to a far higher voltage though.

Re: Angle and gap problems. Knife Block issue?
Also bear in mind that a Morso was designed on its final cut to only shave the face of wood mitres some plastic mouldings prefer a much wider final cut as the shave cut can disturb the surface on man made materials.

Re: Guide lock handle, tighten ?
Yes the handle just sits over the nut and the O-ring is fitted to the nut to stop it working loose but over time the handles do tend to stick themselves to the O-ring so yes a flat bladed screw driver is required to gently lever the handle off.

Re: Underpinner help (Alfamachines Minigraf 44)
Daft question?
When you replaced the hammer did you fit it the correct way round? the earlier Minigraf hammers had a flat top which could be oriented either way but the newer hammers have a raised lip which must face toward the wedges.

Re: New morso blades stiff
The bottom blades may need moving outward very slightly to allow the cutting blades to pass without binding.

Changing the spring on a Cs79 is a little bit of a faff so if you have any issues or are unsure how to go about fitting it then give me a call my mobile number is on my websites contact page.
Thanks for the order!

Re: Cassese cartridge wedge not firing
Debbie It could be caused by the wedge slider (the part that is attached to the pull cord) sticking in its slot due to dirt/grime, if so spray some wd40 on the slider and work it back and forth to clean or possibly down to a weak cartridge spring which no longer has sufficent tension to pull a full ...

Re: Top Presser Issue
Cut 2 small pieces of the same moulding on your Morso but with the rebate pointing the opposite way to normal and pin/glue the two cut pieces to form a chevron then just place the chevron upside down on top of the troublesome moulding, your top pad will then make contact with a flat surface.
