General Description
MORSØ-F mitring machine is an invaluable help to make perfect 45 degrees mitres in
wooden mouldings for Picture Framers, and general woodworking, including Dado railings,
Architraves, skirting boards and kitchen and bedroom wood mouldings.
MORSØ-F is a manual foot-operated machine. The operation is simple and effortless.
MORSØ-F mitring machine is provided with an adjustable moulding measurement stop,
measuring scale for both length and width, available in metric and imperial, adjustable fences
from 45 degrees through to 90 degrees on either side of the knife block, plus adjustable
rebate supports.
MORSØ-F cuts a double mitre at 45 degrees and a single mitre up to 90 degrees.
MORSØ-F allows you to achieve a perfectly smooth, clean, and accurate finish, by nibbling
the work piece in two cuts. Movement of the knife block (nibbling) forward and rearwards is a
manual operation on the MORSØ-F.
The forward movement of the knife block is so arranged, that the final movement is half that
of all previous movements, and is known as the ‘trim cut’.
A unique lever system ensures the cutting operation is effortless, and double return springs
return the knife block to the start position.
The vertical movement of the knife block (length of stroke) is adjustable to suit the height of
the work piece.
The pieces of moulding can be cut so accurately that they can be joined without further
finishing.

Machine Description
The MORSØ-F is constructed as a compact machine with a sturdy frame (1) and built in lever
system (46) (not shown).
The cutting assembly is situated on top of the machine.
The knife block (4) slides up and down in the slide frame (10) fitted at the cross (11), and
forwards and rearwards in the guides (12) and a cross guide in the table (2).
The razor sharp knives (5) bolted onto the knife block (4) effectively cut the mouldings.
The forward and rearward movement of the knife block assembly is operated manually by the
lever (1 ) at the front of the table (2).
The vertical movement of the knife block is achieved by pressing the foot pedal ( 4)
downwards. The built in lever system makes this operation effortless. Double heavy duty
return springs (42) (not shown) return the knife block to the start position.
The moulding is placed on the table (2) against the fences (17) + (18) which has been
adjusted to the required angle (usually 45 degrees), and the rebate supports ( 1) are
adjusted to the height and depth of the moulding rebate.
The required length of the moulding is selected by movement of the moulding stop block (2 )
and the stop beam (25). Measurement of the work piece length can be read off the
measurement facility (26) located on the table extension ( ).

Description of the ever System
The cutting movement is achieved manually.
The vertical length of the stroke of the knives is adjusted at the factory to 165 mm, but this
can be re-adjusted to max. 200 mm, if necessary, (see chapter F-6).
The cutting action is achieved by a foot operated lever mechanism.
The pedal ( 4) is pressed down.
The foot pedal tipper ( 5) pulls the draw bow ( 8), draw bar (40), and the knife block (4)
down.
Double return springs (42) ensure the pedal ( 4) and knife block (4) are returned to the start
position when the foot pressure is relieved from the foot pedal.
There is an adjustable pedal height stop facility (41), which can also be used as a safety
feature to lock the knife block and knives in the down position.
