The FELDER WP-HW window set for the most distinct windows worldwide!
Dear FELDER customer,
The FELDER-construction manual is a technical
documentation on the field of application of the
FELDER WP-HW window set.
Some of the illustrated work processes and options
for the production of windows, French doors, and
sun rooms are supported in part by FELDER-tooling

not included in the standard shipment of the FELDER

WP-HW window set (item no. 04.2.310)! Please
refer to the tooling summary on page 16.
Our consultants are at your disposal for any
questions that may arise.
Your FELDER Team
IMPORTANT: As this is a European style system the
metric measurement is appropriate for accuracy and
should be used.

The FELDER-WP-HW window tooling set

The FELDER WP-HW window tooling set enables
production of windows, French doors, and sun
rooms according to construction design.

Working with the FELDER

WP-HW Window Tooling Set

IV 78 with Euro-Rebate

The FELDER WP-HW window tooling set is exceedingly user-friendly and precise. This set is especially
designed for applications away from line production
and allows you to custom build windows, doors,
and sun rooms. The combination of the cutters
enables production of standard windows in only
7 shaping steps.

With this the construction depth is10 mm

deeper than in commercial window sets. This
allows for the production of energy saving
windows suitable even for low-energy houses.

Construction characteristics of the FELDERIV-78 window with Euro-rebate

IV= Insulation glass
78 = 78 mm timber thickness for frames and
window
Euro-double rebate
All-round weather strips, in sash and frame
U value = 0,9 W/m K (heat transfer coefficient)
with appropriate double glazing
Continuous sealing in the window sash
All values, U-value (heat transfer coefficient), and
sound reduction index are considered standard
values achievable depending on the processing
quality!

Specifications:
All tooling feature solid steel components, equipped
with WP-HW (carbide reversing plate), low kickback
rate, and manual infeed configuration. The WP-HW
assembly guarantees a consistent circular tooling
motion and extends the lifetime of the tool.

Setting up of the tooling

The spindle height adjustment and the setting of the
fence does not need to be changed during the standard production of windows, the spindle and fence
remain in the same position.

Ther FELDER-WP-HW window tooling set allows for

production of windows, French doors, and sun rooms
according to European Quality Standards.

Establishing layout
For European style hinged single and double sash
casement windows we recommend our planning
software available online for free downloading.
Use the drawings and formulas on page 6, 7
(not to scale 1:1) to calculate the cutting measures
for the construction of your window.

Starting point is the outside measure of the frame

respectively.
For other window constructions we suggest you
create a cutting plan.

The proper way to start!
Always pay attention to the right choice of timber
for your window, door, or sunroom project.
No matter the type of wood you decide on, make
sure that the wood moisture is within 12 and 15 %.
This, and the elimination of bad or morbid wood
will guarantee a high quality end product of lasting
reliability for decades to come.
Shaping the frame and sash timber

Layout your window frames and sash.

Next to the choice of timber you can also decide on
the visual appearance of your windows wood grain
by notch positioning. Take your time and layout your
window frames and sash as shown below.
IMPORTANT: The carpenters triangle resides on the
top face during all shaping processes.

The cross section of the frame and the sash timber is

78 x 82 mm. Depending on the finishing you might
calculate a grinding allowance of 0,5 mm.

Using the doweling jig

Doweling:
In addition to the counter profile the corner joints
can be reinforced with dowels. The best way to
do this is by using the special FELDER-doweling jig
(item no. 400-276).

Clip them on for accurate drilling (refer to the online

video at www.feldergroupusa.com) The depth stops
guarantee the exact boring depth.

100 mm

Depending on the counter profile the dowel length may vary:

frame (top):
72 mm

frame bottom:
90 mm

sash: 58 mm

Shaper adjustment
The adjustments for the entire production process
of one workpiece are done only once. The spindle
height and cutting depth adjustments are done only
one time.

Adjustment of the cutting depth

The shaper fence has to be 120 mm away from the
shaper spindle arbor. (refer to drawing)

Adjustment of shaper spindle height:

The shaper spindle height is adjusted by making test
cuts according to drawing.
NOTE: Make sure top and bottom edge of tool is in
correct position to the workpiece!

speed:
Always pay attention that the rotation speed on your
shaper is adjusted according to indications on the
cutterhead.
ATTENTION:
Always use all safety and accident prevention
precautions available to you.

Glazing bead groove cut

glazing bead:
Glazing bead grooves have to measure 26 x 18 mm,
either shape or use the FELDER narrow cut sawblade
(item no. 03.01.30024) to rip the glazing beads

sash:

from the stiles and rails of the sash and frame

according to illustration below.

Frame:

The glazing bead groove is

ripped from all sides of the
sash (stiles and rails).

The glazing bead groove can

only be ripped from the stiles
and the top rail!

ATTENTION! Do NOT rip

glazing bead groove from
bottom rail of frame!
