BERLIN 

 HARDWOOD 

 MATCHERS 



Our fast-feed machiDes are being run in some of these plants 

 at 120 feet per minute, producing perfectly finished flooring, with- 

 out scrapers. The reasons for this quality of work are outlined in 

 the machine construction, which is as follows: 



1 — 6-Bitted cylinder heads with self-hardening steel knives. Most perfect head on 



the market. 

 2 — 12-bitted side-heads, only ]2-bitted side-heads in the world. Self-hardening 



steel bits. Practically 2A edges cutting. Side head "Jointer" trues each bit. 

 3 — Grinders and Jointers for cylinder head knives. Enables the operator to keep 



the knives to a perfect cuttlne edge without removal from the htad. 

 4 — Only successful Roller-Hold -Down between side -heads. Powerful and a 



thorough success. 

 5 — Automobile chain drive. No train of tears. Silent running, accessible, never 



gives trouble. 

 6 — Fast-feed matcher legs, with special step-bearing. Vertical adjustment. 

 7— Reverse Feed Device. If stock splinters, the operator by a lever can instantly 



reverse the direction of feed. 

 8— Eight powerful 10-inch feed rolls. Plenty of power and all transmitted through 



the chain drive. 

 9 — Stationary bottom jointing attachment.
