Hi everyone,
I've hunted online, but not been able to find a manual for my under pinner, which is a:
Orteguil GP81.

She's an oldie, but a goodie, I'd just feel a bit more comfortable if I had a user manual. Does anyone have one of these they could scan for me? Pretty please. Or a tip of where else to look?

We have a useful library of manuals on this forum. The two linked in this discussion are the same two in the library, for this model.

In case you ever need other documents, here is a link:

Hi I

I am not familiar with that machine but maybe this can help.
I've used ITW Mitre Mite, Cassese etc. but not that one.

I just looked at that site and there's not much there unfortunately...

Hi thank you, this was helpful, but I'm still struggling setting it up. Maybe if there is someone out there that I could ask, I would be most grateful if they could get in touch with me. Cheers, Clive

Hi Alison, I just bought a second hand Orteguil GP81 underpinner that needs setting up and adjusting, if you have any information regarding the loading of the v-nails (pins) I would be grateful to hear. Does it have a separate magazine or do they just go into the steel plate. I am struggling with the instructions d) on the operating instructions. Thanks, Clive

Hi Clive we have been struggling too. I have had it working with just the v nails inserted into the pate area at the back by pulling the wire back and dropping them into it. They are not in a magazine. regards

Thank you Alison for your help. I am still interested what you think about (no d on the operating instructions) the size of the pin matching the plate, as I didn't get any plates. Wondering if I have to make some plates. Thanks, Clive
 
If you find a more complete manual, please share it so we can put it in the library.
