    Default Durden Pacemaker UP 12-600

    Hello fellow wood workers. This is my first post as a new member I recently retired and although advanced in years I have started to set up a small workshop. I have just bought a Durden Pacemaker UP 12-600 in excellent condition, originally purchased new in 1986. If anyone knows how to use the moulder I would be grateful for any advice. I would also love to find any of the Durden accessories that were offered at the time, particularly the borer-sander.

    The moulding Head attaches on to the Buzzer shaft ( A slotted collar )and utilises the the the two small tables, it uses HSS blades ( no longer available ) you will have to grind them yourself of or have them made at you local sharpening/saw doctor, most items you will need to fabricate or have fabricated. I am wrecking one the moment, I don't have any cutters

    Hi from another new member, also with a Durden Pacemaker UP12-600. I think it's a relatively recent one (in Durden terms) - it looks exactly like the one on the front of the manual that's uploaded to this site. I've had mine for several years and absolutely love it. Unfortunately I was using it today to rip a piece of 90mm pine down to 80mm and the motor cut out when I was about a foot into the piece. I'm just wondering if anyone knows if there's an overload cutout on these machines and if so, whether any steps (other than time) are required to reset it? And a big thank you to whoever posted the Durden manual to this site. I've just downloaded it and it's an absolute godsend! Thanks again

    There may be a overload button on the motor (look for a small red button) , if not maybe just time to allow it to cool down, 90 mm would almost the limit for that machine, also could a faulty switch, capacitor, wiring, or the motor itself
