Abstract
A ski waxing machine comprises a housing with an oblong opening in the upper wall. The length and the width of the opening corresponds to the length and the width of a pair of skis arranged side by side. A plurality of supporting elements are arranged within the housing and project into the opening. The skis secured on the feet of a skier are supported by the supporting elements. A guide block can be reciprocated within the housing carrying waxing devices, which project upwards into the opening. The supporting elements can be temporarily removed out of the moving path of the guide block and waxing devices upon approach thereof and are automatically reset into the supporting position after the guide block has passed.
