ADDiTiONAL SAFETY iNSTRUCTIONS

FOR WOOD SHAPER

CAUTION: Turn motor switch "OFF" and disconnect 19, NEVER perform freehand shaping - Use either the

Power Cord when changing Shaper cutters or making adju st ments.

Safety is a combination of operator common sense and alertness at all times when the Wood Shaper is being used,

WARNING: FOR YOUR OWN SAFETY, DO NOT

ATTEMPT TO OPERATE YOUR WOOD SHAPER UNTIL IT IS COMPLETLY ASSEMBLED AND INSTALLED

ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS... AND UNTIL YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE

FOLLOWl NG: PAGE

1. General Safety Instructions for Power Tools ..... 2

2. Getting to Know your Wood Shaper ............ 12

3. Basic Wood Shaper Operation ................. 15

4. Maintenance .............................. 19

5. Stability of Machine

The Shaper must be bolted securely to a stand or work

bench, in addition, if there is any tendency for the

Shaper to tip over or move during certain operations, it should be bolted to the floor.

6. Location

The Shaper should be positioned so neither the operator nor a casual observer is forced to stand in line with the workpiece when straight line shaping. This

Shaper is intended for indoor use only.

7. Protection: Eyes, Hands, Face, Ears, Body Wear safety goggles that comply with ANSI Z87.1

1968. Wear ear plugs or muffs during extended periods

of operation. Do not wear gloves ... roll long sleeves above the elbow.

8. Afways feed against rotation of the cutter. NEVER "back up" the workpiece.

9. Do not take deep cuts or feed the stock too rapidly.

10. Be particularly careful in shaping wood that contains cross grains or knots, as these may cause the hands to

be thrown into the cutter or cause kickbacks.

11. Before applying power, make sure the keyed washer is

installed immediately under the spindle nut and the

spindle nut is securely fastened, and all guards are in the

proper position. Make sure cutters are sharp.

12. Avoid awkward hand positions, where a sudden slip could cause a hand to move into the cutter. Never reach

in back of or around the cutter with either hand to hold down the workpiece.

13. Accumulations of stock or of finished work should not

be allowed on the table. Never clear table while cutter is rotating.

14. Rubbish, shavings, stock, or other objects or material

should not be allowed on the floor where they may be a

tripping hazard.

15. Use working forms, patterns or holders wherever

possible, and keep them maintained. Care should be taken that the work is securely fastened in these

fixtures. Stock is often of such size or shape that it must be clamped in a holder before being shaped, The inside jaws which clamp directly against the stock should be lined with sand paper. Guards may also be mounted on a holder to afford additional protection.

t6. When the fence is used, make sure it is securely fastened

and will not slip, and is properly adjusted.

t7. Do not wear gloves, neckties, loose sleeves, or ragged or

torn clothing of any kind. Wear safety goggles complying with ANSI Z87.1-1968 to protect your eyes from dust or flying particles.

18. DO NOT perform layout, assembly, or set-up work on the table while the cutting toot is rotating.

fence, or a starting pin in the table and a collar on the spindle, or a pattern.

20. Do not place your fingers or hands near edge of material being cut.

21. NEVER perform irregular shaping operations with the cutter guard removed. Be positive it is installed and adjusted per instructions.

22. NEVER perform internal shaping operations on this Shaper.

23. Do not use your hands to remove objects or materials from around cutters; use a brush.

24. Do not tamper with guards nor make them inoperative in any way.

25. ALWAYS joint or plane edge on surface of workpiece that will be in contact with fence and/or table.

26. NEVER attempt to shape warped or twisted or bowed work pieces.

27. Before leaving the machine, make sure the motor switch is "OFF" the power cord is disconnected from the

power source, and the cutter has stopped revofving.

28. Never operate the Shaper without a protective cover on

the unused shaft end of a double ended motor.

29. If any part of this Shaper should break, bend, or fai! in any way or any electrical component fail to perform

properly, or if any is missing, shut off power switch, remove power supply cord from power supply and

replace damaged missing and/or failed parts before resuming operation.

WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW FAMILIARITY (GAINED

FROM FREQUENT USE OF YOUR WOOD SHAPER) TO BECOME COMMONPLACE. ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT A CARELESS FRACTION OF A SECOND IS SUFFICIENT TO INFLICT SEVERE INJURY.

30. Note and follow Safety Instructions that appears on the

Shaper fence.

CONNECTING TO POWER SOURCE OUTLET

This machine must be grounded while in use to protect the operator from efectr:ic shock.

Plug power cord into a 120V properly grounded type outlet protected by a t5 amp dual element time delay or circuit

saver fuse or circuit breaker. If you are not sure that your outlet is properly grounded, have it checked by a qualified

electrician.

WARNING: DO NOT PERMIT FINGERS TO TOUCH THE TERMINALS OF PLUGS WHEN INSTALLING OR

REMOVING THE PLUG TO OR FROM THE OUTLET,

WARNING: IF NOT PROPERLY GROUNDED THIS POWER TOOL CAN INCUR THE POTENTIAL HAZARD

OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK. PARTICULARLY WHEN

USED IN :DAMP LOCATIONS |N PROXIMITY TO PLUMBING. IF A:N ELECTRICAL SHOCK OCCURS

THERE IS THE POTENTIAL OF A SECONDARY HAZARD SUCH AS YOUR HANDS CONTACTING THE CUTTER BLADE.

If power cord is worn or cut, or damaged in any way, have it

replaced immediately.

Yourshaper is wired for 120 volts and h_s a plug th at looks like the one shown below.

If the outlet you are planning to use for this power tool is of the two prong type DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER

THE GROUNDING PRONG IN ANY MANNER. Use an adapter as shown and always connect the grounding lug to

known ground. tt is recommended that you have a qualified electrician

replace the TWO prong outlet with a properly grounded THREE prong outlet.

A temporary adapter as shown below is available for connecting plugs to 2=prong receptacles. The green

grounding tug extending from the adaptor must be connected to a permanent ground such as to a properly

grounded outlet box. A temporary adapter as illustrated is available for

connecting plugs to 2-prong receptacles, The temporary

adapter should be used only until a properly grounded

outlet can be installed by a qualified electrician.

INSTALLING ELEVATING ROD

AND TABLE SUPPORT

Position table upside down on 2 x 4's on edge for support and clearance for Spindle assembly.

1. Install (3/8-24) jam nut on short threaded end of elevating rod and screw the rod into the threads in the side of spindle assembly.

2. Remove spindle lock knob. Insert the spindle assembly

into the table support, position the long angle of the elevating rod straight down and tighten jam nut securely. The angle portion of elevating rod must be

parallel with spindle assembly.

3. Install knob on end of elevating rod.

4. Rotate the set screw into the table support, while moving the elevating rod back and forth, until the dog point on end of set screw enters the elevating slot in

spindie assembly. This can be felt as the set screw and spindle assembly are rotated. Tighten the set screw,

then back it off 1/4 turn. This will allow enough clearance for the spindle assembly slot to slide on

dog-point end of set screw.

5. Check operation of spindle several times, by moving elevating control lever back and forth in order to make sure it is not binding, yet slides effectively on the dog-point end of screw. Readjust set screw slightly, if

required, for smooth operation.

Reinstall spindle lock knob.

, Position shaper base on table support casting so the

three mounting holes are aligned. Install and tighten the three 5/!6-18 × 3/4-inch hex-head screws with lock

washers.

MOUNTING BELT GUARD AND MOTOR

TO MOTOR MOUNT

1. Place the motor mount on your workbench.

2. Support rear of motor mount with 3/4" stock as shown.

3. Find four 5/16" x 18 x 1-1/4 carriage bolts, four 5/16-18 hex nuts, and two 21/64 x 3/4 x t/16 Flat

2. Roll the belt onto spindle pulley, pull motor mount plate toward end of base until belt is tight enough to prevent slipping and tighten the two bolts. Each bolt

should be in approximately the same position in the base slots.

3o Position elevating rod in approximate mid position and

turn spindle pulley by hand several times to see that the belt rides in the approximate mid position of motor

pulley. If not, recheck assembly. The belt should change positions on motor pulley as the lever position is changed (while the spindle pulley is rotated by hand).
