Safety Instructions For Power Tools

SECTION 1: SAFETY

For Your Own Safety Read Instruction

Manual Before Operating This Equipment

Indicates an imminently hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
WILL result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
COULD

result in death or serious injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
MAY

result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert

against unsafe practices.

This symbol is used to alert the user to useful information about
proper operation of the equipment.

The purpose of safety symbols is to attract your attention to possible hazardous conditions.
This manual uses a series of symbols and signal words which are intended to convey the level
of importance of the safety messages. The progression of symbols is described below.
Remember that safety messages by themselves do not eliminate danger and are not a substi­tute for proper accident prevention measures.

9. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make

sure your extension cord is in good condi­tion. Conductor size should be in accor­dance with the chart below. The amperage
rating should be listed on the motor or tool
nameplate. An undersized cord will cause
a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of
power and overheating. Your extension
cord must also contain a ground wire and
plug pin. Always repair or replace exten­sion cords if they become damaged.

Minimum Gauge for Extension Cords

10. WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear

loose clothing, gloves, neckties, rings,
bracelets, or other jewelry which may get
caught in moving parts. Non-slip footwear
is recommended. Wear protective hair cov­ering to contain long hair.

11. ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also

use face or dust mask if cutting operation
is dusty. Everyday eyeglasses only have
impact resistant lenses, they are NOT
safety glasses.

12. SECURE WORK. Use clamps or a vise to

hold work when practical. It’s safer than
using your hand and frees both hands to
operate tool.

13. NEVER OVERREACH. Keep proper foot-

ing and balance at all times.

Safety Instructions For Power Tools

14. MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep

tools sharp and clean for best and safest
performance. Follow instructions for lubri­cating and changing accessories.

15. DISCONNECT TOOLS before servicing

and changing accessories, such as blades,
bits, cutters, and the like.

16. REDUCE THE RISK OF UNINTENTION­AL STARTING. Make sure switch is in off

position before plugging in. Also, the mag­netic switch on this machine may start if the
switch gets bumped hard enough.

17. USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES.

Consult the owner’s manual for recom­mended accessories. The use of improper
accessories may cause risk of injury.

18. CHECK DAMAGED PARTS. Before fur­ther use of the tool, a guard or other part
that is damaged should be carefully
checked to determine that it will operate
properly and perform its intended function.
Check for alignment of moving parts, bind­ing of moving parts, breakage of parts,
mounting, and any other conditions that
may affect its operation. A guard or other
part that is damaged should be properly
repaired or replaced.

19. NEVER LEAVE TOOL RUNNING UNAT­TENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Do not

leave tool until it comes to a complete stop.

20. NEVER USE UNDER THE INFLUENCE of
alcohol or drugs, or when tired.

21. NEVER ALLOW UNSUPERVISED OR
UNTRAINED PERSONNEL TO OPER­ATE THE MACHINE. Make sure any

instructions you give in regards to the oper­ation of the machine are approved, correct,
safe, and clearly understood.

Additional Safety Instructions For The Shaper

1. DO NOT PLACE YOUR HANDS WITHIN
6 INCHES of the cutters. Never pass your

hands directly over or in front of the cutter.
As one hand approaches the 6-inch radius
point, move it in an arc motion away from
the cutter to the outfeed side and reposi­tion that hand more than 6 inches beyond
the cutter.

2. DO NOT SHAPE STOCK SHORTER
THAN 6 INCHES without special fixtures

or jigs. Where practical, shape longer
stock and cut to size.

3. BLIND CUT WHENEVER POSSIBLE.

This keeps the cutter on the underside of
the workpiece and provides a distance
guard for the operator.

4. ALWAYS ROTATE THE SPINDLE BY
HAND, with the machine unplugged, to

test any new setup to ensure proper cutter
clearance before starting the machine.

5. WHEN SHAPING CONTOURED WORK

and using a rub collar, DO NOT start out at
a corner. See the rub collar section further
on in the manual. The danger of kick-back
is increased when the stock has knots,
holes, or foreign objects in it. Warped
stock should be run through a jointer
before you run it through a shaper.

6. KEEP ANY UNUSED PORTION OF THE
CUTTER BELOW THE TABLE SUR­FACE.

7. NEVER ATTEMPT TO REMOVE TOO
MUCH MATERIAL IN ONE PASS. Several

light passes are safer and give a cleaner
finish.

8. THE USE OF PUSH STICKS AS SAFETY
DEVICES in some applications is smart; in

others it can be quite dangerous. If the
push stick comes in contact with the cutter
on the end grain, it can fly out of your hand
like a bullet—potentially causing serious
injury. We recommend using some type of
fixture, jig, or hold-down device as a safer
alternative. Use a guard, or other type of
protective device at all times.

9. ALWAYS FEED AGAINST THE ROTA­TION OF THE CUTTER.

10. USE OVERHEAD GUARD WHEN FENCE
IS NOT IN PLACE.

11. NEVER OPERATE THE SHAPER WITH­OUT THE SECOND LOCKING NUT IN
PLACE over the spindle nut.

Like all power tools, there is danger asso­ciated with the Model G0510 Shaper.
Accidents are frequently caused by lack of
familiarity or failure to pay attention. Use
this tool with respect and caution to lessen
the possibility of operator injury. If normal
safety precautions are overlooked or
ignored, serious personal injury may occur.

No list of safety guidelines can be complete.
Every shop environment is different. Always
consider safety first, as it applies to your
individual working conditions. Use this and
other machinery with caution and respect.
Failure to do so could result in serious per­sonal injury, damage to equipment or poor
work results.

SECTION 3: CIRCUIT REQUIREMENTS

110V Operation

The Model G0510 Shaper motor is prewired to
operate at 110V and includes a 110V plug similar
to the illustration in Figure 1.

Under normal 110V use, the motor draws approx­imately 10 amps. We recommend a 15 amp circuit
breaker or a 15 amp slow-blow fuse.

We recommend using a dedicated circuit, (i.e.,
the Model G0510 should provide the only draw
from that circuit). If frequent circuit failures occur
when using the shaper, contact our Service
Department or your local electrical contractor.

Figure 1. Typical 110V 3-prong plug and outlet.

NOTICE

The Model G0510 cannot be rewired for
220V operation! Attempting to do this will
void the warranty and will ruin the machine.

Grounding

In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,
grounding provides electric current a path of least
resistance to reduce the risk of electric shock.

This tool is equipped with an electric cord having
an equipment grounding conductor. Improper
connections of the electrical-grounding conductor
can result in the risk of electric shock. The con­ductor with green or green and yellow striped
insulation is the electrical grounding conductor. If
repair or replacement of the electric cord or plug
is necessary, do not connect the equipment
grounding conductor to a live terminal.

We have covered some basic electrical
requirements for the safe operation of your
machine. These requirements are not nec­essarily comprehensive. You must be sure
that your particular electrical configuration
complies with local and state codes. Ensure
compliance by checking with your local
municipality or a licensed electrician.

If you find it necessary to use an extension
cord with this machine:

• Only use a cord that is rated for hard service

(Grade S).

• Only use a cord that contains a grounding

prong.

• Use at least a 18 gauge cord if the cord is 25

feet long or less.

• Use at least a 16 gauge cord if the cord is

between 26-50 feet.

• Use at least a 14 gauge cord if the cord is

between 51-100 feet.

Extension Cords

This machine must have a ground prong in
the plug to help ensure that it is grounded.
DO NOT remove the ground prong from plug
to fit into a two-pronged outlet! If the plug
will not fit the outlet, have the proper outlet
installed by a qualified electrician.

Electrocution or fire may
result if this machine is
not grounded correctly.
Verify that any existing
electrical outlet and circuit
you intend to plug into is
actually grounded. DO
NOT use the machine if it
is not grounded.

Check with a qualified electrician or one of our
service personnel if the grounding instructions are
not completely understood, or if you are in doubt
as to whether the tool is properly grounded.
