Warning
Wear eye protection .
Be sure keyed washer is di rect ly under the spindle nut and the spindle nut is tight.
Feed the workpiece ag ain st th e rotat io n o f the cutter.
Do not use awkward hand position s.
Keep fingers away fro m the revol vin g cu tter. Use fixtures when necessary.
Use the overhead guard when the adjustable fence is not in place.
• KEEP GUARDS IN PLACE and in working order.
• REMOVE ADJUSTING KEYS AND WRENCHES. Form a habit of checking to see that keys and
adjusting wrenche s are removed from the machine before t ur ning it on.
• KEEP THE WORK AREA CLEAN. Cluttered areas and benches i nv ite accidents.
• DON’T USE IN A DANGEROUS ENVIRONMENT. Don’t use power tools i n dam p or wet l oc ations,
or expose them to rain. Keep work area well lighted.
• KEEP CHILDREN AWAY. All visitors should be kept a safe dist anc e from the work area.
• MAKE THE WORKSHOP KIDPROOF with padlocks, master swatches, or by rem ov i ng star ter keys.

designed.
•USE THE RIGHT MACHINE. Don’t for c e a machine or attachment to do a job for which it was not
designed.
•U SE THE PROPER EX TENSI ON C ORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When
using an extensi on c or d, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your m ac hine will
draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in the line voltage resul ting in power loss and
overheating. The table below shows the correct si ze to use depending on cord length and nam eplate
ampere rati ng. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge. The sm aller the gauge, the heavier the cor d.
Volts Total Length of Cord in Feet

•WEAR PROPER APPAREL. Do not wear loose clothing, gl ov es, nec k ties, rings, bracelets, or other
jewelry which may get caught in moving parts. Nonslip footwear is recommended. Wear protective
hair covering to contain long hair.
•ALWAYS USE SAFETY GLASSES. Also use face or dust masks if the cutting operation is dusty.
Everyday eyeglasses only have impact resistant lenses; they are not safet y gl asses.
•SECURE WORK. Use cl am ps or a vise to hold work when pract ical. It’s safer than using y our hand
and it frees both hands to operat e the tool.
•DON’T OVERRE ACH. Keep pr oper footing and balance at all times.

•MAINTAIN TOOLS WITH CARE. Keep tools sharp and cl ean for best and safest performanc e.
Follow instructions for lubricati ng and c hanging accessories.
• ALWAYS DISCO NNE CT T HE MACHINE FROM THE POWER SOURCE BEFORE SE RVICI NG.
• REDUCE THE RIS K OF UNINTENTIONAL STARTING. Make sure the switch is in the off positi on
before pluggi ng i n.
•USE RECOMMENDED ACCESSORIES. Consult the operator’s manual for recommended
accessories. The use of im pr oper ac cessories may cause risk of injury to persons.
•NEVER STAND ON A MACHINE. Serious injury could occur if the machine tips or if the blade/cutter
is unintenti onally contacted.
•CHECK DAMAGED PART S. Befor e further use of the machine, 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 movi ng parts, br eak age of parts,
mounting, and any ot her c onditions that may affect its operation. A guard or other part that is
damaged should be properly repaired or replaced.
• DIRECTION OF FEED. Feed work into the cutt er against the direction of r otation of the cutter only.
• NEVER LEAVE THE MACHINE RUNNING UNATTENDED. TURN POWER OFF. Don’t leave the
machine until it com es to a c om plete stop.
• DO NOT OPERATE this machine while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.
• DUST CAUTION. Some dust created by power sanding, sawing, gr inding, drilling and other
constructi on ac tivities contains chemicals known to cause cancer, bi r th defects or other reproductive
harm. Some exampl es of these chemicals are:
• Lead from lead based paint.
• Crystalline silica from bricks, cemen t and other masonry products.
• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk of exposure varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your exposure to
these chemicals, work in a well-ventilated area and work with approved safety equipment, such as face or
dust masks that are specifically designed to filter out microscopic particles.
Familiarize yourself with the following safety notices used in this manual:
This means that if precautions are not heeded, it m ay result in mi nor injury a nd/or possib le

be made by a qualified electrician in
compliance with all relevant codes. This
machine must be properly grounded to help
prevent electrical shock and possible fatal
injury.
115 Volt Operation
As received from the factory, yo ur shaper is ready
to run at 115 volt operation. This shaper, when
wired for 115 volt, is intended for use on a circuit
that has an outlet and a plug that looks the one
illustrated in Figure A. A tem porary adapter, whic h
looks like the adapter as illustrated in Figure B,
may be used to connect this plug to a two-pole
receptacle, as shown in Figure B if a properly
grounded outlet is not available. The temporary
adapter should only be used until a properly
grounded outlet can be installed by a qualified
electrician. This adapter is not applicable in Canada. The gree n colored rigid ear, lug, or tab,
extending from the adapter, must be connected to
a permanent ground such as a prope rly grounded
outlet box, as shown in Figure B.
230 Volt Operation
If 230V, singl e phase operat ion is desired, the
following inst r uc tions must be followed:
1. Disconnect the machine from the power
source.
2. This shaper is supplied with six motor l eads
that are connected for 115V operation, as
shown in Figure C. Reconnect these six
motor leads for 230V operation, as shown
in Figure D.
3. The 115V attachment plug, supplied with
the shaper, must be replaced with a
UL/CSA listed plug suitable for 230V
operation. Thi s plug is illustrated i n Fig. E.
Contact your l ocal Authorized JET S ervic e
Center or qualified electrician for proper
procedures to i nstall the plug. T he shaper
must comply with all local and national
codes after the 230 volt plug is installed.
4. The shaper with a 230 volt plug should onl y
be connected to an out let havi ng the same
configuration as illustrated by the grounded
outlet box in Figure E. No adapter is
available or should be used with the 230
volt plug.
Figure A
Figure B
Important: In all cases (115 or 230 volts), make
certain the receptacle in question is properly
grounded. If you are not sure, have a registered
electrician check the receptacle.
