Warnings

1. Read and understand the entire owner's manual before attempting assembly or operation.

2. Read and understand the warnings posted on the machine and in this manual. Failure to comply with

all of these warnings may cause serious injury.

3. Replace the warning labels if they become obscured or removed.

4. This shaper is designed and intended for use by properly trained and experienced personnel only. If

you are not familiar with the proper and safe operation of a shaper, do not use until proper training and knowledge have been obtained.

5. Do not use this shaper for other than its intended use. If used for other purposes, WMH Tool Group

disclaims any real or implied warranty and holds itself harmless from any injury that may result from that use.

6. Always wear approved safety glasses/face shields while using this shaper. Everyday eyeglasses only

have impact resistant lenses; they are not safety glasses.

7. Before operating this shaper, remove tie, rings, watches and other jewelry, and roll sleeves up past

the elbows. Remove all loose clothing and confine long hair. Non-slip footwear or anti-skid floor strips are recommended. Do not wear gloves.

8. Wear ear protectors (plugs or muffs) during extended periods of operation.

9. Some dust created by power sanding, shaping, grinding, drilling and other construction activities

contain chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:

• Lead from lead based paint.

• Crystalline silica from bricks, cement and other masonry products.

• Arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.

10. 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.

11. Do not operate this machine while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or any medication.

12. Make certain the machine is properly grounded.

13. Make all machine adjustments or maintenance with the machine unplugged from the power source. A

machine under repair should be RED TAGGED to show it must not be used until maintenance is complete.

14. Remove adjusting keys and wrenches. Form a habit of checking to see that keys and adjusting

wrenches are removed from the machine before turning it on.

15. Keep safety guards in place at all times when the machine is in use. If removed for maintenance

purposes, use extreme caution and replace the guards immediately.

16. Check damaged parts. Before 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 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.

17. Provide for adequate space surrounding work area and non-glare, overhead lighting.

18. Keep the floor around the machine clean and free of scrap material, oil and grease.

19. Keep visitors a safe distance from the work area. Keep children away.

20. Make your workshop child proof with padlocks, master switches or by removing safety keys.

21. Give your work undivided attention. Looking around, carrying on a conversation and “horse-play” are

careless acts that can result in serious inj ury.

22. Maintain a balanced stance at all times so that you do not fall or lean against the blade or other

moving parts. Do not overreach or use excessive force to perform any machine operation.

23. Use the right tool at the correct speed and feed rate. Do not force a tool or attachment to do a job for

which it was not designed. The right tool will do the job better and safer.

24. Use recommended accessories; improper accessories may be hazardous.

25. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutter sharp and clean for the best and safest performance. Follow

instructions for lubricating and changing accessories.

26. Check the cutter for cracks or missing teeth. Do not use a cracked cutter or one with missing teeth or

improper set. Make sure the cutter is securely locked on the arbor.

27. Keep hands clear of the cutter area. Do not reach past the cutter to clear parts or scrap with the

shaper running. Avoid awkward operations and hand positions where a sudden slip could cause your hand to contact the cutter.

28. Do not attempt to shape boards with loose knots or with nails or other foreign material, on its surface.

Do not attempt to shape twisted, warped, bowed or “in wind” stock unless one edge has been jointed for guiding purposes prior to shaping.

29. Do not attempt to shape long or wide boards unsupported where spring or weight could cause the

board to shift position.

30. Always use safety devices for all operations where they can be used.

31. Be sure to check the direction of spindle rotation before use.

32. Turn off the machine before cleaning. Use a brush or compressed air to remove chips or debris — do

not use your hands.

33. Do not stand on the machine. Serious injury could occur if the machine tips over.

34. Never leave the machine running unattended. Turn the power off and do not leave the machine until it

comes to a complete stop.

35. Remove loose items and unnecessary work pieces from the area before starting the machine.

Familiarize yourself with the following safety notices used in this manual:

This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in minor injury and/or

possible machine damage.

This means that if precautions are not heeded, it may result in serious injury or possibly

even death.

Short stock – Never shape stock less than 12 inches in length without special fixtures. Where practical, shape longer stock and cut to size.

12 inch rule – When shaping, never allow your hands to come closer than 12 inches to the cutters.

Hand safety – Never pass the hands directly over, or in front of, the cutters (Figure A). As one hand approaches the 12 inch radius point, remove it (or the push stick) in an arc motion and reposition hands 12 inches beyond the cutters.

Blind cut – When blind cutting, the workpiece is positioned on top of the template. This keeps the cutter(s) cutting only the underside of the workpiece and provides a "distance" guard for the operator.

Cutter Clearance – With the power disconnected, always rotate the spindle by hand with any new set-up to ensure proper clearance with the cutters. At the same time, check to be sure the cutterhead is turning in the correct direction.

Stock feed – Feed stock opposite to the direction of the cutter rotation (Figure B). Never back stock out of the cutter once the cut has been started. Instead, pull the stock straight out away from cutter and begin the cut again.

Guide pin – Whenever possible, use a guide pin when performing pattern shaping and collar shaping operations.

Tool maintenance – Clean and sharp tools give safer and better performance. Dull tools can cause kickbacks and excessive chatter. Before making a cut, always check the condition and adjustment of the tools. Never use a tool that is not balanced and rated for the selected RPM.

Spindle speed – Do not operate tools at speeds higher than rated by the manufacturer.

Cutter selection – Use only those cutters designed to be used on the machine, and mount only safety type cutters on the spindle.

Stock condition – The danger of kicked-back stock can occur when the stock has knots, holes, or foreign objects such as nails. Warped or in-wind stock should first be jointed on one surface before attempting to use it on the shaper.

Electrical connections must

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.

General Information

A power plug is not provided with the Model JWS35X. You may either connect the proper UL/CSA listed plug or “hardwire” the machine directly to your electrical panel provided there is a disconnect near the machine for the operator. Consult electrical drawings on pages 45-46 for further clarification of wiring setup.

This machine must be grounded. Grounding provides a path of least resistance to help divert current away from the operator in case of electrical malfunction.

Make sure the voltage of your power supply matches the specifications on the motor plate of the machine.

Coplanar Adjustment

6. Remove both fences (J

, J2) and place the

straightedge against the infeed and outfeed

fence castings (Figure 8). Coplanar Alignment Read step 7 completely before attempting.

7. Maintain steady pressure of the straightedge

against the fence castings (K, Fig. 8). At the

same time, attempt to bring both fences into

alignment as shown in Figure 9. This is

accomplished by alternately making

incremen-tal adjustments to two setscrews

(M, Fig. 10) on the front face of the casting (L,

Fig. 10) with a 3mm hex wrench, followed by

repositioning the casting with the ram adjust

dial (Q, Fig. 10) as required.

Important: It is recommended that the

adjustment setscrews (M, Fig. 10) be rotated

Figure 10

in 1/16th increments or less at a time.

Fence perpendicular to table

The outfeed fence must also be perpendicular to the table. This can be checked as follows:

8. Place a square against the casting (L, Fig.

10) and table.

9. If adjustment is required, adjust setscrews N

(Fig. 10). Alignment is complete when both fence castings

are coplanar (in-line) as shown in Figure 9 and the outfeed fence is perpendicular to the table.

10. Replace both fences and secure.

Ram Dial Calibration

The cutter guard should be removed or raised to provide clearance.

Referring to Figure 11:

1. Loosen the ram dial lock knob (B).

2. Adjust the outfeed ram dial (A) fully

clockwise.

3. With a straightedge (F) pressed against both

infeed and outfeed fences (D, E, G) as

reference, both fences should be in-line as

shown and the scale (C) should indicate zero. If step 3 can be successfully achieved, no

calibration is required. If the fences cannot be brought into alignment (L),

adjust as follows:

4. Remove fences (D, E).

5. Using a 10mm wrench, loosen the lock nut

(O, Fig. 10) that secures the zero stop set-

screw (P, Fig, 10) on the casting (L, Fig. 10).

6. Loosen or tighten the setscrew (P, Fig. 10),

as required, to bring fence castings into

alignment as shown in M.

Note: Ram Dial Adjust (A) is fully clockwise

(from step 2).

7. Tighten lock nut (O, Fig. 10). If the scale (C) does not indicate zero:

8. Loosen two screws (J) that secure the

indicator (H) and adjust until the zero on the

indicator (H) is lined up with the zero on the

scale (K).

9. Tighten screws (J). Repeat steps 2 and 3 to verify that calibration is

Figure 11

successful.

Spindle Gib Adjustment

Referring to Figure 12: The spindle housing gib on your machine is

factory adjusted and initially should not require readjust-ment. After a period of use the gib may wear and become loose, introducing play and potentially causing the spindle (B) to vibrate. This requires adjustment.

To adjust:

1. With a 12mm wrench, loosen jam nuts that

secure the gib setscrews in four places (A).

2. With a 4mm hex wrench, tighten each

setscrew 1/8 or less turn starting with the

lowest one, followed by the uppermost one,

then the two middle setscrews.

If this is not enough to remove the play,

repeat this step until the play is removed. Note: If the gibs are too tight the front handwheel

that controls the spindle height will be difficult to turn.

When adjustment is complete:

3. Hold the set-screws in position with the 4mm

hex wrench to maintain the setting while

tightening the jam nuts with the 12mm

wrench.

Featherboard Hold-downs

Referring to Figure 13: The JWS-35X Shaper comes equipped with two

featherboard hold-downs (A, B) mounted on the infeed and outfeed fences.

1. Loosen lock handles (C) and lock knobs (D).

2. Slide the hold-down guides to the desired

position along the fence and tighten the lock

handles (C).

Figure 12

3. Place the workpiece (E) on the table against

the fence and under the hold-down guide (A).

4. Adjust the featherboard stay to put moderate

pressure on the workpiece, then tighten the

lock knob (D).

Precision Miter Gauge

Setting the miter gauge angle

Referring to Figure 17: The precision miter gauge has a rack and pinion

adjustment for setting the angle. To operate:

1. Slide the miter gauge into one of the slots on the table top.

2. Loosen lock handle (A).

To adjust the body (B) of the miter gauge to the desired angle:

3. Pull the spring-loaded knob (C) out and turn until the body (B) of the miter gauge is at the desired angle as indicated on the scale.

4. Tighten the lock handle (A).

Indent settings

There are indents at the 0º, 30º and 45º right and left positions. At these settings, release the

knob (C) to engage the stop rod. Then tighten the lock handle (A).

Note: Do not rely solely on the indents for an accurate setting. After the stop rod engages at the 0º, 30º and 45º positions, make a fine adjustment with the knob (C) by pulling out and rotating, if necessary, setting it against the scale indicator.

Extension plate

The extension plate (D) can be adjusted by sliding to the right or left or removed entirely.

To adjust – loosen two lock handles (E), position the extension plate and tighten the lock handles.

To remove – slide the extension plate completely off and remove the lock handles (E) and mounting hardware.

Calibrating the miter gauge

1. Place the miter gauge in one of the slots (H) on the table top.

2. Set the miter gauge to 90º (0º setting on the scale) by loosening the lock handle (A), then pulling the spring-loaded knob (C) out and turning the body (B) until 0º is indicated on the scale (F).

Figure 17

5. Tighten the lock handle (A). Verify that the scale indicator (G) reads 0º. If

further adjustment is necessary:

6. Loosen the screw (F) and adjust the indicator (G) until it reads 0º

7. Tighten the screw (F).

3. Measure the accuracy of the gauge against the slot with a combination square.

If adjustment is necessary:

4. Adjust the body (B) until it is perfectly square (90º) to the miter slot (H).

Operating Controls

Start/Stop

Power Indicator Light – The start switch has a

power indicator lamp which is on whenever there is power connected to the shaper, not

just when the shaper is running. Do not assume that no light means there is no power to the machine. If the bulb is bad, there will no

indication. Always check before use.

Do not rely that no light means no power to the machine. Always check for power first. Failure to comply may cause serious injury!

Referring to Figure 18: Start – Press the green start switch (see Note). When power is connected to the machine, the

green light is always on regardless of whether the shaper is running or not.

Note: In addition, the switch on the digital readout must be set to forward (or reverse) and the cabinet door must be closed.

Stop – Press the red switch to stop.

Safety Key

The start/stop switch on the JWS-35X Shaper comes equipped with a magnetic safety key. When in place on the switch as shown in Figure 18 the magnetic safety key trips a relay which will allow the machine to start and stop when the respective switches are pressed. Being magnetic, the lock can be removed to make the machine inoperable and can be hidden for safe storage by attaching it underneath the rail or another magnetic surface.

When using the shaper, place the key on the switch cover lining up the arrow on the key with the REMOVE arrow on the cover. Then rotate the key so the arrow lines up with the LOCK arrow. This will prevent the safety key from coming loose from vibration when the machine is in use.

Reset – In the event that the shaper stops without pressing the stop button, as the result of a tripped fuse or circuit breaker, etc.:

1. Press red button to reset

2. Press the green button to restart the

machine.

Figure 18

Operations

Overview

Before applying power to the machine, Check the motor and switch wiring diagrams for proper voltage connections. Check that all mounting screws and bolts are tight.

Turn on the motor momentarily to check for proper rotation. The spindle should rotate counterclockwise when looking down on the spindle. Correct as required.

Run the machine for a short period of time to ensure that the moving parts are working properly with no excessive vibration. If a problem develops, correct it before turning the shaper over for general use.

Safety Devices

Safety devices such as guards, fixtures, templates hold-downs, push sticks (Figure 19), feather boards and power feeders should be used whenever possible. Figure 19 shows a push stick which can be easily made from scrap wood.

Note: For the sake of clarity, the shaper guard has been omitted from most illustrations. All shaper operations must be done with the proper guard in place and any other device which insures the safety of the operator.

Deep cuts require excessive

horsepower and pushing force to control the cut.

Deep cuts can also cause the wood to splinter or split and may lead to lost control or personal injury. Preband shaper the stock whenever possible to 1/16 inch of finished size. When an edge finish is unsatisfactory, take two or more cuts with the final cut no more than 1/16 inch deep.

In the case of shaping across the grain, the trailing board edge will often splinter. To correct this, the best solution is to make the board 1/4 inch oversize in width, shape the board, and simply trim off the excess.

Cutter Rotation

Counterclockwise Setup – With the cutter installed as shown in Figure 20, feed the workpiece from

right to left.

Grain Direction Considerations

Plan to shape the workpiece in the same direction as the grain when possible. Some open grain woods (such as redwood, fir and oak) will leave a rough, or slightly splintered edge when cut against the grain.

Figure 19

Figure 20

Clockwise Setup – With the cutter installed as shown in Figure 20, feed the workpiece from left to right.

Figure 21

Using the Fence

Using the fence is the safest and most satisfactory method of shaping, and should always be used when the work permits. Almost all straight work can be used with the fence.

For average work, where a portion of the original edge of the work is not to be touched by the cutter, both the front and rear fences are set in a straight line as shown in Figure 22.

When the shaping operation removes the entire edge of the work, e.g. in jointing or making a full bead, the shaped edge will not be supported by the outfeed fence when both fences are in line, Figure 23. In this case, the stock should be advanced to the position shown in Figure 21 and stopped. Turn off the machine and move the outfeed fence forward to contact the workpiece, Figure 24. Remove the workpiece, start the motor, and then continue the operation.

Always remove workpiece before starting the machine! This will prevent kickback and potential serious injury.

Figure 22

Figure 23

Figure 24

"Z" Dimension

Before making a template (or using the edge of the workpiece) for shaper cutting, the "Z" dimension must be established in order to determine the shape and size of the finished stock. The "Z" dimension is the difference between the innermost part of the cutter edge and the outside diameter of the ball bearing follower (collar). See Figure 25.

Note: The "Z" dimension can be either positive or negative.

The "Z" dimension is positive if the cutter is larger than the collar bearing.

The "Z" dimension is negative if the cutter is smaller than the collar bearing.

Depth of Cut

The depth of cut is the distance from the outside circumference edge of the collar (which the work rides against) to the outside edge of the cutter. The depth of cut is determined by the position of the fence relative to the cutterhead and/or by the use of shaper collars (see Figure 26).

Figure 25

Straight Edge Shaping

Straight edge shaping is always performed with the workpiece against the fence. Use only push sticks and hold downs to keep the workpiece on position.

Do not use a miter gauge to feed material along the fence face. The workpiece can bind and cause kickback. Failure to comply may cause serious injury!

To set up:

1. Disconnect or unplug the machine from its

power source.

2. Check to see that the fence faces are parallel,

properly in line or offset if necessary, and securely tightened.

3. Rotate the cutters and inspect for clearance.

4. Lock the spindle.

5. Install all necessary guards.

6. Reconnect power to the machine.

7. Take a trial cut on a piece of scrap the same

thickness as workpiece.

Note: Only a short cut is necessary to determine if the profile, depth, and height of cut is correct.

Figure 26

Edge Shaping

When edge shaping, never attempt to hand guide any stock less than 12 inches long, or narrower than 3 inches without the use of a special guide as shown in Figure 27.

When edge shaping, the work-

piece must be at least 12 inches long unless a special guide is used.

1. Use the hold-ins and hold-downs as shown in

Figure 27 to firmly hold the workpiece down and against the fence. If workpiece is too wide for the hold-ins to be used, clamp a scrap board to the table to substitute for the hold-ins.

2. Check the rotation of the cutter. Be sure to

feed workpiece against rotation of the cutter.

3. Feed the workpiece slowly and steadily with

firm, even pressure to make a smooth cut.

Important: The rate of feed depends on depth of cut and experience of operator.

End Shaping

When end shaping narrow stock, it is important that at least one half of the workpiece end be in contact with either the in-feed or out-feed fence. Use a guide similar to the one shown in Figure 28 which tightly clamps the scrap piece to the workpiece and provides the necessary width.

End shaping a narrow workpiece without a special guide could result in the workpiece rocking into the cutterhead, causing personal injury.

Figure 27

Figure 28

Shaping All Sides

Because cross grain shaping is more likely to create chipping out and splinters on some woods, it is good practice to first shape the cross-grain sides. Any chipping that does occur is taken care of by the with-grain cuts, as shown in Figure 29.

On-Edge Shaping

If the shaper fence does not firmly support wide stock, use the T-slots in the fence to attach a special rigid high fence as shown in Figure 30.

Note: Be sure the screw holes are countersunk in the special fence to avoid interference with the workpiece.

Figure 29

Figure 30

Straight Line Bevel Shaping

To shape a beveled straight edge, use a beveledge shaping jig in combination with the regular fence as shown in Figure 31.

Figure 31

To perform a bevel-edge cut, the in-feed edge of the jig is placed against the infeed fence and clamped to the table as shown in Figure 32. The outfeed fence is moved forward as necessary to compensate for the cut.

Contour Edge Shaping With Collar Bearing

To shape contoured edges, the operator must first remove the fence assembly.

In order to control the workpiece and limit the depth-of-cut, the operator must use an anti-friction collar with the cutter(s) as shown in Figure 33.

Figure 33

The collar may be positioned above or below the cutter(s), and its function is to ride against the workpiece or template. At the same time, the collar will establish the depth-of-cut as shown in Figure 34. Whenever possible, always use the ring guard or safety collar.

Figure 32

Never attempt to bevel cut free hand. Always use a bevel-edge fixture.

Note: Since the collar requires at least 1/8" of

surface edge to ride against, the entire edge cannot be shaped as shown in Figure 35. The added use of a pattern, however, permits the shaping of the entire contour edge.

Figure 34

Figure 35

If the workpiece is to be shaped all around the perimeter, hold it firmly and push the work straight into the cutter until the depth of cut is established by the collar as shown in Figure 36. Continue to feed the work so that the point of contact on the edge is always 90 degrees to the collar (or directly in line with the cutter edge) and held firmly against it.

When the workpiece is not contoured all around, start the cut as shown in Figure 42. With this operation, the workpiece is positioned against the starter pin and the end swung into place to start the cut. When the cut has begun and the workpiece firmly against the collar, swing the stock away from the pin and proceed with cut.

Freehand shaping is extremely dangerous. The operator must be aware at all times of the proximity of his hands to the cutter. Hands must never come closer than 12 inches to the cutter without the proper guard or similar safety device over the cutterhead.

Figure 36

Shaping With Collars

When shaping with collars and starting pin, always adhere to the following rules for good work and safe operation:

The collar must have sufficient bearing surface, as shown in Figure 37. Also, the stock must be fairly heavy in proportion to the cut being made. Under no circumstances should a short, light workpiece be shaped against the collars, as in Figure 38.

Note: The edge of the work to be shaped must be smooth. Any irregularity on the surface which rides against the collar will be duplicated on the molded surface.

Collars must be smooth and free from pitch and other substances.

Position of Collars

Collars may be used above, below or between cutterheads.

1. When the collar is used below the cutter, as

shown in Figure 39, the progress of the cut can be seen throughout the operation. However, any accidental lifting of the work will gouge the wood and ruin the workpiece.

Figure 37

Figure 38

Figure 39

2. When the collar is used above the cutter, as

shown in Figure 40, the cut cannot be seen. But this method offers an advantage in that the cut is not affected by slight variations in the thickness of the stock. Also, accidental lifting of the workpiece will not gouge the workpiece; simply repeat the operation to correct the mistake.

Figure 40

3. Using the collar between the two cutters has

the advantages and disadvantages of the first two procedures, and is frequently used where both edges of the work are to be molded, Figure 41.

Note: It is advisable to place the cutter as low as possible on the spindle to reduce spindle deflection and ensure the best possible finish. Also make sure that the contacting surfaces of the cutter are smooth, clean and without dents.

Starting Pin

Use of the starting pin should only be attempted by advanced users. If you have never used this method, it is recommended you get training from a qualified person. Failure to comply may result in serious injury.

The starting pin is used to support the work when starting the cut.

1. The work should be placed in the position 1,

(Figure 42), using the starting pin as a support

2. Swing the work into the cutter as shown in the

position 2. The work is now supported by the starting pin and the collar.

3. After the cut has been started, the work is

swung free of the starting pin and only rides against the collar (Figure 43). Always feed against the cutterhead rotation.

Figure 41

Figure 42

Figure 43

Arcs and Circles

Large circular and arc-shaped stock can be shaped as described in Contour Edge Shaping on page 24. However, smaller sized stock requires the use of special shaping jigs similar to those shown in Figure 44.

With the entire fence assembly removed, carefully position the jig for desired depth-of-cut and securely clamp to the table.

It is important with the arc and circle shapes that the workpiece, prior to being shaped, must be roughly cut to the desired size and curve of the finished piece. Make sure that the jig curve matches exactly the workpiece curve. At all times keep the workpiece firmly in contact with the jig while the cutter is cutting the stock.

Never perform this type

operation without a ring guard, safety collar or similar safety device over the cutterhead.

Enclosed Edge Shaping

An enclosed workpiece edge is shaped in the same manner as an outside contoured edge except that a starting pin is not required as shown in Figure 45.

Note: If the whole edge is to be shaped, the operator must use a pattern.

Position the workpiece on the table before starting the motor. The operator must do the entire shaping cut by pushing (feeding) the workpiece into the cutter(s).

Enclosed edge shaping is extremely dangerous. The operator must be aware at all times of the direction of feed. Never perform this type operation without a ring guard, safety collar or similar safety device over the cutterhead.

With a firm grip, ease the edge into the cutter(s) until stopped by the collar as shown in Figure 45.

Continue to push straight in while feeding and turning the workpiece at the same time until the cut is finished. Turn off the motor and do not remove workpiece until the cutters have completely stopped.

Never perform enclosed edge

shaping if there is less than two inches of workpiece material all around the opening. Never perform enclosed edge shaping if the workpiece opening is smaller, in any direction, than twice the diameter of the cutter(s).

Figure 44

Figure 45

Templates

The template must be thick enough to provide a solid bearing edge against a collar. When constructing a template similar to the one shown in Figure 46, keep in mind that it serves only as a guide for the cutter.

If the workpiece requires all-around shaping, the template can be constructed from several sections pieced together as shown in Figure 47.

Securing the Template

There are various methods used to secure the template to the workpiece. The experienced operator will choose the most appropriate according to the shape, size, and type construction of the template. For example, if the workpiece is large enough to extend beyond the front of the table and still leave room for the desired cut, it can be securely held to the template with "C" clamps as shown in Figure 48.

Figure 46

Figure 47

In many situations the workpiece is positioned against the template using dowels as anchor points and handles (wood blocks) to assist the operator in guiding the work-piece through the cut as shown in Figure 49.

Figure 48

Figure 49

Special Cuts

The illustrations in this section show the profile, or section, views made by the cutter(s). The most efficient cutters are carbide tipped to ensure clean and long-term cutting. Small cutters may be solid carbide, and some use inserts. Since there are such a wide variety of choices, the operator is limited only by his experience and imagination.

Stacked Cutters

A variety of interesting and timesaving cuts can be made in a single setup by stacking the cutters. When the operator stacks the cutters, extra care should be taken to see that all parts are clean, free of nicks and flaws, and perfectly balanced in the stacked position.

Sash and Door Shaping

Shaping a door requires two operations. Figure 50 shows the sash cut for the first

operation. Figure 51 shows the stock flipped over and the

sash cutter used with a 1/4 inch groove cutter to complete the cut.

Figure 52 shows the first shaping cut with the sash cutter for the matching door stile sash.

Figure 53 shows the same cut with the stock flipped over.

Figure 50

Figure 51

Figure 53

Figure 54 shows the first shaping cut for a window sash stile utilizing a sash cutter, collar, and a 1/2 inch groove cutter.

Figure 52

Figure 54

Figure 55 shows BOTH cuts required for a window sash rail end. The first operation at top is a rabbet cut made with a groove cutter. The second operation is performed with a stub spindle and buttonhead screw.

Butt Joints

All butt-type joints require both work-pieces to be perfectly square and straight-edged.

Glue Butt Joint

To perform a glue butt joint, both fences are kept inline and adjusted for a depth of cut (Figure 56).

The cuts on both work-pieces are part-edge cuts which do not reduce the stock width during the cutting procedure. When shaping the two workpieces, one is fed top-side up; the other is fed bottom-side up.

Tongued Joint

Similar to the glue joint, both fences are kept in-line for the tongued joint and adjusted for a 1/4 inch depth of-cut with no reduction in stock width. With this joint, however, both work-pieces are fed with the same side up as shown in Figure 57.

Drop Leaf Joint

When shaping a drop-leaf joint as shown in Figure 58, the leaf workpiece is shaped with a Drop-Leaf Bead cutter; the table workpiece is shaped with a Drop-Leaf Cove cutter.

Figure 55

Figure 56

Figure 57

With this type joint, the whole edge of both workpieces is shaped, same-side up, and allowance made for a 1/16 inch reduction in width. Adjust the in-feed fence to reduce the workpiece width by 1/16 inch, and adjust the out-feed fence to compensate for stock removed.

Taper Cuts

Taper cuts can be made by offsetting the fences for the amount of taper desired, or with a layout line on the stock which can be paralleled to the infeed fence as shown in Figure 59.

Start the cut by holding the stock against the infeed fence and swinging it into contact with the outfeed fence just past the cutterhead. As the cut is started, transfer pressure to hold the workpiece against the outfeed fence, and continue feeding the workpiece through. After the first cut, the fences will have to be readjusted in order for the second cut (parallel cut) and the final depth-of-cut to remain true with the taper.

Figure 58

Figure 59

Do not use the standard fence for short work (12 inches or less in length on the side to be cut). Instead, use a miter gauge or special fixture to avoid losing control of the workpiece.

Tenoning

The tenoning fixture illustrated in Figure 60 shows a miter gauge equipped with a hold-down for shaping the ends of narrow work-pieces.

The miter gauge can also be adapted to cut square and centered tenons at the ends of legs for tables, chairs, etc. Secure the leg to jig and position for cut as shown in Figure 61.

Make all first cuts with the same jig setting and spindle height. When the first series of cuts have been made, reposition leg on the jig for each succeeding cut.

Figure 60

Note: If the leg is tapered, use a wedge to place the side facing the cutter into a 90 degree vertical position as shown in Figure 62.
