Additional Safety for Dovetail Machines

READ and understand this
entire instruction manual
before using this machine.

SAFETY

GUARD. The guard helps protect the operator

from the spinning cutter and flying debris
during operation. Never operate the dovetail
machine or allow it to be connected to
power when the guard is removed or serious
personal injury may occur.

BOARD EJECTION. The machine may eject

boards in the horizontal position if they are
not clamped securely. Never allow others to
stand directly behind the dovetail machine
during operation or serious injury may occur.

SAFETY GLASSES. Even with the guard in

place, occasional chips may be ejected from
the machine. Operator and bystanders MUST
wear ANSI approved safety glasses to prevent
eye injuries.

CUTTER STARTING POSITION. Starting the

machine with the cutter against a workpiece
or fence may eject debris from the machine
and most likely will ruin the workpiece or
cutter. Move the cutter clear of any contact
before starting the machine!

Serious personal injury
may occur if safety and
operational information is
not understood and fol­lowed. DO NOT risk your
safety by not reading!

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

LOOSE CUTTER. Starting the machine with a

loose cutter may eject the cutter from the
machine at a high rate of speed, causing
serious personal injury to the operator or
bystanders. Always double-check that the
cutter is tight after adjusting.

REMOVE ADJUSTMENT TOOLS. Starting the

machine with a wrench left in the spindle
adjustment screw can result in serious
personal injury. Always remove any wrenches
or other adjustment tools from the machine
after adjustments have been made and
before starting the machine.

DUST COLLECTION. Using dust collection when

operating this machine greatly reduces flying
debris and fine airborne dust, which reduces
the risk of personal injury from these
hazards. Always use a dust collection system
when operating this machine.

DISCONNECT POWER BEFORE ANY

ADJUSTMENTS. This machine requires the

operator to work near the exposed cutter
during setup. Always disconnect power
BEFORE making adjustments to the machine
or serious personal injury may occur.

Model W1805 (For Machines Mfd. Since 7/15)

This machine must be connected to the correct size and
type of power supply circuit, or fire or electrical damage
may occur. Read through this section to determine if an
adequate power supply circuit is available. If a correct
circuit is not available, a qualified electrician MUST install
one before you can connect the machine to power.

A power supply circuit includes all electrical equipment
between the breaker box or fuse panel in the building
and the machine. The power supply circuit used for
this machine must be sized to safely handle the full­load current drawn from the machine for an extended
period of time. (If this machine is connected to a circuit
protected by fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)

The full-load current rating is the amperage a machine
draws at 100% of the rated output power. On machines
with multiple motors, this is the amperage drawn by the

Model W1805 (For Machines Mfd. Since 7/15)

The unpainted surfaces of your machine are
coated with a heavy-duty rust preventative that
prevents corrosion during shipment and storage.
This rust preventative works extremely well, but
it will take a little time to clean.

Be patient and do a thorough job cleaning your
machine. The time you spend doing this now will
give you a better appreciation for the proper
care of your machine's unpainted surfaces.

There are many ways to remove this rust
preventative, but the following steps work well
in a wide variety of situations. Always follow the
manufacturer’s instructions with any cleaning
product you use and make sure you work in a
well-ventilated area to minimize exposure to
toxic fumes.

Before cleaning, gather the following:

• Disposable rags

• Cleaner/degreaser (WD•40 works well)

• Safety glasses & disposable gloves

• Plastic paint scraper (optional)

Basic steps for removing rust preventative:

1. Put on safety glasses.

2. Coat the rust preventative with a liberal

amount of cleaner/degreaser, then let it
soak for 5–10 minutes.

3. Wipe off the surfaces. If your cleaner/

degreaser is effective, the rust
preventative will wipe off easily. If you
have a plastic paint scraper, scrape off as
much as you can first, then wipe off the
rest with the rag.

4. Repeat Steps 2–3 as necessary until clean,

then coat all unpainted surfaces with a
quality metal protectant to prevent rust.

Avoid chlorine-based solvents, such as
acetone or brake parts cleaner, that may
damage painted surfaces.

Machine Placement

• Floor Load: This machine distributes a

heavy load in a small footprint. Some
residential floors may require additional

SETUP

bracing to support both machine and
operator.

• Working Clearances: Consider existing and

anticipated needs, size of material to be
processed through the machine, and space
for auxiliary stands, work tables or other
machinery when establishing a location for
your machine.

• Lighting: Lighting should be bright enough

to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain.

• Electrical: Electrical circuits must be

dedicated or large enough to handle
amperage requirements. Outlets must be
located near each machine, so power or
extension cords are clear of high-traffic
areas. Follow local electrical codes for
proper installation of new lighting, outlets,
or circuits.

USE helpers or power lift­ing equipment to lift this
161⁄2" Dovetail Machine.
Otherwise, serious per­sonal injury may occur.

Cleaning Machine

MAKE your shop “child
safe.” Ensure that your
workplace is inaccessible
to children by closing and
locking all entrances when
you are away. NEVER allow
untrained visitors in your
shop when assembling,
adjusting or operating
equipment.

Mounting to Shop Floor

Although not required, we recommend mounting your new
machine to the floor. Since this is an optional step and
floor materials may vary, floor mounting hardware is not
included.

Bolting to Concrete Floors

Lag shield anchors used with lag bolts (Figure 6) and
anchor studs (
anchoring an object to a concrete floor. We suggest you
research the many options and methods for mounting
your machine and choose the best that fits your specific
application.

Figure 7) are two popular choices for

NOTICE

Anchor studs are stronger and more permanent
alternatives to lag shield anchors; however, they will
stick out of floor, which may cause a tripping hazard
if you decide to move your machine at a later point.

To assemble the dovetail machine, attach the dust hose
to the guard, as shown in

Figure 8.

Dust Collection

Attach the dust port to your dust collection system with a
4" hose, as shown in

Recommended CFM at Dust Port: ................ 400 CFM

Do not confuse this CFM recommendation with the rating
of the dust collector. To determine the CFM at the
dust port, you must take into account many variables,
including the CFM rating of the dust collector, the length
of hose between the dust collector and the machine, the

Always wear safety glasses when oper­ating this machine. Failure to comply
may result in serious personal injury.

Stock Preparation

Stock preparation is one of the most important steps for
cutting dovetails. Stock must be properly squared up or
the dovetails will not fit in the sockets tightly or evenly.
With proper planning and preparation, you can achieve
perfect results.

Stock Size

When selecting your stock, make sure that the stock size
is within the minimum and maximum dimensions that this
machine is capable of processing (see

The first consideration when preparing your stock is to
determine the width (height of drawer). The dovetail
machine includes a 4-sided template with the following

1

sizes: 1", 1

⁄2", 2", and 21⁄2".

Figure 13).

59"

23⁄8"

Maximum

Stock Size

To achieve perfect dovetail spacing from edge-to-edge,
the stock width should be a multiple of the template size.

should divisible by 1

⁄2". Refer to Figure 14 for more

Dado Placement

The dado placement for a drawer bottom is dictated by
the size of template you use. In order for the dado to be
hidden when the dovetail joint is assembled, it must run
through a socket.

Figure 15 illustrates this concept.

CORRECT

A general rule of thumb: Cut the center of the dado half
the distance of the template size from the bottom edge
of the stock.

For example, when using a 1" template, center the dado

1

⁄2" from the bottom of all four pieces. This placement

ensures that the dado will end up in the first socket and
will not be visible when the drawer is assembled.

Figure

16 shows the ideal dado placement for each template

size.

A general rule of thumb: Cut the center of the dado half
the distance of the template size from the bottom edge
of the stock.

For example, when using a 1" template, center the dado

ensures that the dado will end up in the first socket and

Figure

16 shows the ideal dado placement for each template

Note: If your stock width is not a multiple of the
template size, this rule of thumb does not apply. Instead,
just cut the dado where you need it and center the socket
placement by eye when setting up the machine.

Dovetail Setup

Setting up the dovetail machine is a complex procedure
that involves trial-and-error and may take a fair amount of
time to complete.

Once you have the machine setup for a particular stock
size, you can repeat dovetails for that size indefinitely
without additional adjustments. However, if you change
stock size, then you must repeat this entire setup section.

Before starting any setup, you must prepare workpieces
for one drawer. These must be exactly the same size as
the drawers you will make during your production run.
Since trial-and-error is involved, this first drawer may end
up as scrap; therefore, do not prepare ALL the drawer
pieces for your production run until you have properly
setup the machine and have achieved satisfactory dovetail
joints on your test workpieces.

Model W1805 (For Machines Mfd. Since 7/15)

The setup procedures that follow refer to the drawer
pieces by their position during cutting. To avoid confusion
during the instructions, remember this:

Drawer Sides (L,R) = Vertical Workpiece
Drawer Front/Back (B, F) = Horizontal Workpiece

Follow the procedures in this section in order to properly
setup your machine for operation.

Setting Clamping Thickness

1. Check the current distance between the clamps and

3. Slide the clamp mounting bracket so the clamps

provide enough room to move workpieces in and out.

Note: Use a ruler to make sure that both sides are

adjusted equally; otherwise, contact area of the
clamp faces will not be uniform, which could result
in the workpieces slipping during operation.

4. Tighten the hex nuts against the clamp brackets to

hold them in place.

Changing Template Sizes

The template bar (Figure 19) has a different size dovetail
template on each of the four sides. The size of each
template is stamped into that side. The active template
size is always the side that is facing down. A tracer pin
connected to the headstock guides the cutter along the
template profile when cutting.

The template works in tandem with the indicator plate
and the fixed chaser.

Indicator Plate: Since the template bar is underneath the
cutting area and away from immediate operator view, the
top edge of the indicator plate mirrors the position of the
tracer pin along the template bar to help the operator
when cutting.

OPERATIONS

Each indicator plate has two patterns. When mounted, the
top edge of the indicator plate must match the current
side of the template bar that is being used. Whenever
changing the template bar size, the indicator plate must
also be changed. Use the two mounting cap screws to
remove and change the indicator plate (see

Figure 20).

Fixed Chaser: The fixed chaser supports the vertical

workpiece, yet allows the cutter to cut the bottom of the
vertical workpiece without hitting the metal fixed chaser.
To prevent the cutter from contacting the fixed chaser,
use the fixed chaser that corresponds to the template size
shown in

Figure 21.

4.

then replace the extension spring.

Setting Fences

The dovetail machine features HDPE (high density
polyethylene) plastic fences for both the horizontal and
vertical workpieces (see
into during operation to reduce tear-out.

The fences should be set so that the dovetails are evenly
distributed across the width of the workpiece. Setting the
fences requires attention to the "in" and "out" positions
of the tracer pin (see
in the "in" position, the cutter is cutting the workpiece.
When the tracer is in the "out" position, the cutter is
outside of the workpiece.

To set the fences, do these steps:

The tails should fit into the sockets tightly and
both workpieces should be flush with each other.
Typically, fine-tuning the dovetail joint fit requires
balancing socket depth and the cutter adjustment,
as follows:

-28-

Continued on next page

Model W1805 (For Machines Mfd. Since 7/15)

— If the workpieces do not fit together or if the fit is

too tight, then adjust the cutter to take a larger
cut and repeat "Cut 1."

— If the workpieces fit together too loosely, adjust

the cutter to take a smaller cut and do "Cut 2."

— If the tails fit easily side-to-side into the sockets,

but do not go down far enough, adjust the socket
depth deeper.

— If the tails fit easily side-to-side into the sockets,

but go too far down, adjust the socket depth
shallower.

Adjusting Cutter

The cutter rotates eccentrically in the spindle, which
allows it to be adjusted for control of the dovetail joint
"fit" when assembled.

Two set screws hold the cutter in position and a spindle
scale is provided for monitoring the cutter position during
adjustments (

To adjust the cutter, do these steps:

Model W1805 (For Machines Mfd. Since 7/15)

MAKE SURE that your machine is
unplugged during all maintenance pro­cedures! If this warning is ignored, seri­ous personal injury may occur.

• Check/drain the air supply unit water filter. (Drain
by sliding the white shaft to the other side.)

Weekly Maintenance (40 Hours)

• Grease spindle with multi-purpose lithium grease.

Monthly Maintenance (320 Hours)

• Belt tension, damage, or wear.

Cleaning

Vacuum excess wood chips and sawdust, and wipe off the
remaining dust with a dry cloth. If any resin has built up,
use a resin dissolving cleaner to remove it.

Protect the unpainted cast iron surfaces on the table

MAINTENANCE

by wiping the table clean after every use—this ensures
that moisture from wood dust does not remain on bare
metal surfaces. Tables can be kept rust-free with regular
applications of a quality metal protectant/lubricant.

Lubrication

The bearings in the machine are sealed and lubricated
for life. The spindle has one grease fitting that must be
greased approximately every 40 hours or one week of
regular use (refer to
connect the fitting to a grease gun and give the spindle
one pump of multi-purpose lithium grease.

General

Cutter Replacement

When the cutter gets dull, or if it gets damaged, it
must be replaced. Dull cutters can be resharpened by
a professional, but cutters are inexpensive and easily
replaced.

Tools Needed Qty

Hex Wrench 4mm ...............................................1

To replace the cutter, do these steps:

DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

1.

Remove the guard.

2.

3. Loosen the two set screws that hold the cutter in

the spindle. (The set screws must be backed out
half-way before the cutter can be removed.)

Slide the cutter out and insert the new one.

4.

5. Tighten the two set screws to secure the cutter in

place.

MAKE SURE that your machine is
unplugged during all service proce­dures! If this warning is ignored, seri­ous personal injury may occur.

6. Replace the guard.

Belt Tension

A flat belt transfers power from the motor to the cutter
spindle. This belt stretches with use and periodically
needs to be tensioned. If the cutter lacks power, stops
spinning, or cuts slower than normal, then the belt may
need to be tightened.

Continued on next page

Tools Needed Qty

Hex Wrench 6mm ...............................................1

To tighten the belt, do these steps:

1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

Loosen the two motor mount cap screws shown in

2.
Figure 48.

Turn the belt tension bolt, shown in Figure 49,

3.

clockwise to tension the belt.

Note: Each time you adjust the belt tension, only

turn the bolt one full turn. This will prevent over­tightening the belt, which can lead to premature
bearing failure in the motor and spindle.

If the belt is left loose, it can stop during operation while
the pulley continues to spin. This scenario will burn the
belt, which will create a horrible vibration and smell of
burned rubber. If this ever happens, then the belt must
be replaced before continuing operations.

Tools Needed Qty

Hex Wrench 6mm ...............................................1

To replace the belt, do these steps:

1. DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

Lower the cutter as far as it will go.
