NOTICE

The lock knob keeps the spindle in a fixed position during shaper operation. Do not over-tighten the lock knob. A snug fit is all that is needed to keep the spindle from moving during operation.

Disconnect power to the machine when perform- ing any adjustments or maintenance. Failure to do this may result in seri- ous personal injury.

G8622 Tilting Spindle Sliding Table Shaper

Read the entire manual before making any cuts

with your shaper. Serious personal injury may result if safety or operational information is not understood or fol- lowed.

The fence assembly is a two-piece, independent- ly adjustable system. When removing material from the whole face of your workpiece, the out- feed fence can be adjusted to provide support for the workpiece as it passes over the cutter. The outfeed fence can also be set in-line for partial face removal.

If removing material from the whole face, observe the following steps:

1.Loosen the locking handles shown in Figure 36 that hold the fences in place.

Figure 36. Location of fence locking handles.

2.Adjust the infeed fence by turning the adjust- ment knobs until the workpiece contacts the cutter in the desired location.

3.Lock the infeed fence in position with the locking handle. Use a test piece to determine the best setting.
