OPERATIONS
Start Up
Once assembly is complete and adjustments have been made, the shaper is ready for start up. Always pay attention to any unusual noises and vibrations on every start up, as well as make sure the shaper operates as intended.
1.MAKE SURE that the fence, any accessories, Jigs, spindle, cutter, or router bit adapter being used is tight and no loose items are on the table.
2.Put your safety glasses on, and start the shaper by turning the switch to the forward position. Be sure to have your finger poised to stop the machine if there is a problem.
3.Once the machine is running, listen for any unusual noises coming from the shaper. The shaper should run smoothly with little or no vibrations.
•If there is an unusual noise or vibration, shut the machine off immediately. DO NOT run the shaper any further until the problems are corrected. Refer to the
Troubleshooting section on Page 33 for possible causes and solutions.
•If the problem continues and cannot be easily identified, contact our customer service department.
