OPERATION
CARELESS ACTS . Give the work you are doing your undivided attention. Looking around,
talking to someone, and horseplay are careless acts that can result in serious injury.
This section gives instructions on the basic operations of this shaper. It is in no way
comprehensive of every shaper or application. It is strongly recommended that you read books,
trade magazines, or get formal training to maximize the potential of your shaper and to minimize
the risks of injury, or damage to equipment or work stock.
Initial Operation
1. Connect the machine to the power source.
2. Make sure you have read the safety instructions at the beginning of the manual and that the
machine is setup properly.

4. Press the START button to turn the machine ON.
5. Check to make sure the spindle is rotating in a counterclockwise direction when the switch is
in the FORWARD position.
Listen to and watch for abnormal noises or actions. The machine should run smoothly with
little or no vibration or rubbing noises. Immediately turn the shaper OFF if you suspect any
problems and fix any problems before starting the shaper again.
