ENCLOSED EDGE SHAPING
NEVER PERFORM ENCLOSED EDGE SHAPING IF THE WORKPIECE OPENING IS
SMALLER, IN ANY DIRECTION, THAN TWICE THE DIAMETER OF THE CUTTER(S).
WHENEVER POSSIBLE, USE A GUIDE PIN WHEN PERFORMING PATTERN SHAPING
AND COLLAR SHAPING OPERATIONS.
NEVER PERFORM THIS TYPE OPERATION WITHOUT A RING GUARD OR SIMILAR
SAFETY DEVICE OVER THE CUTTERHEAD.
An enclosed workpiece edge is shaped in the same
manner as an outside contoured edge except that a guide
post is not required as shown in Figure 26.
Note: If the whole edge is to be shaped, the
operator MUST use a pattern.
1. Position 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).
2. With a firm grip, ease the edge into the cutter(s) until
stopped by the collar shown in Figure 27.
3. Continue to push straight in while feeding and turning
the workpiece at the same time until the cut is
finished.
4. Turn off the motor and do NOT remove workpiece
until the cutters have completely stopped.
WARNING:
Enclosed edge shaping is extremely dangerous. The
operator must be aware at all times of the direction of feed.
WARNING:
Unless the workpiece is attached to a larger wooden base,
NEVER perform enclosed edge
shaping if there is less than 12” of workpiece material
all around the opening.
