G0510 3⁄4 HP Shaper
-14-
Safety Guard
Assembly
The guard protects the operator from inad-
vertent contact with the cutter which could
cause serious personal injury. DO NOT
operate the shaper with the guard removed.
Always replace the guard before operation if
it has been removed for machine service or
maintenance.
The Model G0510 features a clear acrylic safety
guard that is designed to deflect wood chips away
from the operator.
To attach the guard:
1.
Slip the support rod into the hole in the brack-
et that is bolted to the back of the shaper
table. See
Figure 8.

2.
Adjust the height of the safety guard.
3.
Lock the bracket knob to keep the safety
guard in place.
Once assembly is complete, you are ready to test
run the machine.
Test Run
DO NOT attempt to investigate or adjust the
machine while it is running. Wait until the
machine is turned off, unplugged and all
working parts have come to a complete stop
before you do anything!
Turn on the power supply at the main panel.
Press the START button. Make sure that your fin-
ger is poised on the STOP button, just in case
there is a problem. The shaper should run
smoothly, with little or no vibration or rubbing nois-
es. Strange or unnatural noises should be investi-
gated and corrected before operating the
machine further.
If the shaper seems to be running correctly, check
the directional switch. The spindle should be
rotating in a counterclockwise direction when the
switch is in the FORWARD position. Run the
Model G0510 for a short time to ensure that the
moving parts are working properly with no exces-
sive vibration. If any problem develops, correct it
before attempting to use the machine.
If you cannot locate the source of unusual noises,
feel free to contact our service department for
help.
