Changing Cutter
Rotation
Figure 20. FWD/REV switch.
Always check the direction of the cutter rota-
tion before any shaping operation.
The G0510ZW is equipped with a FWD/REV (for-
ward and reverse) switch, as shown in
Figure 20.
In most cases, the shaper should be run in the
FWD direction. If you are using router bits, always
run the shaper in the FWD direction. Router bits
are not designed to run backwards.
In some instances, it will be necessary to flip the
cutter over and reverse the cutter rotation.
Whenever possible, mount the cutter so the stock
is milled on the bottom side (the side away from
the operator). This does a better job and it is safer
for the operator. Refer to
Rub Collars, Page 26.
Read through the entire manual carefully
before attempting to make any cuts with
your shaper. Otherwise, serious personal
injury could occur.
Installing Router Bits

the shaper to a router table. Refer to the
