Belt Adjustment
WARNING
All adjustments to the machine must be
made with the power off and unplugged
from the power source!
Failure to comply may result in serious
injury!
Check the drive belt to insure that the pulleys
are accurately aligned. If alignment is required,
loosen the setscrew (A, Fig. 5) in the motor
pulley and reposition the pulley on the motor
shaft.
Speed Change
The JWS-25CS shaper may be operated at
8,000 RPM (lower pulleys) or 10,000 RPM
(upper pulleys). To change the spindle speed,
loosen the lock handle (B, Fig. 5) and pivot the
motor assembly toward the spindle. Reposition
the belt to the desired speed and tension the
belt.
Squaring the Fence
Periodically the wood fence will have to be
squared with the mounting surface and adjusted
parallel to each other. To correct, do the
following:
1. Check the two ratcheting handles (A, Fig. 6)
holding the fence assembly to the table and
make sure they are tight.
2. Check the four countersink flat head screws
(B, Fig. 6) that secure the wooden fences
and make sure they are tight.
3. Take a 2x4 with a jointed edge and clamp it
to the shaper table making sure the jointed
edge is absolutely on line with the miter
groove and close to the fence as shown in
figure 6.
4. Loosen the two lock handles (C, Fig. 6) and
turn the fence adjustment knobs (D, Fig. 6)
to move both fences against the jointed
edge of the 2x4. After this adjustment the
fences should make flush contact with the
jointed edge and square with the table.
Note: Periodically the wooden fences may
require resurfacing in order to remain
parallel and square with the table.
