When Shaping:
1.
6-INCH RULE:
To avoid accidental cutter
contact, never allow your hands to come
closer than 6 inches to the cutters. Use push
block, jigs, and hold-downs to safely feed the
workpiece while cutting.
2. NO CLIMB CUT: To prevent kickback, feed
stock opposite to the direction of the cutter
rotation. Never back stock out of the cutter
once the cut has been started. Instead, pull
the stock straight back away from cutter and
begin the cut again.
3.
SHAPING SHORT EDGE: When shaping
workpiece with an edge shorter than 6”, use
miter gauge and hold down fixtures for
feeding.
WARNING
When using miter gauge, do not feed
workpiece against the fence. If the fence
is not perfectly parallel to the miter slot,
workpiece can bind and kickback may
occur.
4. FREEHAND SHAPING is for advanced users
only. Always use a starting pin or pivot board
when starting a cut. Never start shaping at a
corner.
5. MAKE LIGHT PASSES: Never force the cutter
to remove too much material in one pass.
Doing so increase the risk of kickback and
impact finish quality. Make several light
passes when applicable.
6. KEEP HANDS SAFE: Do not clear dust and
debris with hands; use a brush or
compressed air instead.
After Operation
1. STOP THE MACHINE when operator leaves the machine for any reason.
2. WAIT until the cutter comes to a complete stop.
3. CLEAN UP before departure.
