Using Table Inserts
Your shaper includes three table inserts with
inside openings of 2
1
⁄

", 4
1
⁄
8
", and 5
3
⁄
4
" (see Figure
40). The table counterbore with all three inserts
removed is 8
1
⁄
4
" in diameter.
Use the smallest opening that the cutter will
allow without interfering with its rotation.
This offers more support for the workpiece and
reduces the amount of chips that can fall into
the machine. Also, make sure the spindle is
large enough to allow any unused portion of the
cutter to remain below the table surface, which
increases operator protection.
If necessary, refer to Adjusting Table Inserts
on Page 51 for detailed instructions on leveling
the inserts with the table.
