Because the shaper fence is independently adjustable,
you can set up the shaper to cut part of or all of the
workpiece edge.
Note: To quickly set the depth of cut, loosen both
carriage lock knobs and move the fence assembly in-or-
out in relation to the cutter. This positions the fence to
allow for the micro-adjustments described below.
