Sometimes the starting pin will not be in the most
advantageous position. To remedy this situation, firmly
clamp a board in the desired position to act as a starting
block (see
Figure
50
)
. Some type of pivot point must
be
used.
The purpose of the starting block is to support the
workpiece during the beginning of the cut. The workpiece
is typically placed in the starting position, using the
starting fixture for support, then swung into the cutter
while holding the workpiece firmly against the starting
fixture. After the cut has been started, the work is swung
away from the starting fixture and is supported only by
the rub collar.
Always feed AGAINST the rotation of
the cutter and do not start cuts at corners in order to
avoid kickback or grain tear-out.
When using a solid rub collar, do not use excessive
pressure when running your workpiece through the
shaper. Otherwise, a groove may burn into your pattern
and be transferred to your workpiece. Instead, take
several passes, using lighter pressure against the rub
collar. If you find this to be a consistent problem, you
may consider using ball bearing rub collars instead of solid
collars. See
Accessories on Page 41.

Incorrectly feeding stock—feed-

potentially uncontrollable feed situ-
ation that may pull stock from your
hands. Follow instructions at all times
or serious personal injury can occur.
