Section 5: Operation; Rotation - Grizzly G5913Z Owner's Manual

SECTION 5: OPERATION

Keep
rolled up and out of the
way of machinery and
keep hair pulled back.
Always disconnect power
to the machine before
performing maintenance.
Failure to do this may
result in serious person-
al injury.
Wear safety glasses dur-
ing all operations on the
shaper. Failure to com-
ply may result in serious
personal injury.
Always
mask when operating
the shaper. Using this
machine produces saw-
dust which may cause
allergic
respiratory problems.
NOTICE
The following section was designed to give
instructions on the basic operations of this
shaper. However, it is in no way compre-
hensive of every shaper application. There
are many different jigs that can be built
to increase safety, accuracy, and types of
cuts. WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND that
you read books, trade magazines, or get
formal training to maximize the potential of
your shaper.

Rotation

Your shaper is equipped with a FORWARD/
REVERSE switch as shown in Figure 28. In many
instances, you will find it necessary to flip the cut-
ter over and reverse cutter rotation. Whenever
possible, mount the cutter so the board is milled
on the bottom side. This method does a better job
and is safer for the operator.
Always check the direction of cutter rota-
tion before beginning any shaping opera-
tion.

NOTICE
This machine was designed to be started
and stopped with the ON/OFF buttons—not
the reversing switch.
