Adjusting Spindle
Height
The spindle height is adjustable to allow for preci-
sion positioning of cutter/bit exposure from the
table surface.
After making adjustments, it is extremely impor-
tant to always lock the spindle in place before
operating the shaper. Otherwise, the spindle posi-
tion can easily shift, causing inconsistent cutting
results from workpiece to workpiece.
To adjust cutter height:
1.
Loosen spindle elevation lock shown in
Figure 21.

2.
Move spindle up or down with elevation
adjustment lever, shown in Figure 22, until
desired spindle height is obtained.

Fence Adjustments

Each side of the fence is independently adjust-
able to compensate for different cutting thickness-
es and special shaping applications. One turn of
the fence offset knob (see Figure 23) moves the
split fence approximately
When removing material from the whole face
of your workpiece, the outfeed fence should be
adjusted to the proper offset to provide support for
the workpiece as it passes over the cutter.
To adjust fence for straight shaping:
1.
Loosen fence lock lever (see Figure 23).
