4.
Set the right and left cast iron fences to bare-
ly clear the cutter. This allows the maximum
support possible. Remember to tighten down
the fence before starting the shaper.
5.
When removing the entire face of the work-
piece, a test sample of the desired cut
should be advanced about 8'' then stopped.
6.
Once the shaper is turned off and the cutter
has come to a complete stop, adjust the out-
feed fence to support the new profiled edge
as shown in Figure 21.
Figure 21. Fence adjusted to support workpiece.
If the face of the workpiece will only be par-
tially removed, observe the following steps:
1.
Adjust the infeed fence to approximately the
desired depth of cut. Lock the infeed fence.
2.
Use a straightedge to adjust the outfeed
fence to the same plane as the infeed fence.
Lock the outfeed fence.
3.
Set the right and left cast iron fence ends so
they barely clear the cutter. This allows the
maximum support possible for the work-
piece. Remember to tighten down the fence
before starting the shaper.

Run a test piece through the shaper as
shown in Figure 22.

Always cut the end grain first (as shown in
Figure 23) when putting an edge around the
perimeter of your workpiece.
