Machine Placement

Floor Load: This machine distributes a
heavy load in a small footprint. Some floors
may require additional bracing to support
both machine and operator.
Working Clearances: Consider existing and
anticipated needs, size of material to be
processed through the machine, and space
for auxiliary stands, work tables or other
machinery when establishing a location for
your shaper.
Lighting: Lighting should be bright enough
to eliminate shadow and prevent eye strain.
Electrical: Electrical circuits must be
dedicated or large enough to handle
amperage requirements. Plan the location
of your shaper so that the permanent
electrical conduit will not be a tripping
hazard. Follow local electrical codes for
proper installation of new lighting, outlets,
or circuits.
USE helpers and power
lifting equipment to lift
this shaper. Otherwise,
serious personal injury
may occur.
MAKE your shop "child
safe." Ensure that your
workplace is inaccessible
to others by closing and
locking all entrances when
you are away. NEVER allow
untrained visitors in your
shop
adjusting
equipment.

Cleaning Machine

The table and other unpainted parts of your
machine type are coated with a waxy grease
that protects them from corrosion during ship-
ment. Clean this grease off with a solvent clean-
er or citrus-based degreaser. DO NOT use chlo-
rine-based solvents such as brake parts cleaner
or acetone—if you happen to splash some onto a
painted surface, you will ruin the finish.
-13-
NEVER use gasoline or
other
petroleum-based
solvents to clean with.
Most
have
low
flash
points, which make them
extremely
flammable.
A risk of explosion and
burning exists if these
products are used. Serious
personal injury may occur
if this warning is ignored!
ALWAYS work in well-
ventilated areas far from
possible ignition sources
when using solvents to
clean machinery. Many
solvents are toxic when
inhaled or ingested. Use
care
when
disposing
of
waste
rags
and
towels to be sure they
DO NOT create fire or
environmental hazards.
