CUTTER SELECTION. Use only those cutters designed to be used on the machine, and mount
only safety type cutters on the spindle.
STOCK CONDITION. The danger of kicked back stock can occur when the stock has knots,
holes, or foreign objects such as nails. Warped or in – wind stock should first be jointed on one
surface before attempting to use it on the shaper.
DO NOT REACH over shaper. There is danger of
kickback which can pull the hand back into the cutter.
Use push sticks to assist in pushing the work through.
JOB COMPLETION. The operator should never leave
the workstation for any reason without turning off the
shaper and waiting for the spindle to come to a
complete stop. When the operation is complete, the
operator should clean up the shaper and work area.
Never clean the shaper with the power "ON" and
never use the hands to clear sawdust and debris –
use a brush.
