Additional Safety for Shapers
GUARDING FROM CUTTER EXPOSURE. When
setting up cuts, take every possible step to
reduce operator exposure to the cutter to
prevent laceration or amputation injuries.
These steps include but are not limited to:
Keeping the unused portion of the cutter
below the table, using the smallest table
insert allowed by cutter, adjusting fences as
close as practical to the cutter on both sides,
using a properly installed box guard, and
securing the guard as close to the workpiece
as possible. Keep the provided guard or other
protective devices between your hands and
the cutter at all times!
KEEPING HANDS SAFE. Never pass your hands
near, directly over, or in front of the cutter. As
one hand approaches the 6-inch radius point,
move it in an arc motion away from the cutter
to the outfeed side and reposition that hand
more than 6 inches beyond the cutter. Do not
use awkward hand positions.
SMALL WORKPIECES. There is a risk when
shaping a small workpiece that it will slip
between the fence boards and draw the
operator’s hand into the spinning cutter.
Keep fingers away from revolving cutter—use
fixtures when necessary. Where practical,
shape longer stock and cut to size.
TESTING FOR CLEARANCE. If the spinning cutter
should contact the fence, guard, or insert,
the resulting flying debris presents injury
hazards. Unplug the shaper, and always rotate
the spindle by hand to test any new setup for
proper cutter clearance before starting the
shaper.
SAFE CUTTER INSTALLATION: A properly
tightened spindle nut reduces the risk of
the cutter or rub collars flying off during
operation. Always make sure the quill key and
spindle keyway are aligned. Always use both
spindle nuts and make sure they are tight.
CUTTER POSITIONING. Position cutters so they
cut from the underside of the workpiece
whenever possible to reduce operator
exposure to the moving cutter.
FEEDING DIRECTION. Always make sure the
cutter is rotating in the correct direction
before starting shaper, and always feed
the workpiece against the rotation of the
cutter. Moving the workpiece into the cutter
in the same direction as it is rotating will
aggressively pull the workpiece from your
hands and could draw them into the cutter.
PREPARING A WORKPIECE. Always square up
a workpiece before you run it through the
shaper. A warped workpiece is difficult to
process and increases the risk of an accident.
Always inspect the workpiece before shaping.
The danger of kickback is increased when the
stock has knots, holes, or foreign objects in it.
AVOIDING AN OVERLOAD. Removing too much
material in one pass increases the risk of the
workpiece kicking back toward the operator.
Never attempt to remove too much material
in one pass. Several light passes are safer and
give a cleaner finish.
SAFELY FEEDING A WORKPIECE. We recommend
using some type of fixture, jig, or hold-down
device to safely support the workpiece when
feeding. ALWAYS use a push stick when shaping
small or narrow workpieces. Use an outfeed
support table if shaping long workpieces to
make sure that they remain supported during
the entire cutting procedure.
SAFETY GUARDS. To reduce the risk of
unintentional contact with the rotating cutter,
always make sure the cutter safety guard
and a properly dimensioned box guard are
correctly installed before beginning operation.
CONTOUR SHAPING. When shaping contoured
work and using a rub collar, NEVER start
shaping at a corner. See the rub collar section
in the manual. Use the overhead safety guard
when the adjustable fence is not in place.

ELECTRICAL
Circuit Requirements
This machine must be connected to the correct size and
type of power supply circuit, or fire or electrical damage
may occur. Read through this section to determine if an
adequate power supply circuit is available. If a correct
circuit is not available, a qualified electrician MUST install
one before you can connect the machine to power.
A power supply circuit includes all electrical equipment
between the breaker box or fuse panel in the building
and the machine. The power supply circuit used for
this machine must be sized to safely handle the full-
load current drawn from the machine for an extended
period of time. (If this machine is connected to a circuit
protected by fuses, use a time delay fuse marked D.)
Circuit Requirements
This machine is prewired to operate on a 220V power
supply circuit that has a verified ground and meets the
following requirements:
Circuit Type .................... 220V, 60 Hz, Single-Phase
Circuit Size ............................................ 15 Amps
Plug/Receptacle ................................... NEMA 6-15
Full-Load Current Rating
The full-load current rating is the amperage a machine
draws at 100% of the rated output power. On machines
with multiple motors, this is the amperage drawn by the
largest motor or sum of all motors and electrical devices
that might operate at one time during normal operations.
Full-Load Current Rating at 220V ............... 9.5 Amps

Grounding Requirements
This machine MUST be grounded. In the event of certain
types of malfunctions or breakdowns, grounding provides
a path of least resistance for electric current to travelin
order to reduce the risk of electric shock.
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding wire will
increase the risk of electric shock. The wire with green
insulation (with/without yellow stripes) is the equipment-
grounding wire. If repair or replacement of the power
cord or plug is necessary, do not connect the equipment-
grounding wire to a live (current carrying) terminal.
Check with a qualified electrician or service personnel
if you do not understand these grounding requirements,
or if you are in doubt about whether the tool is
properly grounded. If you ever notice that a cord or
plug is damaged or worn, disconnect it from power, and
immediately replace it with a new one.

6-15 RECEPTACLE
220V
Figure 1. NEMA 6-15 plug & receptacle.
This machine is equipped with a power cord that has an
equipment-grounding wire and NEM A 6-15 grounding plug.
The plug must only be inserted into a matching receptacle
(see =`^li\) that is properly installed and grounded in
accordance with local codes and ordinances.
For 220V Connection
The machine must be properly set up
before it is safe to operate. DO NOT
connect this machine to the power
source until instructed to do so later in
this manual.
Extension Cords
We do not recommend using an extension cord with this
machine. Extension cords cause voltage drop, which may
damage electrical components and shorten motor life.
Voltage drop increases with longer extension cords and
the gauge smaller gauge sizes (higher gauge numbers
indicate smaller sizes).
Any extension cord used with this machine must contain a
ground wire, match the required plug and receptacle, and
meet the following requirements:
Minimum Gauge Size at 220V ...................... 14 AWG
Maximum Length (Shorter is Better) ................50 ft.
No adapter should be used with the
required plug. If the plug does not fit
the available receptacle or the machine
must be reconnected to a different
type of circuit, the reconnection must
be made by an electrician or qualified
service personnel and it must comply
with all local codes and ordinances.
