on the side of the fence mount as shown in
figure 8a.
2. Adjust the position
of the fence by turn-
ing the adjustment
knob located on the
back of the fence
mount as shown in
figure 8b.
3. Once the fence is in the desired position,
tighten down the fence mount lock handle.
Fence Alignment
Before shaping, it is important to check that
the two fence faces are parallel.
To align the fences so they are parallel with
each other, do these steps:
1. Get a quality straightedge that is long
enough to span the entire length of the fence
assembly.
2. Make sure that the screws holding the fence
faces to the fence mounts are tight and secure.
3. Adjust the fence faces so they are in as close
to the same parallel position as possible.
4. Hold the straight-
edge across both of
the fence faces as
shown in figure 9.
5. If the fence faces are not parallel, place
shims between the back of the fence piece and
the face of the fence mount. With some trial
and error shim adjusting, parallel fence faces
can be achieved.
Table Inserts
The table inserts are necessary for the safe op-
eration of the shaper.
Two inserts are provided allowing for three
different opening sizes to be achieved. Use the
smallest-size opening for a cutter to reduce
wood chips falling into the machine, which
could cause flying debris.
Using the smallest-size opening also covers any
unused portion of the bit below the surface of
the table, thus reducing the chance of opera-
tor injury.
To adjust the table inserts, do these steps:
1. UNPLUG THE SHAPER!

2. Using a screwdriver,
remove the three
head screws holding
the cast iron insert in
the table.
3. Using a straight-
edge ruler as a guide,
turn the barrel-head
screws either way
until the insert is flush
with the top of the
table (see fig. 10 & 11).
4. Once the entire insert is flush with the table
top, reinsert the three Phillips® head screws
and tighten.
Pulley Alignment
Pulley alignment is important to the perfor-
mance of your shaper. If the pulleys are just
slightly out of alignment, the shaper may suf-
fer from power loss as well as decreased V-belt
life. The pulleys need to be both parallel with
one another for optimum shaper performance.
To align the pulleys, do these steps:
1. UNPLUG THE SHAPER!
2. Remove the motor cover from the side of the
shaper.
3. Hold a straightedge
up to the pulleys to
determine if they are
both aligned and par-
allel (figure 12).
4. If the motor pulley is not parallel with the
spindle pulley, loosen the four motor mount
bolts as shown in figure13.
5. Wiggle the motor until the pulley is parallel
with the spindle pulley.
6. If the spindle pulley is not aligned with the
motor pulley, loosen the shaft securing set-
screw located on the motor pulley.
7. Raise or lower the motor pulley along the
motor shaft to align it with the spindle pulley,
then tighten the setscrew loosened in step 6.
NOTE: The spindle pulley can also be adjusted
by loosening the spindle bolt (shown in figure
14), moving the spindle up or down as neces-
sary, then retightening the spindle bolt.
