ATTACHING ELECTRICAL BOX TO CABINET
The tool is shipped with the starter box wired to the switch and motor and must be
mounted to the shaper cabinet.
Install three 1/4-20 x 1/2" hex head screws with lockwashers through the rear of the
tool (A) Fig. 15, and into the tapped holes (B) on the back of the electrical box.

OPERATING CONTROLS AND ADJUSTMENTS
STARTING AND STOPPING THE SHAPER
To apply power to the machine, push “ON” button (A) Fig.16. To stop the machine, push “OFF” button (B).
LOCKING SWITCH IN THE “OFF” POSITION
IMPORTANT: When the machine is not in use, the switch should be locked in the “OFF” position using a padlock (A) Fig. 17,
(Delta Cat. No. 50-325), with a 3/16" diameter shackle to prevent unauthorized use.

RAISING AND LOWERING SPINDLE
The spindle can be raised or lowered by loosening the lock knob (A) Fig. 18 and turning the handwheel (B). To raise the spindle
height, turn the handwheel (B) clockwise. To lower the spindle height, turn the handle (B) counterclockwise.
The scale (C) Fig. 18 indicates the spindle travel range from 0" to 3" and is marked in 1/16" increments. Minor cutter height
adjustments can be measured using the pointer (D) along the scale (C).
Tighten the lock knob (A) after adjusting the spindle height.

CHANGING SPEEDS AND ADJUSTING BELT TENSION
The machine is supplied with a 2-step motor pulley and a 2-step spindle pulley that provide spindle speeds of 7,000 and
10,000 RPM. With the belt on the largest step of the motor pulley and the smallest step of the spindle pulley, the spindle speed
will be 10,000 RPM. With the belt on the smallest step of the motor pulley and the largest step of the spindle pulley, the spindle
speed will be 7,000 RPM.A chart (Y) Fig. 19 that illustrates the correct belt placement for 7,000 or 10,000 RPM is located on
the inside panel of the motor access door.
To change speeds and adjust belt tension:
1.
Open motor access door (Z) Fig. 19.
2. Loosen the thumb screw (A) Fig. 20. Release tension on the belt by moving the lever (B) to the left. Position the belt (C)
on the desired steps of the spindle pulley (D) and the motor pulley (E), and apply belt tension by moving the lever (B) to
the right. When the desired belt tension is attained, tighten the thumb screw (A).
3. Proper belt tension is approximately a 3/32" deflection when using light finger pressure on the belt between pulleys.
IMPORTANT: Pulleys (D) and (E) Fig. 20 should always be aligned with each other to provide maximum belt performance and
reduce belt wear. To check pulley alignment, refer to section “REPLACING SPINDLE CARTRIDGE”.
