SECTION 4: ASSEMBLY
Beginning Assembly
Most of your Model G8621 Shaper has been
assembled at the factory, but some parts must be
assembled or installed after delivery. We have
organized the assembly process into steps.
Please follow along in the order presented here.
Handwheel
The handwheel, pre-installed at the factory, is
made of cast iron. It is used to raise and lower the
spindle to accommodate the height required by
your cutter.
Thread the crank handle onto the handwheel.
