-12- G8621 Heavy-Duty Sliding Table Shaper
Spindle
The Model G8621 comes with three interchange-
able spindles like those in Figure 5. The spindles
must be inserted correctly and remain stable in
order to produce quality work. When installing
and changing spindles, make sure the spindle
seats snugly and that there is enough drawbar
threaded into the bottom of the spindle to safely
secure it in place. To install a spindle:
1. You should not have your machine connect-
ed to a power source at this time. If you do,
UNPLUG it before you begin.
4. Thread the drawbar nut, tapered side up,
onto the bottom of the drawbar, as illustrated
in Figure 7.
5. Place the spindle wrench on top of the spin-
dle, so it fits over the head of the spindle.
Place a 15mm wrench on the drawbar nut.
6. Hold the spindle in place and tighten the
drawbar nut. DO NOT use excessive force.

2. Thread the drawbar approximately 10-15
turns into the bottom of the spindle. The
drawbar has two threaded ends. One of
them will remain exposed.
3. Drop the spindle/drawbar into the spindle
cartridge at the top of the table. Line up the
keyway on the spindle with the locating pin at
the top of the spindle cartridge. You will feel
the spindle seat itself. See Figure 6.
