RECEIVING THE SHAPER
Carefully unpack the shaper and any loose items from
the wood crate and inspect for damage. Any dam-
age should be reported to your distributor and ship-
ping agent immediately. Before proceeding further,
read your manual thoroughly to familiarize yourself
with proper assembly, maintenance and safety pro-
cedures.

1 shaper base
1 fence body
1 fence cover
3 table inserts

Remove the screws that hold the shaper to the ship-

lacquer thinner for this purpose. DO NOT use sol-
vents on plastic parts.
INSTALLATION
Install shaper on a level surface. Check table sur-
face with a machinist level and, if necessary, use metal
shims under low corners. Secure to the floor with
good quality anchor bolts through the holes on the
inside bottom of the base.
