Complete this process once you have familiarized yourself
with all instructions in this manual .
To test run the shaper, do these steps:
1. Read the entire instruction manual first, so you
are familiar with all controls and functions of the
shaper!
2. Connect your machine to the power source.
3. Turn the shaper ON. The shaper should run smoothly
with little or no vibration.
— Immediately turn the jointer OFF if you suspect
any problems, and fix those problems before start-

noise or vibration is not readily apparent, contact
our technical support for help at (360) 734-3482 or
