Shop Preparation
•
Machine Mobility: Use the Model D2057
SHOP FOX
®
Heavy-Duty Mobile Base so
you can make the most out of your shop
space by moving the Model W1702 3 HP
Shaper out of the way when not in use.
Contact your
SHOP FOX
®
Dealer for price
and availability.
•
Working Clearances: Consider your current
and future shop needs with respect to the
machinery and the lumber to be shaped.
Allow enough space for safe lumber support
as the lumber is fed into the shaper and as
it exits the machine.
•
Outlets: Make sure the electrical circuits
have the capacity to handle the amperage
requirements for your Model W1702 3 HP
Shaper. Refer to
Pages 3 and 8 for more
information. Electrical outlets should be
located near the shaper, so power or
extension cords are clear of high-traffic
areas.
Make sure that you use an appropriate dust
collection system connected to your shaper. You
may have to create or modify other shop ducting
to achieve the correct dust collection system
clearances and airflow. Connect a 3" flexible dust
collection hose to the rear of the fence
adjustment tube. Use a 3" hose clamp to secure
the hose to the tube. See
Figure 11.
For additional information on the correct dust
collection system, additions, or modifications;
contact your Woodstock International dealer for a
copy of the
Dust Collection Basics handbook and
available accessories.
ONLY allow trained people
in your shop! Make sure
shop entrances are locked
and machines are
correctly turned off with
lock-out devices when not
in use. Otherwise, injury
or death can occur.
USE
the correct dust
collection system and
respirator in your shop.
Some wood dust may
cause respiratory
illnesses. Ignoring this
warning may cause severe
personal injury or death.
