Spindle

The Model G1026 comes with
changeable spindles. Each spindle is sized to
work efficiently with different sized cutters and
spacers. The spindles must be inserted correctly
and remain securely locked in the machine 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.
Incorrect assembly can allow the spindle
and cutter to fly off the machine, which
could cause injury or death. Make certain
the spindle is properly assembled before
operating the Shaper. If you are uncertain of
any aspect of this assembly, please review
these instructions again or contact our
Customer Service.
To install a spindle:
1.
KEEP SHAPER DISCONNECTED FROM
POWER!
2.
Remove the hex nuts from the spindle and
the drawbar nut from the drawbar.
3. Thread the drawbar approximately 10-15
turns into the bottom of the spindle. The
drawbar has two threaded ends. One of them
remains exposed. See Figure 9.
