2. When the shaping operation removes the
entire edge of the stock, e.g. in jointing or
making a full bead, the shaped edge will not
be supported by the outfeed fence when
both fences are in line, as shown in Figure
27. In this case, the stock should be
advanced to the position shown in Figure 27
and stopped. The outfeed fence should
then be moved forward to contact the work,
as shown in Figure 28. The outfeed fence
will then be in line with the cutting circle, and
the operation can continue.
Keep guards in place and in
working order. Always use fence assembly
when the work permits.
Position of Collars
When shaping with collars, the collar must have
sufficient bearing surface, as shown in Figure
29. The workpiece must also be fairly heavy
relative to the cut being made. Under no
circumstances should a short, light workpiece be
shaped against the collars, as shown in Figure
30.
The collars may be used in any of the following
positions: above, below, or between the cutters.
1. When the collar is used below the cutter, as
shown in Figure 31, the progress of the cut
can be seen throughout the operation.
However, any accidental lifting of the work
will gouge the wood and ruin the workpiece.
