Rock-Solid Precision Ground Cast Iron Table
A stable and vibration-free work surface is essential for accuracy. This shaper features a precision-ground cast iron table, ensuring smooth operation and a solid foundation for even the most delicate cuts. With its large 32” x 26” surface area, you’ll have plenty of room to maneuver larger workpieces with confidence.
Powerful TEFC Motor in 3HP or 5HP Options
Whether you need the 3HP for fine detail work or the 5HP for heavy-duty shaping, this Totally Enclosed Fan-Cooled (TEFC) motor delivers smooth, reliable performance. It’s designed to prevent dust infiltration, extending the motor’s lifespan and ensuring consistent cutting power for all types of wood, from soft pine to dense hardwoods.
Four Spindle Speeds for Versatility
With speed options of 4,000, 6,000, 8,000, and 10,000 RPM, you can tailor the spindle’s performance to your specific project. Lower speeds handle larger cutters and heavier cuts, while higher speeds deliver exceptional detail and smooth finishes on intricate profiles. This flexibility means you can tackle everything from edge shaping to complex joinery with one reliable machine.
Reversible Spindle for More Shaping Possibilities
The spindle reverses direction, allowing you to use a wider variety of cutter orientations and grain directions for tear-out-free, professional results. This feature is particularly valuable for intricate woodworking where grain direction matters, reducing the chances of splintering and ensuring a superior finish on every piece.
Micro-Adjustable Independent Fence for Ultimate Precision
The fence system is fully independent and micro-adjustable, giving you fine-tuned control over your workpiece positioning. Adjusting both halves of the fence independently allows for precise alignment, ensuring cleaner cuts, better support, and a smoother feed-through process—perfect for creating flawless edge profiles and joinery.
Quick and Easy Belt Changes with Unique Tensioner
Time spent adjusting your machine is time away from crafting. This shaper features a quick-change belt system with a built-in tensioner, allowing you to switch speeds effortlessly. No more struggling with complex adjustments—just fast, convenient transitions so you can focus on getting the job done with maximum efficiency.
4 Inches of Vertical Spindle Travel for More Setup Options
The extra-long 4-inch spindle travel gives you more flexibility in your shaping setups, making it easier to handle a range of cutter sizes. Whether you’re working on deep profiles, stacked cutter arrangements, or larger pieces, this feature allows for precise adjustments and greater versatility in your projects.
Adjustable Hold-Downs for Safety and Control
Safety and precision go hand in hand, and this shaper includes adjustable hold-downs to keep your workpieces firmly in place. This helps prevent shifting and kickback, ensuring smooth, controlled cuts every time. With greater stability and reduced hand strain, you can work more comfortably and confidently on even the most intricate designs.
Full Cabinet Stand with Locking Wheels for Stability & Mobility
Unlike benchtop models, this shaper is housed in a fully enclosed cabinet stand that adds weight and stability while also keeping dust and debris contained. For added convenience, the built-in locking wheels allow for easy mobility when repositioning is needed, while ensuring rock-solid support when locked in place.
Magnetic Controls for Enhanced Safety
The magnetic control system adds an extra layer of protection, preventing accidental start-ups and providing a fail-safe in case of power loss. This ensures that the machine won’t restart unexpectedly when power is restored, protecting both you and your workpiece from potential hazards.
