Pulley alignment is important to the performance of your 
shaper. If the pulleys are just slightly out of alignment, 
the shaper may suffer from power loss and decreased 
V-belt life.

)%  Remove the motor cover from the back of the shaper 

cabinet to expose the motor and pulleys.

*%  Check the alignment with a straightedge. If the 

pulleys are in alignment, the straightedge should 
touch the two sides of each pulley evenly, as shown 
in 

=`^li\,*.

other, no adjustments are needed. Replace the 
motor cover.

+%  This process is easiest with the help of another 

person. Loosen the four bolts that attach the motor 
to the motor base. One person should adjust the 
motor either up or down while the other person 
measures the alignment of the pulleys with a 
straightedge.

,%  When the pulley alignment is correct, re-tighten the 

motor to the motor base. 

-%  Inspect your results. If necessary, repeat this 

procedure until the pulleys are properly aligned.

 

Efk\1You can also make small adjustments in the 
motor pulley alignment by raising or lowering it 
along the motor shaft. To do this, loosen the two 
set screws (one is shown in 

=`^li\,*) which are in 

the groove of the middle motor pulley and move the 
pulley into position. Tighten the set screws when the 
alignment is satisfactory.
