USING MOULDING CUTTERHEAD

Moulding is cutting a shape on the edge or face of the work.

Cutting mouldings with a moulding cutterhead is a fast, safe

and clean operation.The many different knife shapes

available make it possible for the operator to produce

almost any kind of mouldings, such as various styles of

corner moulds, picture frames, table edges, etc.

The moulding head consists of a cutterhead in which can be

mounted various shapes of steel knives, (Fig. 57). Each of

the three knives in a set is fitted into a groove in the

cutterhead and secur

ely clamped with a screw. The knife

grooves should be kept free of sawdust which would

prevent the cutter from seating properly.

For certain cutting operations (dadoing

and moulding) where the workpiece is not cut

completely through, the blade guard and splitter

assembly cannot be used. Loosen screws (G) and (H)

Fig. 58. Lift up and swing blade guard and splitter

assembly (W) Fig. 59 to the rear of the saw and retighten

(H).

Use pushsticks, hold-downs, jigs,

fixtures, or featherboards to help guide and control the

workpiece when the guard cannot be used.

NOTE: The outside arbor flange cannot be used with the

moulding cutterhead. Tighten the arbor nut against the

cutterhead body. Do not lose the outside arbor flange. It

will be needed when reattaching a blade to the arbor.

Always return and fasten the blade guard

and splitter assembly to its proper operating position for

normal thru-sawing operations.

1. A moulding cutterhead (A) Fig. 60 is shown assembled to

the saw arbor.

The accessory moulding cutterhead

table insert (B) must be used in place of the standard

table insert.

2. When using the moulding cutterhead, add wood-facing

attached to the fence with wood screws through holes which

must be drilled in the fence. Stock that is 3/4″ inch thick is

suitable for most work, although an occasional job may

require 1 inch facing.

3. Position the wood-facing over the cutterhead with the

cutterhead below the surface of the table. Turn the saw on

and raise the cutterhead. The cutterhead will cut its own

groove in the wood-facing.

Never use a moulding cutterhead in a

bevel position.

Never run the stock between the fence and

the moulding cutterhead. Irregular shaped wood will cause

kickback.

Special attention should be given the

grain direction. Make all cuts in the same direction as

the grain whenever possible.

Always install blade guard after

operation is complete.
