MOTOR  
Many Porter-Cable tools will operate on either D.C., or single phase 25 to 60  
cycle A.C. current and voltage within plus or minus 5 percent of that shown on  
the specification plate on the tool. Several models, however, are designed for  
A.C. current only. Refer to the specification plate on your tool for proper  
voltage and current rating.

CAUTION: Do not operate your tool on a current on which the  
voltage is not within correct limits. Do not operate tools rated A.C.  
only on D.C. current. To do so may seriously damage the tool.  
EXTENSION CORD SELECTION  
If an extension cord is used, make sure the conductor size is large enough to  
prevent excessive voltage drop which will cause loss of power and possible  
motor damage. A table of recommended extension cord sizes will be found in  
this section. This table is based on limiting line voltage drop to 5 volts (10 volts  
for 230 volts) at 150% of rated amperes.  
If an extension cord is to be used outdoors it must be marked with the suffix  
W-A following the cord type designation. For example SJTW-A to indicate it  
is acceptable for outdoor use.  
RECOMMENDED EXTENSION CORD SIZES FOR USE WITH PORTABLE ELECTRIC TOOLS  
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS  
FOREWORD  
Models 697 and 698 are designed to perform various shaping operations  
using standard router bits.  
Model 698 can be used with any Porter-Cable (or Rockwell) Professional  
Router. If using Model 7538 or 7539 Plunge Router: a Model 75300 Height  
Adjustment Knob must be installed and the Shaper Table must be mounted  
on a Model 6961 Stand (or a cut-out table) that provides clearance for the  
75300 Adjustment Knob (the knob will extend below the bottom of the  
Shaper Table legs).  
ASSEMBLING TABLE  
1. Locate the two table legs (see Fig. 5) and stand them up parallel to each  
other and approximately 12" apart. The leg with the switch mounted in it  
should be to your right, with the switch facing you. Both legs should slant  
toward the outside.  
2. Open hardware package.  
3. Place the table on top of the legs, with the miter gauge slot up and the  
large hole to the rear. Secure the table to the legs with four 14-20 ¥ 138"

FASTENING ROUTER/SHAPER TO WORK BENCH  
The Router/Shaper should be securely attached to a firm supporting structure  
(such as a work bench) to prevent movement of the machine during use. Two  
holes are provided in the bottom flange of each leg for mounting bolts, or the  
bottom leg flanges may be clamped to the support with C-clamps.  
SELECTING THE BIT  
The Router/Shaper will accommodate bits with shanks that are installed  
directly into the power unit collet. A table insert with the smallest diameter  
hole that will clear the selected bit should always be used.  
CAUTION: Do not use router bits larger in diameter than those  
recommended for your router (see following chart):

ADJUSTING THE FENCE  
Each fence may be adjusted individually for front-to-back position and for  
side-to-side position. Front-to-back position of the right (in-feed) fence will  
control the amount of material that is removed in each pass. Front-to-back  
position of the left (out-of-feed) fence is set to support the workpiece as it  
leaves the cutter. Side-to-side position should be adjusted so that each fence  
is just clear of the bit path (this will provide maximum support for the  
workpiece). Adjust as follows:  
CAUTION: DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER SOURCE  
BEFORE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS.  
1. Loosen right fence knob (A) Fig. 14, and right fence screw (B) Fig. 14.

USING THE ROUTER/SHAPER  
WARNING: Figures 17 and 20 through 27 show machine with cutter  
guards removed for clarity. NEVER OPERATE Router/Shaper without  
guards in place.  
IMPORTANT: Before using your machine, consider the kind and total  
amount of rnaterial to be removed. Depending on the material, it may be  
necessary to make more than one cut to avoid overloading the motor.  
Before beginning the cut on the actual workpiece, it is advisable to  
make a sample cut on a piece of scrap lumber. This will show exactly  
how the cut will look as well as enable you to check dimensions.  
The cutter rotates in a counterclockwise direction (viewing from above).  
Always feed work against the cutter rotation as shown in Fig. 17.  
WARNING: Serious injury could result if workpiece is not always fed  
into the cutter against the direction of rotation.  
The speed and depth of cut will depend largely on the type of material being  
worked upon. Keep the cutting pressure constant but do not crowd the  
machine so the motor speed slows excessively. It may be necessary on  
exceptionally hard woods or problem materials to make more than one pass  
at various settings to get the desired depth of cut.  
When making cuts on all four edges of the workpiece, it is advisable to have  
the first cut on the end of the piece across the grain. Thus, if chipping of wood  
occurs at the end of a cut, it will be removed when making the next cut  
parallel with the grain.

SHAPING WITH PILOTED BITS  
For shaping irregular edges a starting pin (A) Fig. 19, is furnished with your  
Router/Shaper for use with piloted router bits. Before installing the starting  
pin, remove: the retaining clips (A) Fig. 18, the front guard (B) Fig. 18, and the  
left hand (out-feed) fence assembly.  
WARNING: Donot remove the right hand (in-feed) fence, top cutter  
guard, and rear cutter guard assembly. This assembly must remain  
in place and be adjusted so that the top guard completely covers the  
installed cutter.  
Insert starting pin into either hole (C) or (D) Fig. 19. For majority of shaping  
operations the starting pin should be installed in hole (C) Fig. 19, as work  
must be fed against the direction of rotation of the cutter.

When using piloted bits only part of the edge of the workpiece can be cut  
since it is necessary to have the other part riding against the pilot.  
WARNING: Never leave less than 18" of the workpiece to ride  
against the pilot. Leaving less than 18" could cause the edge to  
splinter possibly resulting in serious injury.  
Adjust the right hand (in-feed) fence and guard assembly so that the top  
guard completely covers the cutting area of the installed cutter.  
Turn machine ON and allow it to come to full speed.  
Place workpiece in first position (see Fig. 20). Using the starting pin as a support,  
swing workpiece into cutter (second position Fig. 20). When cut is started, press  
workpiece against piloted bit and swing workpiece away from starting pin. After  
the cut is started the piloted bit acts as a guide and not the starting pin. Feed  
workpiece against the direction of rotation of the cutter until complete edge is  
shaped. Slide workpiece away from cutter and turn machine OFF .

SHAPING WITH FENCE  
When shaping straight edges, the fence can be used as a guide. The entire  
fence assembly or either the infeed or outfeed section can be adjusted  
independently as outlined under Adjusting the Fence .  
For normal work where a portion of the original edge of the work is not altered by  
the cutter, both the front and rear fences are in a straight line, as shown in Fig. 21.  
NOTE: Always check fences for correct alignment. The workpiece  
must slide along both fences smoothly. Always make a trial cut on  
scrap material to check your set-up.

END SHAPING  
Sufficient support of the work piece must be maintained during all shaping  
operations. This exists when the workpiece is long enough to rest firmly  
against both the infeed and outfeed fences when you are halfway through the  
cut. When end shaping a workpiece that is not long enough to be sufficiently  
supported halfway through the cut, a miter gauge (available as an accessory)  
or back-up block must be used (see Fig. 24 and 25).  
WARNING: Any attempt to end shape a narrow workpiece without  
sufficient support could result in serious injury.  
When using the miter gauge, the infeed fence assembly must be parallel to the  
miter slot. The outfeed fence must be adjusted so that it will not contact the  
workpiece after it has passed the cutter. Place workpiece firmly against the  
miter gauge and infeed fence and feed into cutter by pushing the miter gauge.  
WARNING: Failure to hold workpiece firmly against miter gauge  
during cut could result in slippage of the workpiece causing serious  
injury and damage to the workpiece.

CROSS-GRAIN SHAPING  
When shaping across the grain,  
some splitting at the end of the cut  
may result. This can be minimized by  
feeding the workpiece slowly across  
the cutter at the end of the cut. When  
shaping all four sides of a workpiece,  
do the cross-grain cuts first. Doing  
with-the-grain cuts last will usually  
remove the splintered end.

SHAPING NARROW MATERIAL  
When shaping narrow material (less than 3" wide) a support as shown in Fig.  
27 must be clamped to your Router/Shaper and the workpiece fed under this  
support with a push stick. The push stick should be slightly narrower and  
thinner than the workpiece.  
WARNING: Shaping narrow material without proper support and  
push stick could result in serious injury.
