R.P.D.C. Shaper Operating Instructions
Operating instructions for the Hammer Machinery Co. R.P.D.C. (Raised Panel Door Cutter) Shaper—a workshop manual covering the three-table setup essential to door component manufacturing. The main table handles panel cutting, the middle table processes frame tongue-ends, and the top table cuts the matching grooves. Detailed procedures walk through both square and arch panel cuts, fence positioning and adjustment, and curve cutting techniques for complex profiles. The guide explains how to achieve proper gap tolerances between groove and tongue joints, critical for seamless assembly. Also includes specifications for the standard cut profiles (#1-C and #2-S cope-sticking patterns) with technical diagrams and dimensional references throughout. A practical service and repair reference for operators and technicians maintaining or troubleshooting Hammer R.P.D.C. machinery.
