Ram Stroke Indicator showing that the maximum travel was 7.5"

Unlike the 8-inch version, this earlier machine was fitted with a ram-positioning knob.

Although the tool slide swivel on the 7-inch shaper was limited by the use of  slots in the mounting plate it was possible (as shown in the picture below) to relocate the unit in a variety of positions by using holes tapped into the rams' end face.
