Have just purchased a Chicago Shaper/Router and have no idea how to
operate the shaper end of the machine. Do I need special blades for the
shaper? Please help.

A shaper can be dangerous if you don't know what your doing. If I
were you I wold wait and find someone to show you the ins and outs of
the machine before using. Maybe the folks that sold it to you.

If you don't know how to operate it, allow me to suggest taking a class.
IMHO, thats the scariest machine in the shop.

And, yes, it does use different cutters.
