4. Hold the blade drum in place and
carefully slide out the blade.
• You can also use a wooden
block to push the blade out of
the blade drum.
5. Clean out all foreign matter
adhering to the blade drum and
the blade using a brush or
compressed air, making sure eye
protection is worn.
6. Each planer blade has two
cutting edges and can be
reversed when one of the cutting
edges becomes dull or chipped.
• If one edge is dull, reverse the blade.
• If both edges are dull, remove the old blade and replace it with a new
one.
7. Slide the blade with the good side
exposed into the blade retainer of
the blade drum.
• Make sure the blade is
positioned in the center of the
blade drum.
• The flat side of the blade must
be facing the front of the
planer and the ridged side of
the blade must be facing the
back of the planer.
8. To ensure an even cut, the blade
should align with the outside edge
of the front and rear shoes. Place
a straight edge along the outside
edge of the front and rear shoe.
Slide the planer blade to just
contact the straight edge.
9. The blades must be mounted so
that the cutting edge is absolutely
level (parallel to the surface of the
rear shoe). Check that both ends of the blade protrude evenly from the
blade retainer of the blade drum.
