REMOVING OR INSTALLING PLANER BLADES
The condition of the blades will affect the precision of the cuts. Dull blades will
tear wood fibers and produce fuzzy surfaces.
NOTE:
Blades on this planer are reversible and must always be reversed
or replaced as a matched set. Unbalanced blades can cause
vibration and poor planing action while shortening the life of the
blade and the planer. Keeping a spare set of blades on hand is
recommended.
1. Disconnect the planer from the
power source.
2. Turn the planer upside down and
rotate the blade drum to expose
the clamping screws.
3. Loosen the three clamping screws
using the onboard blade wrench
stored in the planer body.
WARNING: PLANER BLADES ARE SHARP AND FRAGILE. WEAR PROTECTIVE
GLOVES TO PROTECT YOUR HANDS. HANDLE THE BLADES CAREFULLY TO
AVOID PERSONAL INJURY OR DAMAGE TO THE BLADES.
WARNING: DO NOT ATTEMPT TO SHARPEN OR USE RESHARPENED BLADES.
WARNING: MAKE SURE THAT THE PLANER IS UNPLUGGED FROM THE
POWER SUPPLY BEFORE MAKING ADJUSTMENTS OR INSTALLING OR
REMOVING BLADES.
CAUTION: THE BLADE DRUM CAN ROTATE AS YOU’RE DOING THIS SO BE
CAREFUL NOT TO CONTACT THE BLADE WITH YOUR HAND. IF THE SCREW
IS DIFFICULT TO LOOSEN, TRY TIGHTENING IT A LITTLE AND THEN LOOSEN
IT.
