CARRYING HANDLE/STOCK
TRANSFER BAR
1. Your planer is provided with a foam covered carrying
handle (A) Fig. 17, located on top of the machine, for
ease in transporting the planer.
2. The carrying handle (A) Fig. 18, also doubles as a
stock transfer bar for transferring stock from the
outfeed to infeed end of the machine. This is helpful
when planing long material, as the workpiece can
easily be transferred back to the infeed end of the
machine for additional cuts.
REPLACING KNIVES
The knives supplied with your planer are double edged
and reversible, which enables you to turn the knives
end-for-end when one edge becomes dull or chipped. To
change the knives, proceed as follows:
Disconnect tool from power source.
1. Raise head assembly all the way to the top.
2. Remove cutterhead guard (B) Fig. 19 by removing
two knobs, one of which is shown at (A).
The knives are sharp. Be careful when
removing, handling or installing knives.
3. Using the supplied wrench (E) Fig. 20, unscrew the
six screws at (F), only enough until locking bar (D)
separates from knife, allowing knife to be removed.
