To remove the blades on the drum, unscrew the 
installation bolts with the socket wrench. The drum cover 
comes off together with the blades. 
To install the blades, first clean out all chips or foreign 
matter adhering to the drum or blades. Use blades of the 
same dimensions and weight, or drum 
oscillation/vibration will result, causing poor planing 
action and, eventually, tool breakdown. 
Place the blade on the gauge base so that the blade 
edge is perfectly flush with the inside edge of the gauge 
plate. Place the adjusting plate on the blade, then simply 
press in the heel of the adjusting plate flush with the back 
side of the gauge base and tighten two screws on the 
adjusting plate. Now slip the heel of the adjusting plate 
into the drum groove, then fit the drum cover on it. 
Tighten all the installation bolts evenly and alternately 
with the socket wrench. 
Repeat the above procedures for the other blade.

1. 

Remove the existing blade, if the tool has been in 
use, carefully clean the drum surfaces and the 
drum cover. To remove the blades on the drum, 
unscrew the three installation bolts with the socket 
wrench. The drum cover comes off together with 
the blades.

2. 

To install the blades, loosely attach the adjusting 
plate to the set plate with the pan head screws and 
set the mini planer blade on the gauge base so 
that the cutting edge of the blade is perfectly flush 
with the inside flank of the gauge plate. 

3. 

Set the adjusting plate/set plate on the gauge base 
so that the planer blade locating lugs on the set 
plate rest in the mini planer blade groove, then 
press in the heel of the adjusting plate flush with 
the back side of the gauge base and tighten the 
pan head screws. 

4.  It is important that the blade sits flush with the 

inside flank of the gauge plate, the planer blade 
locating lugs sit in the blade groove and the heel of 
the adjusting plate is flush with the back side of the 
gauge base. Check this alignment carefully to 
ensure uniform cutting. 

5. 

Slip the heel of the adjusting plate into the groove 
of the drum.

6. 

Set the drum cover over the adjusting plate/set 
plate and screw in the three hex flange head bolts 
so that a gap exists between the drum and the set 
plate to slide the mini planer blade into position. 
The blade will be positioned by the planer blade 
locating lugs on the set plate. 

7. 

The blade's lengthwise adjustment will need to be 
manually positioned so that the blade ends are 
clear and equidistant from the housing on one side 
and the metal bracket on the other.
