The Model D4934 13" Helical Cutterhead is 

equipped with 30 indexable carbide inserts. 

Each insert can be rotated to reveal any one 

of its four cutting edges. If one cutting edge 

becomes dull or damaged, rotate it 90˚ to reveal 

a fresh cutting edge, as shown in 

Figure

Rotating/Replacing Indexable Inserts

 

IMPORTANT: Proper cleaning is critical to 

achieving a smooth finish. Contaminants 

trapped between the insert and cutterhead 

will slightly raise the insert, making 

noticeable marks on your workpieces the 

next time you plane.

6.  Lubricate Torx screw threads with a light 

machine oil, wipe excess oil off threads, 

and torque screw to 

48-50 inch/pounds.

7.  Return planer to its original configuration 

by performing 

Steps 33–38 of Installing 

Helical Cutterhead instructions.

Replacement indexable carbide inserts for Model 

D4934 13" Helical Cutterhead.

Parts Breakdown & List

Each insert has a reference dot on one corner. 

As the insert is rotated, the reference dot 

location can be used as an indicator of which 

edges are used and which are new. When the 

reference dot revolves back to its starting 

position, the insert should be replaced.

To rotate or replace an insert, do these steps:

1.  DISCONNECT MACHINE FROM POWER!

2.  Cover table under cutterhead carriage with 

scrap cardboard to protect surface from 

dropped parts/tools.

3.  Gain access to cutterhead by performing 

Steps 2–6 of Removing Existing 

Cutterhead instructions.

4.  Remove Torx screw and carbide insert.

5.  Clean all dust and dirt off insert and 

cutterhead pocket from which insert was 

removed, and replace insert so a fresh, 

sharp edge is facing outward.
