REPLACING BLADES
1. Make sure the switch is in the OFF position and that the cord
is unplugged before replacing the blades (Fig. 28 - 1). Block the
blade guard (Fig. 28 - 3) from closing using a scrap piece of
6-1/4-inch wood (Fig. 28 - 2) between the fence and the guard.
2. Loosen and remove the four blade lock screws (Fig. 29 - 1)
securing the blade (Fig. 29 - 2) and the blade clamp (Fig. 29 - 3).
3. Lift the blade and the blade clamp from the cutterhead, clean-
ing any sawdust and resin buildup from the cutterhead, the
blade and the blade clamp.
4. Place the new blade against the blade clamp and replace it
in the cutterhead, securing it in place with the four blade lock
screws. Do not tighten the blade lock screws until you have
checked that the blade height is level and properly aligned.
5. Adjust as required, using a straight edge as described in “Testing the Blade Height” on p. 14 of this
manual. Tighten the blade lock screws, check the blade adjustment, and make sure the blade is still
level with the outfeed table. Repeat this procedure to replace the other blade. Remove the scrap wood
and release the blade guard.
CLEANING & STORAGE
1. After every operation, use a vacuum to remove dust and chips from the tool surfaces, motor hous-
ing and work area. Keep the ventilation openings free from dust and debris to prevent the motor from
overheating.
2. Wipe the tool surfaces clean with a soft cloth or brush. Make sure water does not get into the tool.
3. Lubricate the table bracket and locking knobs if they become difficult to use.
WARNING:
To avoid cuts, wear cut-proof or cut-resistant gloves when preforming mainte-
nance work on the blades. Remove the gloves before operating the jointer.
