To remove the planer blades from the tool, perform the installation procedure in reverse.
NOTICE: To install planer blades, clean out all chips or foreign matter adhering to the
drum or the planer blades. Use planer blades of the same dimensions and weight,
otherwise drum oscilla- tion/vibration, causing poor planing action, and tool breakdown
will result.
NOTICE: Make sure that the planer blade and planer blade assembly are properly and
firmly install in place after installing.
For the correct planer blade setting
Your planing surface will end up rough and
uneven, unless the blade is set properly and
securely.
The blade must be mounted so that the cutting
edge is absolutely level, that is, parallel to the
surface of the rear base.

Dust bag
Attach the dust bag onto the left or right chip
discharge opening. The chip discharge opening
is tapered. When attaching the dust bag, push it
onto the chip discharge opening firmly as far as
it will go to prevent it from coming off during
operation.
When the dust bag is about half full, remove the
dust bag from the tool and pull the fastener out.
Empty the dust bag. Tap the dust bag lightly to
remove particles adhering inside, which might
hamper further collection.
