MAINTENANCE
WARNING!
Always turn the planer OFF and disconnect it from the power source before starting any main-
tenance work.
REPLACING BLADES
Blades should always be reversed or replaced as a matched set (at the same time).
1. Get the magnetic blade tool.
2. Adjust the rollercase to a height of about 2-1/4” (refer to the
depth scale, Fig. 7 - 2). Remove the dust chute.
3. Insert the included hex wrench into the hole above the depth
stop label (Fig. 10; adjust the height of the rollercase if necessary).
Use the hex wrench to turn the cutterhead, so the blades are easily
accessible. The cutterhead lock will automatically engage when the
cutterhead is in the right position.
4. Use the star wrench to loosen the 7 mounting bolts about 4 - 5
turns (Fig. 11). Do not remove the bolts from the gib.
5. With the hook-and-loop side of the magnetic blade tool facing
down, slide the magnetic strip between the blade and the gib. Make
sure the tool is centered on the blade.

WARNING!
NEVER grasp the cutterhead with unprotected hands. This will result in serious injury.
WARNING!
Blade edges are extremely sharp. Keep fingers
away from the blades at all times.

6. The blade is located in position by two pins. Gently lift the old
blade off the cutterhead and slide it out from under the gib. Do not
make contact with the blade with your bare fingers (Fig. 12).
7. Clean off any dust or debris from blade, as well as the cutterhead.
NOTE:
Proper cleaning of the blades and cutterhead is crucial to
achieving a good-quality cut. Dirt or dust trapped between the blade
and cutterhead may cause the blade to be improperly mounted, and
create noticeable marks on the workpiece.
