After unplugging the tool, you may remove

the planer blades on the tool drum by un-

screwing the four installation bolts with

the socket wrench provided. The clamp

plate comes off together with the blades.

When you install new or sharpened 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, caus-

ing poor planing action and, eventually,

tool breakdown.

Screw the blade onto the adjust plate, slip

into the groove on the drum, then fit the

blade clamp on over

it.
