Place the blade on the gauge base so that the blade edge is perfectly flush with the inside edge of the gauge plate. Place the adjust plate on the blade, then simply press in the heel of the adjust plate flush with the back side of the gauge base and tighten two screws on the adjust plate. Now slip the heel of the adjust plate into the drum groove, then fit the drum cover on it. Tighten the installation bolts evenly and alternately with the socket wrench.

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.
Refer to some examples below for proper and improper settings.
(A)Front base (Movable shoe)
(B)Rear base (Stationary shoe)
Correct setting |
|
| Although this side view cannot | |
(A) | (B) | show it, the edges of the blades | ||
| ||||
|
| run perfectly parallel to the rear | ||
|
|
| ||
|
|
| base surface. | |
Nicks in surface |
|
| Cause: One or both blades fails to | |
|
|
| have edge parallel to rear | |
|
|
| base line. | |
Gouging at start | (A) |
| Cause: One or both blade edges | |
| (B) | fails to protrude enough in | ||
|
|
| relation to rear base line. | |
Gouging at end | (A) |
| Cause: One or both blade edges | |
| (B) | protrudes too far in relation | ||
|
|
| to rear base line. |
