Sharpening planer blades

Always keep your blades sharp for the best performance possible. Use the sharpening holder to remove nicks and produce a fine edge.

First, loosen the two wing nuts on the holder and insert the blades (A) and (B), so that they contact the sides (C) and (D). Then tighten the wing nuts.

Immerse the dressing stone in water for 2 or 3 minutes before sharpening. Hold the holder so that the blades both contact the dressing stone for simultaneous sharpen- ing at the same angle.
