Assembly

CHIP EXTRACTION

The planer comes with two chip exhaust ports, which may be used with a chip bag (Fig.2) or a shop vacuum and vacuum connector (Fig.3) to keep your work environment cleaner. The chip bag or vacuum connector may be attached to either end of the exhaust port.

Moving the port selector lever to position 1 (towards front of tool) discharges chips to the left, while position 2 (towards rear of tool) discharges chips to the right. (Fig. 1)

Included is the VAC002 adapter that will connect the hood to 1-1/4” and 1-1/2” vacuum hoses. An adapter to connect the hood to 2-1/2" hoses is also available separately.

PLANER BLADES

•There are three types of blades that can be used with the Bosch 1594 planer; standard mini tungsten carbide blades, Bosch Woodrazor micrograin mini tungsten carbide blades (standard equipment with the Bosch 1594 planer), and large HSS blades.

•While the Bosch 1594 mini tungsten carbide blades are sharper and more durable than standard mini tungsten carbide blades, the assembly and adjustment of both of Woodrazor and standard tungsten carbide blades are the same. Henceforth, all references in this manual to “mini TC blades” refer to both Woodrazor blades and standard mini tungsten carbide blades.

•To use large HSS blades with the 1594 it is necessary to purchase optional accessories.

(OPTIONAL)

Always changes both blades at the same time. Otherwise, imbalance can cause vibration and reduce the useful service life of the tool. Use only blades designated for use with this model, because other blades can cause vibration, decrease performance and may not clamp securely in blade holder. Do not attempt to sharpen or use re-sharpened any TC blades.

To remove the blades:

1.Rotate the blade drum until the clamping jaw is parallel to the planer shoe.

2.Loosen the three clamp screws by about one revolution each. (It is not necessary to remove the clamping jaw.) (Fig.4)

3.Slightly rotate the blade drum and use a piece of wood to push the blade sideways and out from under the clamping jaw. Make sure to keep your fingers away from the sharp edges of the blade. If the blade is gummed and difficult to remove, you may clean the blade and clamp with mineral spirits, lacquer thinner or alcohol. (Fig. 5)
