REMOVAL OF MINI TC BLADE

HOLDERS AND RETAINERS

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

2.Loosen the three clamp screws completely and remove the screws and clamping jaw.

3.Slightly rotate the blade drum and use a piece of wood to push the blade, holder and retainer off of the blade drum. 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.

4.Rotate the blade drum 180° and repeat the procedure to remove the second blade.

INSTALLATION OF HSS BLADES

AND RETAINERS

Before inserting a new or sharpened blade, clean all surfaces (blades, retainer and drum) with mineral spirits; lacquer thinner or alcohol, as this will ensure an accurate blade setting and proper tool performance.

New or re-sharpened plane blades must be properly leveled before installation using the optional PA1206 HSS Blade Leveling Fixture. (The PA1204 HSS Blades with Retainers are leveled at the factory.)

To ensure proper operation and an even cut, the blades must be positioned so that they are:

•Centered relative to the front and rear shoes.

•Aligned with each other.

•Positioned so that they will not touch against any part of the planer when rotated.

Procedure:

1.To install the blades, carefully slide the blade/retainer assembly sideways to over one of the two clamping areas on the blade drum. The retainer must engage in the groove. (Fig. 8)
