Assembly
Blades Set Up
The blades must be adjusted so that the cutting edge is
level with the fixed base. (See "Blade leveling" below).
• To remove the worn blades, loosen the three adjusting
screws (A) with the included 8 mm wrench, turning them
counterclockwise.
• Slide the worn-out blade (B) through the cutting head
support block.
• With the worn blade out, now slide the new blade (C)
through the block and align the blades across the block.
• Tighten the three adjusting screws firmly. Remember that
a loose screw could be extremely dangerous. Check
regularly to see if they are tightened properly.
• Repeat the operation with the other blade.
CAUTION
Before installing the blades, turn off and
disconnect the tool, and clean any chips or foreign matter
from the cutting head. Use
replacement blades with the same dimensions and weight
or the cutting head will oscillate and vibrate causing poor
planning and perhaps machine breakdown.
• The blades are sharp on both sides. If one side becomes
dull or worn, turn it over to use the sharp side. When both
blades are worn, replace the blade. Do not attempt to
sharpen it.
If you are replacing the blades, replace both at the same
time, otherwise vibration may occur which shortens the
life of the blades and the tool.
Blades leveling
The blades must be adjusted to the height of the base (D),
If this is not the case, follow the instructions below:
• Slightly loosen the adjusting screws (A) with the 8 mm
wrench.
• Using the 2.5 mm hexagonal wrench provided, turn the
height control screws (E) clockwise to go up, and
counterclockwise to go down, as required by the planner.
• Level the height by resting a set square (F) on the fixed
base and the adjustable base (set to 0).
• Finally, tighten the adjusting screws with the 8 mm
wrench.
