6.7.1.
Blades are sharp and can cause serous personal injury. The planer blades are reversible. When one edge becomes dull, the blade
can be reversed so that the other side can be used.
Always replace or reverse blades in pairs. Do not attempt to sharpen blades. If the blades in the planer show signs of becoming dull,
chipped, or damaged in any way, replace them. When replacing the blades, use recommended replacement blade only,

Secure the planer in an upside-down position.
6.7.3.
Loosen the three screws securing the blade on the blade holder by turning counter-clockwise with the provided blade spanner.
(fig.6 and fig.7)
NOTE: DO NOT over-loosen the screws. If screws are too loose, alignment of the new blade will not be accurate.
NOTE: Before removing the old blades, take notice of the direction of cut as well as how the tapered edge of the old blades are
oriented. The tapered edge of the new blades must be in the same orientation as the original blades, with the tapered edge on the
same side as the screw heads and the flat edge facing the cutter block. (fig.8)
