To Change Blades (Fig. 7, 8, 9, 10) WARNING: To reduce the risk of serious personal injury, turn tool off and disconnect tool from power source before making any adjustments or removing/ installing attachments or accessories. NOTE: The DW680- XE has two blades, one on each side of the blade drum, as shown in Figure 7. Any operation or adjustment should be made to both blades. Reversible Carbide Blades 1. To Remove Blade from Planer a. Loosen and remove the three hex head screws (J) with the 5 mm hex wrench provided. Remove the drum cover (K) from the drum (Q). b. Remove the blade carrier/guide bar assembly. Carefully remove the carbide blade (I). FIG. 7 M Q FIG. 8 I KQ L P J I FIG. 9 P M O N N J K L M P RM OPFIG. 10 LI 2. To Adjust Blade Using Gauge Plate (provided with tool) a. Cautiously place the carbide blade on the gauge plate (N) with the grooved side of the carbide blade facing up. Either edge of the reversible carbide blade can be set flush against the gauge plate inside wall (O). b. Place the blade carrier/guide bar assembly on the blade so that the rib on the blade carrier (L) fits into the groove on the carbide blade (I). The heel of blade carrier (M) will overlap the end of the gauge plate (N). c. Loosen the two hex screws (P) with the 2.5 mm hex wrench 6 d. Simultaneously push the blade carrier (L) and the guide bar (M) into the gauge plate inside wall (O), making sure that the carbide blade (I) is held firmly against the gauge plate inside wall (O) and securely tighten the two hex screws (P). 3. To Reinstall Blade a. Remove the adjusted blade carrier/guide bar assembly from the gauge plate (N) and place the heel of the guide bar (M) into the groove on the drum (Q). b. Place the drum cover (K) over the blade carrier/guide bar assembly. Loosely screw the three hex screws (J) into the drum (Q) so that there is a small gap between the drum and the blade carrier (L). c. Slide the carbide blade between the drum (Q) and the blade carrier (L) so that the rib on the blade carrier sets into the groove in the blade. d. Center the carbide blade (I) under the blade carrier (L) making sure the blade is clear of the tool housing on both sides. e. Securely tighten the three hex screws (J) to the drum. 4. Repeat procedure for the other blade. High-speed Steel Blades 1. To Remove Blade from Planer a. Loosen and remove the three hex head screws (J) with the 5 mm hex wrench provided. Remove the drum cover (K) from the drum (Q). b. Cautiously remove the guide bar/high speed steel blade assembly. 2. To Adjust Blade Using Gauge Plate (provided with tool) a. Place the guide bar/high speed steel blade assembly on the gauge plate (N) with the cutting edge of the high speed steel blade flush against the gauge plate inside wall (O). The heel of the guide bar (M) will overlap the end of the gauge plate (N). b. Loosen the two hex screws (P) with the 2.5 mm hex wrench provided. c. Simultaneously push the high speed steel blade (R) and the guide into the gauge plate inside wall (O), making sure that the blade is against the gauge plate inside wall (O) and securely tighten hex 3. To Reinstall Blade a. Cautiously remove the adjusted guide bar/high speed steel blade assembly from the gauge plate (N) and place the heel of the guide bar (M) into the groove in the drum (Q). b. Set the drum cover (K) over the adjusted guide bar/high speed steel blade assembly and securely tighten the three hex screws (J) to the drum. 4. Repeat procedure for the other blade. Parking Foot (Fig. 11) Your planer is equipped with a parking foot (S) FIG. 11 TFIG. 12 that automatically lowers into place when the tool is lifted from the work surface. When planing, the parking foot raises as the tool is pushed forward. When the parking foot is lowered, the planer can set on the work S surface without the blade touching. Edge Chamfering (Fig. 12) Your planer has three precision machined chamfering grooves (T) in the front shoe for planing along a corner of the wood (Fig. 12). The width of the grooves are 1.5 mm, 2 mm, and 2.5 mm. It’s a good idea to try a...
