2) Fitting the blades: (See Fig 36-38)
• Fit the blade correctly into the clamping device.
• Slide both components into the cutter-block,
taking care that they are fitted in the correct
direction etc.
• Centre the blade assembly laterally.
• Set the blade setting block (C) over the cutter-
block.
• Pull the setting block back so that it sits firmly
against the front edge of the planing out-feed
table (13).
• Put firm downward pressure on the setting
block whilst keeping it firmly against the edge of
the out-feed table. This will push the blade into
place.
• Keep firm pressure on the setting block and
tighten the 5 blade tensioning screws.
• Once complete, turn the cutter-block to expose
the 2nd blade and repeat the process to replace
that blade.
Note: Once this operation is complete, ensure
that the cutter-block turns freely by hand before
re-connecting the machine to the mains supply.
Replace all safety guards immediately after
completing this operation.
