PREPARATION

Warning:
Always ensure that the tool is switched off and unplugged
from the power supply before making any adjustments,
and before fitting or removing the blade or sanding drums
UNPACKING yOUR TOOL
Carefully unpack and inspect your tool. Familiarise yourself
with all its features and functions.
Ensure that all parts of the tool are present and in good
condition. If any parts are missing or damaged, have such
parts replaced before attempting to use this tool.
REPLACING BLADES
• Always completely remove the blade drum prior to
installing new blades. For your own safety, it is not
recommended to remove the planer blades while the
drum is still installed in the planer.
• The planer is fitted with reversible blades. Blades can
be reversed when blunt. After both sides of the blade
have been used, they must be discarded.
• Replacement planer blades are available from your
Triton retailer (Part no. TRPPB)
REMOVING THE BLADE DRUM
1. Place the planer on its side so that the motor is facing
down
2. Press the Drum Guard Release
Lever (3) to raise the Drum Guard

3. Insert the short end of the
supplied Hex Key (13) into the
screw head in the centre of the
blade drum
4. Press the Drum Spindle Lock Button (26), and rotate
GB the drum until it is locked. Note: The blade drum has

5. Keep the spindle locked whilst you loosen and remove
the hex head screw, and then the two flat washers
6. Carefully remove the drum from the spindle Warning:
The blades are very sharp. Take care when handling
the drum
REMOVING PLANER BLADES
1. Secure the blade drum in a vice
with one Blade (14) facing up so
that it is accessible
2. Protect the drum with a cloth or
similar padding when putting it
in the vice
3. Using the Spanner (12), loosen
the three screws on the blade
clamp just sufficiently to remove
the clamp from the drum
4. Carefully remove the blade from
the blade clamp slot
INSTALLING PLANER BLADES
• The blades have a cutting edge on both sides so are
reversible. If a blade is worn or damaged on one side,
you can re-install it the other way round to use the
other cutting edge
• IMPORTANT: A single blade may be replaced only if
it is damaged. If the blade is worn, you must replace
all three blades in the drum to prevent unbalanced
operation, which can cause dangerous vibration and
damage to the tool
• If replacing blades, use blades of the same dimensions
and weight, or the drum will oscillate and vibrate
causing poor planing action and possibly breakdown
• The quality of finish relies on correct installation of the
blades. Clean away any woodchips or other foreign
matter adhering to the blade drum or clamps
1. Slide the blade into the slot in the blade clamp so that:
• The new cutting edge is face up
• The raised back of the blade is positioned on the
opposite side to the clamping screws, and the flat
face of the blade is pointing towards the clamping
screws
2. Check that the blade is centred in the slot and is fully
inserted. This is essential in order to enable correct
rebating and to prevent the blade coming into contact
with the drum guard – this may break the guard and
cause an injury
3. Now re-fit the blade clamp. Ensure that it is facing the
correct way and that it sits square in the drum
4. Tighten the Clamping Screws (15) evenly as follows:
a. Tighten the two outside clamping screws snug tight,
then the middle screw
