SHARPENING KNIVES

Your planer knives have 1/8" of extra material to allow for
resharpening. Ensure the knives are resharpened at the
same angle (42°). D WALT replacement blades (Cat No.
E
DW7332) are available at extra cost from your local dealer
or authorized service center.
Installing a new belt
1. TURN OFF AND UNPLUG THE PLANER.
2. Remove the two Phillips head screws from the front
and back of the right side cover of the planer.
3. Lift the entire cover straight up and pull the bottom out of
the slot.
NOTE: No tools are necessary to install a belt. The use of
a screwdriver or other tool may cause damage to the
pulleys and ultimately destroy the new belt.
4. Notice the grooves inside the belt.
5. Figure 27 - Start the belt on the top pulley (A) as shown
in Figure 1 with 3 grooves on the pulley.
6. Figure 28 - Guide the belt between the lower pulley
and the height adjustment screw (B).
7. With 3 grooves engaged on the large pulley, rotate it in
a clockwise direction.
8. Keep pressure on the edge of the belt to keep the
grooves engaged on the small pulley.
9. Figure 29 - Continue to keep pressure on the side of the
belt and rotate the large pulley while hopping the belt
further onto the pulleys.
10.In the final position, all of the belt grooves should be
engaged. The pulleys should rotate smoothly
11.Reinstall the side cover and the screws. Do not
overtighen the self-tapping screws.
Calibrating the Depth Adjustment
Scale
The depth adjustment scale on your planer is set at the
factory. However, with extended use, the depth adjustment
scale could show an incorrect measurement.
To check the depth adjustment scale, plane a piece of
wood, noting the measurement on the depth adjustment
scale.
Measure the finished thickness of the workpiece. If the
thickness of the workpiece does not match the reading on
the depth adjustment scale, loosen the two phillips head
screws shown in Figure 23. Adjust the pointer up or down
7
until its reading matches the finished thickness of the
workpiece. Securely re-tighten the screws.
Levelling the Table Extensions
After extended use, the table extensions might become
slightly out of level. To ensure that the tables are level,
place a straight edge on the table extension. The straight
edge should contact the edge of the table extension and
the main table (Figure 6). When levelling, press the edge of
the table extensions down to remove any play. For best
results, use a level long enough to contact the edges of
both table extensions.
If the table extensions are not level, loosen the jam nuts
and adjust the table extension support bolts up or down
(Figure 24).
Reset Button
Your planer is equipped with an18 amp circuit breaker. If
your planer becomes overloaded and stops operating, turn
off the planer and press in the reset button (Figure 25).
Maintenance
BRUSHES
Inspect carbon brushes regularly by unplugging tool,
removing the brush inspection cap (Figure 26) and
withdrawing the brush assembly. Keep brushes clean and
sliding freely in their guides. Always replace a used brush in
the same orientation in the holder as it was prior to its
removal. Carbon brushes have varying symbols stamped
into their sides, and if the brush is worn down to the line
closest to the spring, they must be replaced. Use only
identical D WALT brushes.
E
New brush assemblies are available at D
centers. The tool should be allowed to "run in" (run at no
load) for 10 minutes before use to seat new brushes.
TABLE
Keep the table clean and free from oil, grease and pitch.
Treat the table with paste wax to help maintain its smooth
finish.
Accessories
Recommended accessories for use with your tool are
available at extra cost from your distributor or local service
center.
CAUTION: The use of any non-recommended
accessory may be hazardous.
Important
To assure product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs,
maintenance and adjustment (including brush inspection and
replacement) should be performed by authorized service
centers or other qualified service organizations, always using
identical replacement parts.
