 Remove the battery pack.
 Secure the planer in an upside-down position.
 Loosen the two screws securing the blade and blade
clamp on the blade holder using the blade wrench
provided. Loosen the screws just enough to remove the
old blade.
NOTE: 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.
 Push the blade (to the right) out of the blade holder using
the tip of a screwdriver.
 Remove the old blade from the blade holder.
NOTE: If you cannot easily push the blade out of the blade
holder after loosening the screws, use a block of wood
to break the blade loose from the blade holder. Give the
blade a short, sharp blow, then push it with a screwdriver
to remove. If necessary, tap the block of wood sharply
with a small hammer to break the blades loose.
 Clean any sawdust or wood chips from around the blade
area.
 Slide the new blade into the slot of the blade holder.
 Use a screwdriver to push the blade into the blade holder
until it is centered into position.
 Tighten the two screws using the blade wrench.
 Repeat the above procedure to change the other blade.
REPLACING THE BELT
See Figures 15 - 16, page 12.
When replacing the belt, use recommended replacement
belt only (Part No. 570279002).
 Remove the battery pack.
 Remove the belt cover screws.
CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65
WARNING:
This product and some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drilling, and other construction activities may
contain chemicals, including lead, known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive
harm. Wash hands after handling.
Some examples of these chemicals are:
• lead from lead-based paints,
• crystalline silica from bricks and cement and other masonry products and,
• arsenic and chromium from chemically treated lumber.
Your risk from exposure to these chemicals varies, depending on how often you do this type of work. To reduce your
exposure, work in a well-ventilated area and with approved safety equipment, such as dust masks that are specially
designed to filter out microscopic particles.
MAINTENANCE
 Remove the belt cover.
 Force the old belt from the small pulley by turning in the
direction shown. As you turn the belt, pull and work it
off the small pulley until it has been completely removed
from both pulleys.
 Install the new belt over the large pulley. As you turn the
belt, push and work it onto the small pulley until it is in
place.
 Make sure the belt is flush with the edge of both pulleys.
 Replace the belt cover.
 Install the belt cover screws and tighten securely.
NOTE: Do not overtighten the screws.
CLEANING THE CHIP EXHAUST AND EMPTYING
THE DUST BAG
See Figure 17, page 12.
After using the planer for an extended period of time or when
planing wet or green lumber, chips may build up in the chip
exhaust. Chip build-up restricts air flow and causes the
motor to overheat. Clean the chip exhaust port and empty
the dust bag regularly.
 Remove the battery pack from the tool.
 Remove the dust bag from the chip exhaust.
 Clean the buildup from the chip exhaust port with a small
piece of wood. Do not use your hands or fingers.
 Unzip the dust bag.
 Empty all debris from the dust bag and ensure that the
collar is free of debris.
 Replace the dust bag.
