should contact the edge of the table extension and the main
table (Fig. 7). When leveling, 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 exten-
sions.
If the table extensions are not level, loosen the jam nuts (T)
and adjust the table extension support bolts (S) up or down
(Fig. 26).
NOTE: The outside edges of the extension tables are level
with the base while the inside edges (closest to the cutter
head) are below the edge of the base. This is set at the fac-
tory to reduce unnecessary friction between the material and
the table while providing adequate support at the two points
(those farthest from the cutter head) on the tables that are
integral to snipe prevention.
TABLE
Keep the table clean and free from oil, grease and pitch. Treat
the table with paste wax to help maintain its smooth finish.
Circuit Breaker Reset Button
(Fig. 27)
Your planer is equipped with an 18 amp circuit breaker. If
your planer becomes overloaded and stops operating, turn
off the planer, let the unit sit for 2 minutes and press the reset
button (U) before you resume working.
WARNING: To prevent the planer from starting unexpect-
edly if power is interrupted by a circuit breaker trip, make sure
the switch is in the OFF position before restoring power.
NOTE: Circuit breaker overload is often the result of dull
knives. Change your knives on a regular basis to avoid trip-
ping your breaker. Check your knives before re-setting the
circuit breaker and continuing to plane.
See the Troubleshooting Guide at the end of this section for
more information.
Brushes
Inspect carbon brushes regularly. 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 brushes are worn down to the line closest to
the spring, they must be replaced. Use only identical
D
EWALT brushes.
New brush assemblies are available at D
EWALT service
centers. After replacing brush assemblies, the tool should be
allowed to “run in” (run at no load) for 10 minutes to seat new
brushes before using.
TO REMOVE BRUSH ASSEMBLY (FIG. 28)
WARNING: DISCONNECT TOOL FROM THE POWER
SOURCE BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO REMOVE BRUSH
ASSEMBLY.
1. Remove the brush inspection cap (V).
2. Withdraw the brush assembly.
