Removing or installing planer blades

CAUTION:
• Tighten the blade installation bolts carefully when attaching the blades to
the tool. A loose installation bolt can be dangerous. Always check to see
they are tightened securely.
• Handle the blades very carefully. Use gloves or rags to protect your
fingers or hands when removing or installing the blades.
• Use only the Makita wrench provided to remove or install the blades.
Failure to do so may result in overtightening or insufficient tightening of
the installation bolts. This could cause an injury.
To remove the blades, first loosen the two installation bolts one turn counter-
