Disassembling the Planer Blade(s)
(see figures G – H)
– To reverse or replace the planer blades, rotate
the blade drum 13 until the clamping jaw 12 is
parallel to the planer base plate 8.
– Loosen the three fastening screws 11 with the
Torx key 10 by approx. 1 – 2 turns. The clamp-
ing jaw 12 does not have to be removed.
– Rotate the blade drum a little and push the
planer blade 20 sidewards out of the blade
drum 13 with a piece of wood.
– Turn the blade drum by 180° and disassemble
the 2nd planer blade.
Assembling the Planer Blade(s)
(see figures I–J)
The guide groove of the planer blade always en-
sures continuous height adjustment when re-
placing or reversing it.
If required, clean the blade seat in the blade
drum 13 and the planer blade 20.
When assembling the planer blade, ensure that it
is seated properly in the blade holder of the
blade drum 13.
Each planer blade must be assembled and
aligned centered to the planer base plate 8. Af-
terwards, tighten the three fastening screws 11
with the Torx key 10, ensuring the correct tight-
ening sequence (
) on the clamping jaw 12.
Note: Before starting operation, check the fas-
tening screws 11 for tight seating. Rotate the
blade head 13 manually and ensure that the plan-
er blades do not graze.
Using Conversion Kits
Converting from HSS to TC
With the conversion kit 2 607 001 399 (see ac-
cessories), planers equipped with HSS planer
blades can be converted to TC planer blades.
– Loosen and remove the clamping jaw 12.
– Slide the planer-blade retainer 16 together
with the planer blade 15 out of the guide
groove 14 of the blade drum 13.
– Insert the conversion kit 2 607 001 399 into
the guide groove 14.
Bosch Power Tools
– Reattach the clamping jaw 12 and screw in
the fastening screws 11, but do not tighten
them yet.
– Insert the TC planer blade from the side into
the planer blade seat.
– Each planer blade must be assembled and
aligned centered to the planer base plate 8.
Afterwards, tighten the three fastening
screws 11 with the Torx key 10, ensuring the
correct tightening sequence (
clamping jaw 12.
Converting from TC to HSS
With the conversion kit 2 607 001 398 (see ac-
cessories), planers equipped with TC planer
blades can be converted to HSS planer blades.
– Unscrew the 3 fastening screws 11 with the
Torx key 10 and remove the clamping jaw 12.
– Slide the planer-blade retainer 16 together
with the planer blade 15 out of the guide
groove 14 of the blade drum 13.
– Insert the conversion kit 2 607 001 398 into
the guide groove 14 and align it centered to
the planer base plate 8.
– Reattach the clamping jaw 12 and tighten the
three fastening screws 11 with the Torx key
10. Ensure the correct tightening sequence
(
) on the clamping jaw 12.
Operation
Operating Modes
Adjusting the Planing Depth
With the adjustment knob 2, the planing depth
can be adjusted variably from 0–1.0 mm using
the planing depth scale 1 (scale graduation
= 0.2 mm).
Park Rest (see figure N)
The park rest 29 allows the machine to be set
down directly after operation, without danger of
damaging the working surface or the planer
blade. While planing, the park rest 29 is tilted up-
wards, enabling full contact of the rear part of
the planer base plate 8.
