I am not sure how to see that other than a parts diagram from the manual. Would be interesting to see inside it though!

Any chance you could use a combo square or tape to measure the depth that depth guage sets thr blades to? Lost mine immediately after opening the box and need to set my new blades 😬

I have no clue how to measure something like that because it is set to a 64th of an inch. I recommend spending a few bucks (less than $10) and getting a new gauge. The part number is - Dewalt 663315-00 Gauge. Be safe, and be blessed!

I have been setting my blades with the little setup block like yours. But when I set the depth of cut to zero it's still taking a healthy cut. I'll try the clamp on the set-up fixture idea. Good video. I'll add this comment too... I mostly use mine for hogging a rough cut or warped board to get it straighter then hand work, or use a jointer or planner. Point is, this may be a sort of precision tool and new or properly sharpened cutting edges are always the best. I have had times then I destroyed my blades on a nail or painted surfaces. For me, thou not the preferred method. Remove the blade from the machine. Leave the screws in the blade location plate, use drywall screws to attached a piece of lumber with the cutting edged exposed. Then use an angle grinder to create a new edge. The blades will not be the same nor square nor the correct cutting angle, however it will get you cutting again quickly. Of course after this your depth of cut dial will be way off. But for hogging this crude method will get you going. I guess after this crude sharpening we could reset the depth this the set-up block (or not) .. Ether way, this is a nice tool but the cutter don't last for ever. And I think there are carbide blades available but most of us don't have the ability to sharper carbide. Cheers.

I appreciate your comments! I found this tool to be very useful for doing things like removing the edge of a door when it's over painted or fine-tuning small pieces. I don't think I would really use this for cabinet building though, just not the precision you'd really need. Never thought about sharpening the blades with an angle grinder, it does sound like that could be a good option to just get you by. I guess I'm too lazy to sharpen my own stuff I just buy new. Stay sharp friend!

You can zero the cutting depth by removing the top front handle, this reveals a large depth screw. Then use a straight edge and adjust the forward sole plate

@CelticDelta Sweet! I'll have to look for that adjustment screw. Many Thanks!

Blade should be lvl at the back not at the front. Remember that fence at the front is adjustable

Where can I find the depth gauge?
@VEXSPA2 жыл бұрын
The gauge came with the planer. Not sure where you could buy one. Maybe try calling the 800 number for dewalt and asking directly. Best of luck sir.

Sorry I can not help. I don't trust sharpening them myself because it is such a precision tool. I would give them to a professional to be sharpened.
