The DeWalt DW735 thickness planer is one of the most-used tools in my shop. It was recently time to change the blades, so I recorded this video to show how to do that and I included a few maintenance and tip suggestions as well.

EXCELLENT tips.....thanks so much for sharing!!! I have this same Dewalt planer but haven't had to change the blades yet. I was apprehensive about when I will have to do it but after watching your video I wouldn't worry about giving it a try. I also use a lot of thin stock for scroll saw work so I appreciate your tip on how to do that!
