Positioned so that they will not touch
against any part of the planer when
rotated.
Evenly pressed back toward the
holder to ensure that they are level.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
1. Align the groove on top of the blade
with the ridge of the blade holder and
carefully slide the blade onto the
blade holder, as shown in Figure 6.
2. Using a block of wood push the TC
blade back towards the blade holder
so that the inner side of the blade is
pressed against the sloping part of
the blade holder. (This will ensure
that the blades are level.)
3. Then tighten the Torx clamping
screws using the correct tightening
sequence (1, 2, 3), as shown in
Figure 4, and your planer is ready for
use.
Blade Retainer Screws - Under normal
circumstances, the position of the
retainer on the mini TC blade holders
does not require readjustment. If fact,
the screws that attach the retainer to
the blade holder are factory sealed with
a yellow fastening compound that
should not be disturbed. However, if you
believe that adjustments must be made,
proper adjustment is critical, and it is
best performed by a Bosch Factory
Service or Bosch Authorized Service
Center.
CONVERSION TO HIGH-SPEED
STEEL BLADES
The PL2632 Planer can be converted to
accept large HSS blades. The conversion
requires the optional PA1204 HSS
Blades with Retainers (pair). (Fig. 7)
Additional pairs of HSS blade, the
PA1205 large HSS blades, can also be
purchased separately.
REMOVAL OF MINI TC BLADE
HOLDERS AND RETAINERS
1. Rotate the blade drum until the
clamping jaw is parallel to the planer
shoe.
2. Loosen the three clamp screws
completely and remove the screws
and clamping jaw.
3. Slightly rotate the blade drum and
use a piece of wood to push the
blade, holder and retainer off of the
blade drum. Make sure to keep your
fingers away from the sharp edges of
the blade. If the blade is gummed and
difficult to remove, you may clean the
blade and clamp with mineral spirits,
lacquer thinner or alcohol.
4. Rotate the blade drum 180° and
repeat the procedure to remove the
second blade.
