Instructions for replacing the infeed/outfeed rollers?

Post by Sazerac81 »

Does anyone have instructions for replacing the rollers on the shopsmith planers?

Is it simply loosening and removing the tension arms and pulling the whole assembly out or do I need to completely breakdown the two sides of the planer to accomplish removal/replacement of the infeed/outfeed rollers?

I have another knurled roller on hand that I would like to exchange for the current knurled roller to see if it helps fix my slight planer drift issue. Yes, it is still driving me a tad bit crazy even though planing performance is spot on.... I just don't like it when the manual states it should work this way and it doesn't work as specified in the manual.

Cheers,
John

If no official instructions, can anyone tell me if I need to take one side off to replace the infeed/outfeed roller?
