This piece seems like it could be a damaged washer or bushing of some kind that could be related to the misbehaving feed roller.Īn exploded parts diagram of the DW733 is at. Later that day, I noticed a piece of deformed plastic on the floor near the planer. The right end would remain in its normal place. Viewing from the infeed side, I noticed that the left end of the rubber feed roller on the outfeed side would drop down briefly, maybe about 1/8 inch, with each clunk sound. I then ran the planer with no work piece. After planing, the work piece had a very slight snipe mark every few inches.Īt first, I thought it might be dull knives, so I replaced them with a new set. With each clunk, the work piece stopped feeding briefly. Recently while planing some rough-sawn cedar, the planer started making a "clunk" sound about every two seconds.
