Can someone who owns this planer tell me what size wrench I need to pull the blades? A standard wrench wont fit in the slot, so I'll need to grind one down, but I need to know which size wrench to grind.
Can't tell you the size, but it will be metric for sure, as those are built in Brazil (at least mine was). Go to the pawn shop and pick up a handful at 50 cents each, and grind down the size that looks right. I grind down wrenches often to fit in a special situation, and at that price, I don't feel the slightest pang of regret.
I had the 22-640 and I think it was 10MM…going from memory. I lost the cheapie stamped wrench and had to grind one down. If you can determine that is the size, I would suggest buying one of these. They are surprising stout, no grinding needed, and very cheap.
13mm is pretty close to 7/16. It may be easier to find throwaway
SAE wrenches. I have a bunch of old SAE wrenches. I can mail you
one if you can't find something to grind down.
Loren A 13mm is closer to a 1/2, and a 11mm is closer to a 7/16. Just a heads up
