Based on the search function, I'm going to try and clean my rollers and wax the bed to see if this resolves my jamming problem. BUT, if I need to replace the rollers, are the entire rollers replaced or is there a slip on type covering? Can't find my #$^ owners manual right now and can't seem to find one online. Thanks!

Jim:

It looks like the entire roller would be replaced. Per my manual, the DeWalt part number is 285940-00.

Hope this helps

I have the DW733.... don't know the answer to your question, but, if you PM me with your email, I can send you a PDF version of the manual.

Thank you Richard and Ed for your replies. Found the manual and it's an entire roller. Cleaning the rollers helped as did waxing the bottom plate and I realigned the blades and it's now working fine. I bought it used 4 years ago and aside from having blades sharpened I've never had a problem with it. Keeping my fingers crossed that it was just a bad combination of sun, moon and stars.
