Hi folks,
My Dewalt 735 planer started making a "flappy" noise after planing about 200 bf of ash for a workbench. I took the belt cover off and noticed that the nut on the end of the blade bar. I put it back on, but the synthetic belt that drives the blade wheel is loose. Is there a way to tighten up the belt so that it doesn't flap? Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I apologize for the highly technical terms like "flappy". :)
Thanks,
Tom
