I’ve had my Cutech 13” planer for a number of years and it’s always run like a top.
I finally decided to change out the cutter heads, so I followed the procedure in the manual.
Now it no longer feeds. If I push the board through it planes, but it worked fine before changing the cutter heads. Anyone have any ideas?
I appreciate any thoughts.

you changed the cutting circle, now the rollers doing their job before are not. whats the difference in size in cutting heads.

No difference. I should have said I rotated the cutters, rather than replacing them.
they have 2 cutting sides.

First thing on feed problems is to wax the bed.

+1 No guarantee this will fix your issue but it's the easiest fix if that's what your issue is.

After tons of use my little Delta bench top planer would no longer feed. I covered the rollers with grip tape. I painted the rollers with contact cement prior to applying the grip tape. The planer was destined for the scrap bin so I gave the grip tape a try. So far so good! It is back in action. It was tricky to get the grip tape on just right.
