Re: Shaper hose replacment KF 700
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýI posted replacing this hose few months ago. I was able to do it without removing the power feeder. I had to remove the 2 studs and pull out the plastic cover. I am not sure if the plastic cover needed to be removed or I decided to do it because I wanted to clean it. The PF hangs off the F channel and I kept the PF in a location that kept pressure on the bottom of the bracket such that it was being driven into the machine.I will find my post after dinner and share. Hopefully, I put more details in it. IIRC, the hose is 90 mm and it was a pain to get the 2 ends connected. I am remembering more as I type. I did removed the dust collector port in the process.

? I see from searching that the main hose replacement has been discussed quite a bit, but my 2008 machine main hose is in good shape.

However, the 100 mm hose from the shaper cavity just under the saw top surface, which has a hose (100 mm?) leading down to a plastic chute on the side of the saw has disintegrated down to the wire loops.
I took off the lower metal access panel, and can get to the exit connector, but the top one is another story.

First, I have my power feeder bracket installed with the feeder on it. And I have the auxilary side table mounted to the back of the saw cabinet.?
Maybe the only way to service this is to take off the power feeder, the power feeder bracket and the lift cylinder, then remove the side plastic shroud on the side, and see if I can get to it then.?
Other ideas??
?
Thanks, Mike Ward
