This authentic part is supplied by the original equipment manufacturer for use with DeWALT planers. The spring applies tension on the connected parts. Unfortunately, over time it will wear out and it may begin to stretch eventually requiring a replacement. This high-quality spring is made of durable metal and is sold as an individual item. Check the diagrams for your model to ensure the proper repair procedure. A wrench set and pliers might be needed to replace this spring.
Removed the rollers and and springs from the unit after reviewing utube video. The repair is fairly straightforward and routine. One note the screws holding the rollers are extremely tight to prevent lossening during operation, they may even be loctited in place. I used an offset philips head to get better leverage in the small space.
... Read more I destroyed one screw while removing (stripped out the head). They are M5-0.8 12mm long round head screws. To make replacements easier in the future I replaced the screws with torx head screws. They have the same profile just get a better grip with the torx bit than the phillips head. The parts supplied were perfect and the springs probably don\'t need replaced every time the rollers go bad, I tested the old and new springs with a compression tension gage and found only about 5-8% difference between the old and the new, maybe chane every other or every third time.
