Looks like you have the DW733 Type 2, on my DW733 Type 1 the screw/spring post thingy is in the way not enough clearance to remove the sprocket/chain drives. Tomorrow I'll try to remove motor assembly from the unit to get to the chain/sprocket for replacing (I think) one or more deformed bushings. Done that many years ago (broken sprockets and bushings), no fun. This is a known defect, sooner or later bushing(s) need to be replaced as with the rollers.
I'm doing a complete tear-down and rebuild on a DW733 Type 1. I find that if I tighten the roller brackets screws to be set; i.e., hand tight, one roller is very difficult to turn and the other will not turn at all. This, of course, before I put back the gear-chain assembly. I tried it out anyway and it resulted in quickly melting the synthetic belt. Yes, I did put the bushings in with the wide side parallel to the plane bed and lubed everything with a good grease. Thoughts?
Useful video as I had the same problem, but the music was distracting and made no sense. Thanks for making
Agreed, it was like listening to the final moments of a filled airplane cabin just prior to crashing. Annoying beyond belief.
It was in the parts where he was just taking it apart. Notice how it was sped up a little too.
You stumped me with the music Tim... Sounded really familiar, but I couldn't place the band without lyrics.

That was just a video I was looking for. Thank you.
thanks, but the random music inserts were bizarre and unnecessary

I hope this is my issue. I was doing dry wood and a knot popped up and it quite.
Already comments about the distracting "music?. I won't bother--oops, just did. Other than that it was informative
Recommend you lose the annoying music....your commentary was much more welcome.
Thank you 👍
I take that back. I need to know what number that part number is.
I'm not at home to find it but I will tell you I simply looked up drive gear for my model DeWalt planer and found it on Amazon hope that helps 😁
