I was looking for a quality step by step installation video of the Byrd Tool Shelix helical style head for the DeWalt DW735 planer and was surprised to not find the type of video that was straight and to the point, detailed and not 20-30 mins long. Hopefully this will help you.
Short test at the end of the video.

Good video... One comment, I printed out the installation instructions supplied on Shelix's website. I was following their instructions to a ''T". When I got the old head removed, I wanted a break, so I went across my shop to wash hands to go grab a sandwich. I grabbed a bottle of hand cleaner, and it slipped out of my hands, sliding down behind a cabinet. I could see the plastic bottle lying on its side, but I couldn't reach it. (Be patient. The story has a point.) Pissed that I had been so clumsy, and not wanting the cleaner to slowly run out the open "squirter" and under the cabinet, I wrestled the 100 lb.+ cabinet away from the wall and retrieved the wayward bottle... But wait! There was something shiney lying behind the cabinet. It was a washer, a thick washer with somewhat beveled edges. I had no idea where it had come from. but like probably anyone with a shop, I'm always finding little treasures that had been missing for months or longer. I threw the washer in my bin of random washers. I had my sandwich and came back to the installation. when I was putting the machine back together, it seemed like something was missing where the nut and pin were. I poured over the instructions and found that I had missed no steps. So, I came in and checked the Shelix installation videos on youTube . At 3:14 you gave the instruction that Shelix missed - "Remove the bushing." ... Then it all came together. I hadn't known about the bushing, and in my pounding to get the old cutterhead out I had launched the bushing across my shop, and underneath the cabinet. And had I not dropped the bottle behind the cabinet I certainly would have never found the bushing that distance from the planer. I'm not sure what kind of catastrophe would have occurred while running the planer without the bushing, but I'm sure that there would have been one.

Great video and videos you share with you tube. I cannot advocate enough the value of thermo dynamics for removal installation of sealed bearings. A slight amount of heat to bearing carrier surfaces, i.e. support case by heat gun and outer race drift , i.e. socket, pipe, etc might improve cutter shaft removal and install. Cold housing, hammered shaft may cause bearing inner race "micro-spaulding and affect bearing life. Just sharing personal experience here. Keep on.
@KrisDeVo

I agree. A little heat could have gone a long way. Thanks for your input Mike.

Snap ring pliers are absolutely indispensable!!! I didn't even bother trying needle nose, I saw on a couple of videos that it was a nightmare. Cheap pair of snap ring pliers is $6 at Harbor Freight. I sprung for the $15 pair. Hardest part was getting the old head out. REALLY had to whale on it to get bearings to release from housing. So I thought getting new bearings in would be awful. It wasn't, they went right in! Shellix bearings must be a couple thousandths smaller.

Excellent to-the-point video. A big help. Thank you so much for making it. The only thing I would change is to Not beat on the helical gear. I removed my helical gear before removing the cutter head from the planer. I was planning on using a hex bolt of the same thread size as the helical gear to beat on, but just happened to have a piece of round Hickory shovel handle slightly smaller than the bearing and that worked great. cheers

I just installed my Shelix. Had it sitting on the bench for 6 months, after a bad experience with a shelix cutter head for my 6 inch Grizzly jointer, I was hesitant. I finally did it. Your video was definitely a welcome watch, it made the installation a breeze. I had a piece of highly figured knotty oak laying around, and gave a smooth surface in a single pass. Impressed. Only one problem for me, was the bearings that Byrd pre-installed were bad, squeaking on first run. I had the same issue with my 6 inch jointer head. I had to replace both of those bearings as well. I don't trust Byrd at this point to send me bearings, I will just buy them elsewhere. Then I will get to remove the whole thing and replace the bearings and install it again. LOL

I've watched a lot of these videos to unsure I didn't miss anything before and after I installed my helical head. I think you're the only one I've seen that mentions to re-coat the drive shaft with grease. Most people doing this upgrade probably know to do this, however, I'm not sure I did. Probably will dissemble and and check things over this weekend. Plus I am getting some not-so-good sounds after it runs for a few minutes. Kind of concerned with that.

@KrisDeVo
@KrisDeVo 3 года назад
The non oem definitely effects the stops and the depth gauge. Its 1/16 smaller I belive. Because its smaller the work piece is a further distance to the cutter when it contacts the rollers. It is easier to install only because you don't have to remove all the cutter knives to install. Hope that helps. Thanks

Awesome instructional video. I recently replaced my DW734 blades for the 3rd time I believe (maybe 4). Could have bought the Shelix w/ that $150 I spent (if they make one for the DW734). My next upgrade is going to be the DW735 to get the extra 1/2” in width then I’ll purchase the Shelix Cutter Head. My question is, I saw you installing the 48 cutter blades using your fingers. Aren’t they razor sharp? With the regular blades you use the tool magnet to avoid cutting yourself. Just wondering how you avoid getting nicked by those.
@KrisDeVo

Don’t buy the DeWalt. It’s overpriced to begin with. Add in the helical cutter head and you have an overpriced pos. I bought the Magnum, it’s a 4 post helical cutter head for way less. DeWalt has priced itself out of the market on this tool.

@@KrisDeVo: hi, Kris. I paid $700 CDN for the Magnum. The DeWalt is about $100-$150 more, plus you have to buy the helical head. I saw the aftermarket cutter heads going for $400 plus. So $700 VS $1200+. I can’t see the value in it considering they cut the same dimensions and have a 15 amp. motor. I’m a huge DeWalt guy. Over 90% of what I own is DeWalt. Not only is the price point off, so is the warranty. I’ve got a five years parts and labour on the Magnum. DeWalt offers a 1 year. But it begs the question, What did i miss here? Please let me know.

With 10 mins of research online I could only find the Magnum planer for sale and people asking if its good. On the opposite end of that spectrum is the DeWalt 735 which is the most proven mobile planer made. We have run probably 100s of thousands of board feet through a old beat up DeWalt 734 over years and years. Im assuming you are not using this it to make a living. I buy cheap when I can and when it counts I buy right. No question will I spend money for a quality proven product I don't have to think about or worry. A warranty is only as good as the product. As Chris Farley said in Tommy Boy, I could take a dump in a box and put a warranty on it but that doesn't meant its a quality product. When it counts my motto is, buy it nice or buy it twice....
