This is one of those upgrades that I've gone back and forth on over the last few years. On one hand, I know how much nicer a spiral head can be - they're quieter and with carbide inserts, they last a lot longer - on the other hand, I know this won't be the last planer I'll own which makes the cost of the upgrade a bit of a sticking point. What really pushed me to do it now was the claim that these cutter heads require more power to operate and how underpowered they can make a once powerful planer seem.

This planer is a Grizzly G1033 manufactured in 1996. Here are the part's you'll need to complete this upgrade. I'd recommend ordering the replacement gasket and seal and they will likely be damaged during disassembly. All of the hardware on this machine is metric. You'll need metric wrenches, sockets, and hex keys.
