Hi Coley - That's fantastic! - Thanks very much, it's really decent of you - I'll let you know how it fits up when I get it. Cheers Teddy

Hi Coley Your middle photo looks to me like the sawdust/shavings extraction hood part which I might be able to adapt to fit my 636. If so (and if you have no further use for it) would you be willing to part with it for a fee? Thanks very much....

Hi Coley, I don't suppose you (or anyone else reading this?) has got a spare sawdust/shavings extraction funnel for the 636 or 637? I've got the 636 but no funnel and whilst I could possibly make one, like most people, my problem is time with loads of other more productive and fun stuff to...

Thanks Steve - that would be great! Am quite happy to wait until you've got the opportunity and the time to let me have the info. ....and your recommendation for the 637 design as being better is precisely the guidance I was hoping for - so I'll sit tight and wait to hear from you.

Yes Rob - that's right Mine is the one with the cast alloy tables - and with the handwheel missing. Strange that a missing handwheel seems to be a 'common' problem with this machine as well. Maybe there's a forgotten storeroom somewhere in France (or somewhere in 'tool heaven') stuffed floor to...

Thanks Mick - but that link is for the modern 'new' kity 2636 machine and isn't the one I'm after............

Thanks Marcos & Mick, The reply I got already from NMA wasn't much help:- "Sorry but there are no manuals or parts drawings for this model anymore. The only parts available are the 710 x 6mm drive belt - nothing else". But they did suggest that some of the members on this site may have old...

I've got an old Kity 636 planer/thicknesser which seems to be in perfect condition as far as I can tell. It's been stood for a few years and I don't want to risk running it until I have properly checked it over, as I don't want to cause any damage to it. I've also never used this type of machine...
