I am just a woodworker hobbyist. Mostly make tables from oak, ash or walnut.
Anyway I went to use my 13″ Craftsman planer today and the height would not adjust. Checked underside and idler sprocket and chain had fallen off. Well I can’t for the life of me figure out how route chain again. It just seems way to long no may how I put it. Idler won’t take up the slack.
I have searched everywhere for a assembly diagram but no luck.
Does anybody out there have this unit that could take a picture of the underside so I can figure chain route. Manual has nothing.
Thanks in advance.

Try this.
I love a good challenge.
You made it so damn simple. Thanks. Now I just have to reset carriage height so it's parallel.
LOL! Well, it comes easy for me. I was a mechanical designer in a past life. Took me just a couple of minutes to work it out but years of experience shows you how to logic it out.
