DeWalt 865909-00 — protective cover (original DeWalt)

Keep your planer’s exposed components safe and working with the original DeWalt 865909-00 protective cover. This hard plastic guard installs over the designated housing area on compatible DeWalt planers / thicknessers, protecting the cutter area and nearby fasteners from dust and accidental contact while restoring the tool’s intended shielding. The part is listed in DeWalt parts diagrams as “guard” / “protective cover” (part 865909-00).

Example models shown in DeWalt parts lists that use part 865909-00 include DW1161 (Type 1/Type 2), DW1163 and D27300 (planer / thicknesser series). If your tool’s parts diagram shows item number 477 or a “guard / cover” with the same part number, this is the matching replacement.

Installation notes: the cover replaces the original guard and mounts using the tool’s existing fasteners (the parts diagram lists adjacent nuts, bolts and washers), so you’ll typically re-use the hardware shown in the diagram when fitting the new piece. Inspect the mating surfaces for broken tabs before fitting to ensure a secure seat.

This is the genuine DeWalt replacement part designed to restore the original fit and function for the models referenced.
