Default Delta 22-580 Planer - How to Clean Bed Rollers

I have the delta 22-580 and it is no longer effectively feeding the
stock. One of the maintenance steps is to clean the rollers. They do
appear to have a great deal of fine dust, and thus not gripping the
wood.

the manual says to clean them with soap and water, but my problem is I
can't make them turn so i can clean the underside of the roller. Any
ideas? The manual doesn't tell me how, and I couldn't find a post on
how to do it either.

thanks, Stuart

I have the 22-540, check your blades! Remember the blades compete with the
rollers for moving the stock. Blades get dull, they will pull the stock back
against the rollers. Mine shredded the rollers! I had no idea they wre that
dull.
