manual abstract
Cause: One or both blades fails to have edge parallel to rear base line. Cause: One or both blade edges fails to protrude enough in relation to rear base line. Cause: One or both blade edges protrudes too far in relation to rear base line. Dust bag (accessory) 1. Dust bag 2. Chip discharge opening 2 1 007687 Attach the dust bag onto the chip discharge opening. The chip discharge opening is tapered. When attaching the dust bag, push it onto the chip discharge opening firmly as far as it will go to prevent it from coming off during operation. When the dust bag is about half full, remove the dust bag from the tool and pull the fastener out. Empty the dust bag of its contents, tapping it lightly so as to remove particles adhering to the insides which might hamper further collection. 6 1 1 Fastener NOTE: • If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to this tool, more efficient and cleaner operations can be performed. Connecting a vacuum cleaner 1. Vacuum cleaner 1 When you wish to perform clean planing operation, connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to your tool. Then connect a hose of the vacuum cleaner to the chip discharge opening as shown in the figures. Elbow (optional accessory) 1 1. Elbow Use of elbow allows change of chip discharge direction to perform cleaner work. Install the elbow (optional accessory) on the tool by just slipping on it. To remove it, just pull it out. OPERATION Planing operation 12 1. Start 2. End 007646 First, rest the tool front base flat upon the workpiece surface without the blades making any contact. Switch on and wait until the blades attain full speed. Then move the tool gently forward. Apply pressure on the front of tool at the start of planing, and at the back at the end of planing. Planing will be easier if you incline the workpiece in stationary fashion, so that you can plane somewhat downhill. The speed and depth of cut determine the kind of finish. The power planer keeps cutting at a speed that will not result in jamming by chips. For rough cutting, the depth of cut can be increased, while for a good finish you should reduce the depth of cut and advance the tool more slowly. Shiplapping (Rabbeting) 002580 To make a stepped cut as shown in the figure, use the edge fence (guide rule). Adjust the shiplapping depth using a depth guide (accessory). Draw a cutting line on the workpiece. Insert the edge fence into the hole in the front of the tool. Align the blade edge with the cutting line. 7 8 1 3 2 007647 Install the edge fence on the tool and secure it with the washer and thumb screw (A). Loosen the thumb screw (B) and adjust the edge fence until it comes in contact with the side of the workpiece. Then tighten the thumb screw (B) securely. 1 2 3 007648 When planing, move the tool with the edge fence flush with the side of the workpiece. Otherwise uneven planing may result. CAUTION: • The blade edge should be made to protrude outside slightly (0.2 mm - 0.4 mm (0.01 inch. - 0.015 inch. ) for shiplapping. 0.2 - 0.4mm (0.01" - 0.015") 007715 You may wish to add to the length of the fence by attaching an extra piece of wood. Convenient holes are provided in the fence for this purpose, and also for attaching an extension guide (optional accessory). 007714 Chamfering 003634 To make a chamfering cut as shown in the figure, align one of three "V" grooves in the front base with the edge of the workpiece and plane it. 1 2 3 007650 Use of chamfering rule (optional accessory) assures more tool stability when shiplapping. 1 2 007653 To install the chamfering rule, remove two screws on both sides of the front of the tool and set the depth of cut to 4 mm. And then install it on the front base of the tool and secure it the screws as shown in the figure. 1. Chamfering rule 2. Screws 1. V groove (medium amount of chamfering) 2.

Edge of chamfering rule MAINTENANCE CAUTION: • Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. Replacing carbon brushes 1 1. Limit mark Remove and check the carbon brushes regularly. Replace when they wear down to the limit mark. Keep the carbon brushes clean and free to slip in the holders. Both carbon brushes should be replaced at the same time. Use only identical carbon brushes. Use a screwdriver to remove the rear cover. 1. Screwdriver 2.
