Removingor installingmini planer blades
CAUTION :
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unpluggedbefore removing or installing
the blade.
To remove the blades on the drum, un-
screw the three installation bolts with the
socket wrench. The drum cover comes off
together with the blades.
1. Remove the existing blade, if the tool has been in use, carefully clean the drum sur-
faces and the drum cover.
2. Loosely attach the adjust plate to the set plate with the pan head screws and set the
mini planer blade on the gauge base
so that the cutting edge of the blade is perfectly
flush with the inside flank of the gauge plate.
3. Set the adjust platehet plate on the
gauge base
so that the planer blade
locating lugs on the
set plate rest in the
mini planer blade groove, then press in
the heel of the adjust plate flush with
the back side of the gauge base and
tighten the pan head screws.
4. It is important that the blade sits flush
with the inside flank
of the gauge plate,
the planer blade locating lugs
sit in the
blade groove and the heel of the adjust
plate is flush with the back side of the
gauge base. Check this alignment care-
fully to ensure uniform cutting.

5. Slip the heel of the adjust plate into the groove of the drum.
6. Set the drum cover over the adjust plate/set plate and screw in the three hex flange
head bolts
so that a gap exists between the drum and the set plate to slide the mini
planer blade into position. The blade will be positioned by the planer blade locating
lugs
on the set plate.

7. The blade's lengthwise adjustment will
need to be manually positioned
so that
the blade ends are clear and equidistant
from the housing on one side and the
metal bracket on the other.
8. Tighten the three hex flange head bolts
(with the socket wrench provided) and
hand rotate the drum to check clear-
ances between the blade ends and the
tool body.
9. Check the three hex flange head bolts
for final tightness.
IO. Repeat procedures 1-9 for other blade.
Planer blade adjustment
(optional accessory)
To install the blades, first clean out all
chips or foreign matter adhering to the
drum or blades. Use blades of the same
dimensions and weight, or drum oscilla-
tion/vibration will result, causing poor
planing action and, eventually, tool break-
down.
Place the blade on the gauge base
so that
the t.ade edge
is perfectly flush with the
inside edge of the gauge plate. Place the
adjusting plate on the blade, then simply
press inthe heel of the adjusting plate flush
with the back side of the gauge base and
tighten two screws on the adjusting plate.
Now slip the heel of the adjusting plate
into the drum groove, then fit the drum
cover on
it. Tighten the three installation
bolts evenly and alternately with the
socket wrench.

For the correct planer blade setting
Your planing surface will end up rough and uneven, unless the blade is set properly and
securely. The blade must
be mounted so that the cutting edge is absolutely level, that is,
parallel to the surface of the rear base. Below are some examples of proper and improper
settings .
(A) Front base (Movable shoe)
(6) Rear base (Stationary shoe)
Although this side view cannot show
it, the edges of the blades run perfectly
parallel tothe rear base surface.
Cause: One or both blades fails to
have edge parallel to rear base
line.
Nicks

~~~&~( Cause : One or both blade edges pro-
trudes too far

Adjusting depth of cut
Depth of cut may be adjusted by simply
turning the knobon the front of the tool.

Switch action
To start the tool, simply pull the trigger.
Release the trigger tostop. For continuous
operation, pull the trigger and then push in
Lock button
-
the lock button. To stop the tool from the
locked position, pull the trigger fully, then
release
it.
CAUTION :
Before plugging in the tool, always check to see that the trigger switch actuates properly
and returns tothe
"OFF" position when released.
Planingoperation
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 pres-
sure on the front
of tool at the start of
planing, and
at the back at the end of
planing. Planingwill be easier if you incline
the workpiece instationary fashion,
so that
you can plane somewhat downhill.
The speed and depth of cut determine the
kind of finish. The power planer keeps cut-
ting
at a speed that will not result in jam-
ming by chips. For rough cutting, the depth of cut can be increased, while for
a good
finish you should reducethe depth of cut and advance the tool more slowly.
8

Shiplapping
To make a stepped cut as shown at the right, use the edge
fence.
Draw
a cutting line on the workpiece. In-
sert the edge fence into the hole in the
front
of the tool. Align the blade edge with
the cutting line.
Adjust the edge fence until
it comes in con-
tact with the side of the workpiece, then
secure it
by tightening the screw.
You may wish
o add to the I
ngth of the
fence
by attaching an extra piece of wood.
Convenient holes are provided in the fence
for this purpose.
NOTE :
When planing, move the tool with the edge fence flush with the side of the workpiece.
Otherwise uneven planing may result.
Max. shiplapping depth
is 20 mm (3/4").
9

Chamfering
To make a cut as shown at the right, align the "V" groove in
the front base with the edge of the workpiece and plane
it
as shown in the figure (A).
Sharpening planer blades
Always keep your blades sharp for the best
performance possible. Use the sharpening
holder to remove nicks and produce
a fine
edge.
First, loosen the two wing nuts
on the
holder and insert the blades (A) and
(B)
so that they contact the sides (C) and (D).
Then tighten the wing nuts.
10

Immerse the dressing stone in water for 2
or 3 minutes before sharpening. Hold the
holder
so that the blades both contact the
dressing stone for simultaneous sharpening
at the same angle.
11

MAINTENANCE
CAUTION :
Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unpluggedbefore attempting to perform
inspection or maintenance.
Replacing carbon brushes
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 Makita carbon brushes.
Use
a screwdriver to removethe chip cover
as shown in the figure.
Use
a screwdriver to remove the brush
holder caps. Take out the worn carbon
brushes, insert the new ones and secure the
brush holder caps.
