ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:
- Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before carrying out any work on the tool.
Removing or installing planer blades
CAUTION:
- Tighten the blade installation bolts carefully when attaching the blades to the tool. A loose installation bolt can be dangerous. Always check to see they are tightened securely.
- Handle the blades very carefully. Use gloves or rags to protect your fingers or hands when removing or installing the blades.
- Use only the Makita wrench provided to remove or install the blades. Failure to do so may result in overtightening or insufficient tightening of the installation bolts. This could cause an injury.
For tool with conventional planer blades (Fig. 7 - 9)
To remove the blades on the drum, unscrew the installation bolts with the socket wrench. The drum cover comes off together with the blades.
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 oscillation/vibration will result, causing poor planing action and, eventually, tool breakdown.
Place the blade on the gauge base so that the blade edge is perfectly flush with the inside edge of the gauge plate. Place the adjusting plate on the blade, then simply press in the 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 all the installation bolts evenly and alternately with the socket wrench.
Repeat the above procedures for the other blade.
- Remove the existing blade, if the tool has been in use, carefully clean the drum surfaces and the drum cover. To remove the blades on the drum, unscrew the three installation bolts with the socket wrench. The drum cover comes off together with the blades. (Fig. 11)
- To install the blades, loosely attach the adjusting 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.
- Set the adjusting plate/set 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 adjusting plate flush with the back side of the gauge base and tighten the pan head screws.
- 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 adjusting plate is flush with the back side of the gauge base. Check this alignment carefully to ensure uniform cutting.
- Slip the heel of the adjusting plate into the groove of the drum. (Fig. 12)
- Set the drum cover over the adjusting 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.
- 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.
- Tighten the three hex flange head bolts (with the socket wrench provided) and rotate the drum to check clearances between the blade ends and the tool body.
- Check the three hex flange head bolts for final tightness.
- Repeat procedures 1 - 9 for the other blade.
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. Refer to some examples below for proper and improper settings.
(A) Front base (Movable shoe)
(B) Rear base (Stationary shoe)
Correct setting Although this side view cannot show it, the

edges of the blades run perfectly parallel to the rear base surface.
Nicks in surface Cause: One or both blades fails to have edge

parallel to rear base line.
Gouging at start Cause: One or both blade edges fails to

protrude enough in relation to rear base line.
Gouging at end Cause: One or both blade edges protrudes

too far in relation to rear base line.
EN0004-1

For tool with nozzle
Attach the dust bag onto the nozzle. The nozzle is tapered. When attaching the dust bag, push it onto the nozzle firmly as far as it will go to prevent it from coming off during operation. (Fig. 16)
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.
NOTE:
- If you connect a Makita vacuum cleaner to this tool, more efficient and cleaner operations can be performed.
OPERATION
Hold the tool firmly with one hand on the knob and the other hand on the switch handle when performing the tool.
Planing operation (Fig. 17)
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) (Fig. 18)
To make a stepped cut as shown in the figure, use the edge fence (guide rule) which is obtained as accessory. (Fig. 19)
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. (Fig. 20)
Adjust the edge fence until it comes in contact with the side of the workpiece, then secure it by tightening the screw. (Fig. 21)
When planing, move the tool with the edge fence flush with the side of the workpiece. Otherwise uneven planing may result.
Maximum shiplapping (rabbeting) depth is 9 mm. (Fig. 22)
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).
Chamfering (Fig. 23 & 24)
To make a chamfering cut as shown in the figure, align the "V" groove in the front base with the edge of the workpiece and plane it.
MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
• Always be sure that the tool is switched off and the battery cartridge is removed before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance.
- Never use gasoline, benzine, thinner, alcohol or the like. Discoloration, deformation or cracks may result.
Sharpening the planer blades
For conventional blades only (Fig. 25)
Always keep your blades sharp for the best performance possible. Use the sharpening holder (optional accessory) to remove nicks and produce a fine edge. (Fig. 26) 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. (Fig. 27) Immerse the dressing stone in water for 2 or 3 minutes before sharpening. Hold the holder so that the both blades contact the dressing stone for simultaneous sharpening at the same angle.
Replacing carbon brushes (Fig. 28)
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. (Fig. 29)
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.
To maintain product SAFETY and RELIABILITY, repairs, any other maintenance or adjustment should be performed by Makita Authorized or Factory Service Centers, always using Makita replacement parts.
