WARNING:

Read and understand all instructions. Failure to follow all instructions listed below, may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious personal injury.

Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool will increase the risk of electric shock.

Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord to carry the tools or pull the plug from an outlet. Keep cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Replace damaged cords immediately. Damaged cords increase the risk of electric shock.

When operating a power tool outside, use an outdoor extension cord marked “W-A” or “W”. These cords are rated for outdoor use and reduce the risk of electric shock.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Keep your work area clean and well lit. Cluttered benches and dark areas invite accidents.

Do not operate power tools in explosive atmospheres, such as in the presence of flammable liquids, gases, or dust. Power tools create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

Keep bystanders, children, and visitors away while operating a power tool. Distractions can cause you to lose control. Personal Safety

10. Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or

jewelry. Contain long hair. Keep your hair, clothing, and gloves away from moving parts. Loose clothes, jewelry, or long hair can be caught in moving parts. Electrical Safety

Double insulated tools are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other.) This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install a polarized outlet. Do not change the plug in any way. Double insula-

11. Avoid accidental starting. Be sure switch is off

before plugging in. Carrying tools with your finger on the switch or plugging in tools that have the switch on invites accidents.

12. Remove adjusting keys or wrenches before turning the tool on. A wrench or a key that is left

attached to a rotating part of the tool may result in personal injury. tion eliminates the need for the three wire grounded power cord and grounded power supply system.

Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when operating a power tool. Do not use tool while tired or under the influence of drugs, alcohol, or medication. A moment of inattention while operating power tools may result in serious personal injury.

13. Do not overreach. Keep proper footing and balance at all times. Proper footing and balance

enables better control of the tool in unexpected situations. Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces such as pipes, radiators, ranges and refrigera-

14. Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, hard hat, or

hearing protection must be used for appropriate conditions. Ordinary eye or sun glasses are NOT eye protection.

21. Check for misalignment or binding of moving

parts, breakage of parts, and any other condition that may affect the tools operation. If damaged, have the tool serviced before using. Many accidents are caused by poorly maintained tools. Tool Use and Care

22. Use only accessories that are recommended by

the manufacturer for your model. Accessories that may be suitable for one tool, may become hazardous when used on another tool.

15. Use clamps or other practical way to secure and

support the workpiece to a stable platform. Holding the work by hand or against your body is unstable and may lead to loss of control. SERVICE

16. Do not force tool. Use the correct tool for your

application. The correct tool will do the job better and safer at the rate for which it is designed.

23. Tool service must be performed only by qualified

repair personnel. Service or maintenance performed by unqualified personnel could result in a risk of injury.

17. Do not use tool if switch does not turn it on or

off. Any tool that cannot be controlled with the switch is dangerous and must be repaired.

24. When servicing a tool, use only identical

replacement parts. Follow instructions in the Maintenance section of this manual. Use of unauthorized parts or failure to follow Maintenance instructions may create a risk of electric shock or injury.

18. Disconnect the plug from the power source

before making any adjustments, changing accessories, or storing the tool. Such preventive safety measures reduce the risk of starting the tool accidentally. USE PROPER EXTENSION CORD: Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and overheating. Table 1 shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the heavier the cord.

19. Store idle tools out of reach of children and

other untrained persons. Tools are dangerous in the hands of untrained users.

20. Maintain tools with care. Keep cutting tools

sharp and clean. Properly maintained tools with sharp cutting edges are less likely to bind and are easier to control. Table 1. Minimum gage for cord Volts 120 V Ampere Rating More Than Not More Than

25 ft. Total length of cord in feet 50 ft. 100 ft. 150 ft. AWG

DO NOT let comfort or familiarity with product (gained from repeated use) replace strict adherence to planer safety rules. If you use this tool unsafely or incorrectly, you can suffer serious personal injury.

Use only sharp blades. Handle the blades very carefully.

Be sure the blade installation bolts are securely tightened before operation.

Hold the tool firmly with both hands.

Keep hands away from rotating parts.

Before using the tool on an actual workpiece, let it run for a while. Watch for vibration or wobbling that could indicate poor installation or a poorly balanced blade.

Rags, cloth, cord, string and the like should never be left around the work area.

Make sure the blade is not contacting the workpiece before the switch is turned on.

Avoid cutting nails. Inspect for and remove all nails from the workpiece before operation.

Wait until the blade attains full speed before cutting.

CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before carrying out any work on the tool.

CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before adjusting or checking function on the tool.

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. 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.

Slip the heel of the adjusting plate into the groove of the drum. 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.

8. Tighten the three hex flange head bolts (with the

socket wrench provided) and hand rotate the drum to check clearances between the blade ends and the tool body.

9. Check the three hex flange head bolts for final tightness.

10. Repeat procedures 1 - 9 for other blade.

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.

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. 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.

EN0004-1 (A) Front base (Movable shoe) (B) Rear base (Stationary shoe) Correct setting (A) (B) Although this side view cannot show it, the edges of the blades run perfectly parallel to the rear base surface. Cause: One or both blades fails to have edge parallel to rear base line. Nicks in surface Gouging at start (A) (B) Cause: One or both blade edges fails to protrude enough in relation to rear base line. (B) Cause: One or both blade edges protrudes too far in relation to rear base line. Gouging at end (A) OPERATION Nozzle assembly (optional accessory)

Use of the special nozzle assembly will minimize chip scatter, making for a cleaner work area. The nozzle assembly may be attached after the chip cover on the tool body is removed. When slipping on the assembly, fit the pin on it into the rear cover hole. Use the chip cover screws to fasten it in place. 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)

To make a stepped cut as shown in the figure, use the edge fence (guide rule). 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.

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.

1. V groove

Adjust the edge fence until it comes in contact with the side of the workpiece, then secure it by tightening the screw.

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 (11/ 32”). 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). CAUTION: Always be sure that the tool is switched off and unplugged before attempting to perform inspection or maintenance. Replacing carbon brushes

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 chip cover.
